Goal

The IIU team wanted to gain first-hand experience with the newly released Apple CareKit framework for iOS devices.

Summary + Outcome

  2. Progress Card includes a Symptom and Measurement tracker for logging physical metrics like weight and heart rate (with the potential for Apple Watch integration)
  3. Insight Dashboard module examines, for example, the relationship between tasks and symptoms
  4. Connect module lets users share their health data with medical professionals and family members
