NEW: Your family health history can multiply your risk for heart disease, cancer, and more. Build a shared record with your family. Free for you and everyone you add.
WHY HEALTHSCOUT WORKS BETTER THAN CHATGPT
Today’s AI chatbots can all read your health records and answer questions. But do they incorporate your family health history to give you the complete picture of your health? Do they proactively look out for treatments based on your conditions? Most importantly, do you trust them when it comes to health data privacy?
HealthScout checks all those boxes and more.
FAMILY HEALTH HISTORY
Your family health history multiplies your risk for heart disease, many cancers, and some neurodegenerative conditions. An accurate family health history can help you and your doctor prioritize screenings and prevention plans. HealthScout lets your whole family build one shared, accurate history together. One person starts it and relatives add what they know, so the record grows more complete with every family member. Share or print a PDF with all known conditions in your family and a heatmap showing when those conditions began. The family health history feature is free for you and everyone you add.
TREATMENT DISCOVERY ALERTS
New research arrives faster than anyone can follow. HealthScout matches new treatments to your specific conditions and tells you when something relevant appears. You’ll be prepared to share new treatment options at your next doctor’s appointment.
SMART QUESTIONS
HealthScout reads your records and raises the questions worth asking about your own health -- the ones you would never think of on your own. When you tap on a smart question card, HealthScout takes into account your entire health record and your family health history to produce a comprehensive, plain English answer that you can follow up on and bring to your doctor.
YOUR RECORDS, CORRECTED
Health records fall behind. You stop a medication or a diagnosis changes, and your records still have the old version. Using HealthScout’s “My Added Records,” you can make a correction and from that point forward, HealthScout will use your update instead of the outdated record.
GET STARTED IN SECONDS
Snap a photo of any lab result, imaging report, or doctor's note and start asking questions right away. Or connect your providers through Apple Health to pull your full history from 10,000+ health systems, including Kaiser, Sutter Health, LabCorp, and Quest Diagnostics. The more you add, the more HealthScout can do.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
HealthScout doesn’t require you to sign up with a new account or even collect your email address. Your data is stored on your Face ID-protected device or optionally in your personal iCloud, not HealthScout servers.

It's impressive how HealthScout considers your complete health picture. My "Wow!" moment came when HS a medication I probably should have been taking for a while -- and now I am. Neither my doctor nor I had connected dots between various test results I'd gotten from different providers over time, but HealthScout spotted the pattern immediately. I contacted my doctor, he agreed it made sense, and I'm now on the med. HealthScout is exactly what you need when you're bouncing between different specialists who each only see part of your story.As a developer, I really appreciate how HealthScout handles security. It pulls everything through Apple Health while keeping your data on your device, only sending encrypted snippets to AI when you ask questions. That architectural approach gives me confidence in using it with my health information.
Easy Update / Immediate Help

I downloaded HealthScout and unfortunately my doctor’s office was not listed as a partner in Apple Health, so I just downloaded my last records from my health provider and uploaded them into HealthScout and it instantly read the records and immediately started giving me suggestions about my health. It even asked me if I’d like it to provide me with a list of questions for my next doctor visit. Very impressive so far!
Super useful app

I really love HealthScout. It gives me plain language explanations of my personal medical situation. For example, I broke my ankle and had my 6 week checkup today. I didn’t understand the significance of the X-ray results. HS gave me a very clear explanation of how my healing is progressing. It is much better than using generic AI since it uses your own health records, so it is personalized. But it’s not sharing your info with the big AI companies.
Actually felt confident with my doctor! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Had a stubborn toe fungus for months and felt like my podiatrist wasn't listening. Used HealthScout to research my condition and prep questions before my next appointment. Game changer! For the first time I felt confident pushing back and having a real conversation about treatment options instead of just nodding along. Super easy to use and really helped me advocate for myself. Highly recommend!
FAMILY HEALTH HISTORY
At every checkup someone asks what runs in your family, and most of us guess. It matters because family health history multiplies your risk for conditions like heart disease and many cancers. With the most accurate and thorough information, you and your doctor can plan for screenings and preventative measures. HealthScout now lets your whole family build one shared, accurate history together.
Even if you already know your own risk, your kids don't, and they're depending on what you enter now. One person starts it and relatives add what they know, so the record grows more complete with every family member. HealthScout uses your family history to personalize your answers and Smart Questions, even for relatives who add nothing else. Share or print a PDF of every known condition in your family, with a heatmap showing when those conditions began. The family history feature is free for you and everyone you add.
NEW: EXTRA FACE ID LOCK
You can now require an additional Face ID check when you open HealthScout, for another layer of protection on your records.
