With medical technologies taking huge leaps every year, most of our health-related woes are taken care of. Doctors are successfully treating some conditions which were once incurable. However, with the advancement, the number of tasks involving the medical procedure has also increased to an overwhelming level.
Peerbits is proud to come up with an app that helps you to manage all those procedures and tasks in an easy and systematic manner. This application brings together all the components of your health report which includes your medical history, symptoms, medication, appointments, immunizations, allergies, and fitness records.
The Challenge
- Client wanted the healthkit & Fitbit data to get fetched on the application. Integration of both was quite a challenge as it would increase the complexity of the app. Moreover, to fetch data in real-time from the healthkit & Fitbit to the application was a tough job.
- Other challenge that we had to deal with was of medicine reminders. Client wanted us to include a feature in which the user would get notifications for his/her medical dose.
- Apart from that client wanted to provide encryption and decryption of data which would ensure foolproof privacy and security of user’s data.
- Client wanted us to provide multiple languages in the app.
The Solution
- To solve the first challenge our developers used Healthkit’s & Fitbits’ API to fetch all the data to the app. For the second challenge which was of medicine reminders, we synced the calendars. We added reminders according to the frequency of the dosage.
- For encryption and decryption, we used AES encryption algorithm that works parallelly across every platform such as iOS, Android, and PHP.
- To make this app available in all the languages we made a master in which we stored all the language translations for all the modules.
