Showcasing: Left Brain Media

Left Brain Media has developed an iOS app using LiveCode that is so good I just have to share it with you.

HIV and Your Heart was co-developed by the American Heart Association and the American Academy of HIV Medicine.  “HIV and Your Heart exists to help people living with HIV make positive changes in life for better heart health and overall wellness” they say.  

Having HIV increases your risk for heart disease.  This informative app has over 90 minutes of positive, uplifting videos, from personal stories to advice from leading physicians, to help those living with HIV enjoy a long and healthy life.  You can interact with the app’s planning tool to set wellness goals and the built in tracking tool lets you follow the steps you need to take to reach those goals.

One of my favourite features of the app is how the user can chose to share the information via facebook, twitter or youtube and engage with others interested in or affected by HIV/AIDS.  Alternatively, the app has a full suite of confidentiality features; the desktop icon is just labelled ‘Your Heart’ and users can password protect the information if the wish to.

“This is a perfect example of how mobile apps are becoming part of everyday life.” says LiveCode Product Manager, Benjamin Beaumont.  

Mobile computing is one of the best ways for communities to share experiences, knowledge and ideas; the American Heart Association and the American Academy for HIV Medicine have done a brilliant job doing just that with this wonderfully instructive and interactive app.  LiveCode are proud of the small part we have played in its development.

HIV and Your Heart is a free app available to download from iTunes now.
