134 - Talitha Humes on Managing Medication with Multiple Sclerosis
In this episode, I chat with Talitha Humes about her app which enables users to easily identify and take the prescribed medications required for their chronic and auto-immune conditions.
After receiving a diagnosis of multiple sclerosis in 2005, Talitha realized that her medications were complex and increasingly difficult to manage accurately. Despite trying various available apps to assist her with managing her tablets, none worked well for Talitha, which began the journey of developing an app that would suit her needs.
The app, See Meds, is available at no cost on IOS and will hopefully be coming to Android shortly.
Since we recorded, I installed the app and tested it. From what I can see, it is almost entirely accessible for me as a blind user of an iPhone with VoiceOver.
Here’s where you can find the app and read more about it:
