Asthma app?

Hi all.

Went for lung function tests recently, and they want me to record my peak flow 4 times a day. At the moment, I record my peak flow directly into the Apple Health app, but I can't print it out to give to anyone. Can anyone recommend an iOS app that links to Health and allows export without having to pay a subscription (export seems to be one of the things not included in the free versions). If it has FEV1, so much the better - I have an asma1 electronic peak flow meter which measures that as well, so I might as well record it.

Hope you're all keeping well and relatively sane.

I use an app called Asthma. It’s perfect for recording Peak Flow and reliever use. Links directly with the Apple Health app too. Not entirely sure about exporting the data though

Hi, I use PEF log which has a black background and orange inhaler as the icon. Have used this for 15 months now. You can text, email or print off the report. My surgery asthma nurse was so impressed with the report (prints a chart and the data) that she now gets all her asthma patients to try and use it - far better than the scrappy bits of paper/ paper napkins she normally gets peak flows on! The chart is a great visual guide helping you see trends as well. It also allows you to record ore and post Med peak flows and a comments part where you can input any issue eg, in contact with an allergen, exercise, symptoms etc. There are a variety of apps. Find one that looks to have what you want to record. Good luck x

I use a app called asthma M.D. and you can link your doctor's up with it. It is just the best.

Not what you're looking for?
