2. Asthmapolis Propeller Health
A self-proclaimed “autopilot” for asthma sufferers, the Propeller app focuses on taking all the guesswork and info juggling out of managing chronic lung conditions. Since so many asthma patients rely on their inhaled medication most of all, it follows that more attention should be given to exactly how it fits into your life: by using a special sensor that attaches to your inhaler, the app tracks how, when, and where you use your inhaler to find trends and compile data.
Given that the focus is pretty specific, there’s very little clutter in this app, and that makes it clear, easy, and pleasant to use.
Many people rely on preventative and rescue medication to quell an attack, but that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for alternative treatments for asthma.
