The story

The journey of a lifetime needs health prep

The problem

Heat, crowds and a broken routine

Many pilgrims are older and take medicines for blood pressure or diabetes. On the trip their schedule falls apart, the heat raises the risk of dehydration and low blood sugar, and medicines brought from home have different names in Saudi Arabia. If someone gets lost in the crowd, nobody knows their medical history.

The fix

A health companion for the whole family

The app prepares you before travel with vaccines and a medicine bag, reminds you of each medicine by name and prayer time, warns you about heat based on your medicines, and gives you a medical card and an SOS button for when you need help.
