McJerry is a kid-friendly Android app that helps children (ages 6–16) understand asthma, practice good inhaler technique, log symptoms/medicine use, and share parent-approved information with a healthcare provider via a concise, exportable report.
McJerry believes in helping individuals understand and stay in control of their medical conditions regardless of age and ability, and this is reflected in our app's equitable design.
McJerry values privacy and confidentiality of any data, health data included. Users can access the app only through a secure authenticated account with unique identifiers (email for parents/providers, username for children), and data is only shared when explicitly permitted.
