Ratings and Reviews
Great app but can’t enter birthdate before 2011!
I was shown the app by my son’s respiratory nurse today at our appointment. It looks really useful but I haven’t been able to enter my son’s details as I can’t register with a date of birth before 2011. Would also love to see the app accommodate multiple user accounts in future (eg. My son and I both have asthma but are on different treatments - I’d love to keep track of both plans in the one app).
Developer Response ,
Hi Sarah,
I'm glad you are enjoying the app.
Asthmahub is usually recommended for adults with Asthma. If you would like to use an app for your son I would suggest using Asthmahub for Parents, you will be able to put in his date of birth in this app with no problem. If you have any difficulties please email us at: support@healthhub.wales
Great app!
This app is fantastic! GP appointments are often short and they don’t have time to go through the ins and outs of your asthma all the time so app fills lots of gaps in info for me. It’s also so useful to track my asthma and identify possible triggers I’d not thought of like the weather for example. The way it breaks down the different levels of your asthma both qualitatively and quantitatively is also incredibly helpful.
Great if it worked
Thought this was good at first but too many glitches make it impossible to use. I’d entered the wrong ‘best’ peak flow reading, but no option to edit that so had to delete my account and start from scratch. Now a week later cant access my diary at all, just the wheel of doom on a page saying I need to update my readings. Tried phone reboot, tried reinstalling the app, now I can’t even get past the login page. My iOS is up to date and other apps are fine.
