This app began the morning my brother had a stroke at 31. He came back. What saved him can now stay with you.
On August 31, 2025, my brother Deivid had a stroke at 31 during a morning run. No chronic conditions. No warning signs. He recovered fully because his wife recognized the signs and acted fast.
Months later, that experience — the fear, the relief, and the hope — became By The River, my submission to the Swift Student Challenge 2026, where it was selected as one of the Winners.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
• Drag facial sliders to experience facial drooping firsthand
• Tilt the iPad to lift one arm — while the other stays down
• Speak into the microphone and hear how stroke affects speech clarity
• Call for help and understand why every second matters
WHY IT MATTERS
Stroke kills one person every 3.5 seconds and is the second leading cause of death worldwide — yet most people cannot recognize its early signs. The FAST protocol exists to change that, but awareness alone is not enough. People need to feel it.
By The River doesn't just teach the FAST protocol. It creates emotional memory: the kind that stays with you when it matters most.
BUILT WITH CARE
Original illustrations, original music, and Apple's native frameworks — SwiftUI, CoreMotion, AVFoundation, and Speech — with no third-party libraries. Every visual, every sound, every interaction was crafted to honor a real story.
Swift Student Challenge 2026 Winner. Invited to attend WWDC26 at Apple Park.
