Apple CareKit is live in the Glow Nurture and Glow Baby apps!

Recall that in March, Glow Nurture and Glow Baby were chosen as two of four launch partner apps for Apple CareKit. We were so thrilled, we ate apple pie. And less than a month later, both the Glow Nurture and Glow Baby apps are already leveraging CareKit’s amazing Connect module.

CareKit’s Connect module enables fast, easy sharing of health information among family members, medical professionals, and caregivers of all kinds. 

The Glow Nurture and Glow Baby apps now use smart notifications to indicate when health updates might be important enough to share with others. For example, if a Glow Baby user logs a high fever, she will receive a notification directing her to the Care Team page where she can easily alert doctors and other caregivers. For Glow Nurture, Care Team notifications will surface when a user indicates that she feels sick and when important prenatal appointments are coming up.

Our mission of empowering women with information about health continues to drive everything we do at Glow, including our CareKit integration. Better and easier sharing of information with all caretakers—doctors, nurses, partners, parents, babysitters—is yet another important way to take control of one’s health. And that’s what we’re all about.
