Empowering cancer patients and their carers
CANCERAID IS YOUR DIGITAL CHAMPIONFeeling disorganised, confused, isolated or overwhelmed by a cancer diagnosis? You are not alone.CancerAid was founded by two oncologists to assist you in managing cancer. The app is designed to help you take control over physical and psychological side effects from the moment of diagnosis, through treatment and during recovery. The CancerAid app lets you keep track of your diagnostic and treatment information, access medically reliable information to learn more about your condition, track and manage your side effects, nominate your care team and gain access to a motivational community, all in one place.Use the app in the comfort of your own home, in the waiting room, during appointments or out and about. CancerAid is available when you need it the most, anywhere and anytime.Be Better Equipped to Discuss Side Effects with Your DoctorIt’s ok not to be ok. The CancerAid app makes it easy to record and monitor symptoms and medication use over time. We understand that its not always possible to log symptoms when they occur so we have made it possible to track in real time and retrospectively. Research has shown that patients who record their symptoms and share these with their clinical care team experience improved outcomes. Refer back to the app when speaking to your nurse or doctor to help them better understand your body changes and feels. If you are not experiencing any side effects or symptoms, great! Let your care team know that you are feeling well by entering a low severity in the app. Logging your wellness regularly is as important as logging your symptoms, and helps physicians make decisions on your treatment. Who’s in your corner? You can nominate your care team and loved ones with the Champion feature to keep them in the loop of how you are going. In your CancerAid journal, you can share your experiences and milestones in a secure place available to you and your nominated Champions. Champions let you share information with all your loved ones at once.Support for Caregivers Cancer is not a one man disease, and we recognise that caregivers also need useful tools and support through the cancer timeline. If you are caring for someone affected by cancer you can request to follow their progress in the app so that you know when they need you the most. The app is filled with helpful resources for caregivers. The in-app community lets you read other carer’s tips and experiences, the cancer profile holds information on specific cancer types, treatments and what to expect from them. CancerAid is One of the Most Trusted Cancer Resources AvailableCancerAid is endorsed by several leading Cancer Hospitals, Health Insurance Providers, and Cancer Charities. CancerAid has been awarded Best Start up Creating Social Impact by Richard Branson of Virgin Group and Best Global Startup by Steve Wozniak, Co-Founder of Apple.The app has been featured as a flagship health app in a recent Apple press release and has been featured on Shark Tank Australia, TechCrunch, CNBC and The Huffington Post.We have fixed an issue that could potentially cause the app to crash.

This app got fund from shark tank. Now, it has a terrible condition. No idea why..
Dunno wut Andrew predicated his belief that this would take off in the US. What I can tell u however: cancer patients don't give 2 $hits about mucking round in yet another social media startup hoping to be the Facebook of one niche or another in an ecosystem they don't understand. But let me illuminate the 2 most poignant pitfalls of this dumpster-fire : 1) Licensing Model: costspoorly aimed. No providers, no adoption. Public Grants > Private $ 2) HIPAA: u will get eviscerated. I'm out :/
Do not like it. It feels repetitive Nd it's just another thing a doctor needs to look at. We have patients portals for t b is an dangerous apps that have peer support. I a as surprised when I saw how this was expected by shark tank. Thanks for tryinging
Didn't have my Bone Marrow Sarcoma cancer illness
My treatments not listed, so no information on that front. The information from my Consultants and the NHS is far superior.
Too many words. No real action
Crashes on both Android 7 & and 10 devices. Previously fine.
Subtle, tasteful app with much info going for it. Thank you.
This is a great app I only wish it had more languages and had a better advertising so I will hear about it before
The information and articles provided in this app are fantastic. An endless amount of useful information for cancer patients and their families. Unfortunately the sign up process is not that easy. Hospitals in New Zealand are not listed, nor are all the different types of Head and Neck Cancers. Maybe this will be added and improved upon overtime.
