I built a free app to help track Hep B meds and labs — looking for a few people to test it and tell me what's wrong with it

Hi everyone,

I'll be honest and say this is my own app, so this is a bit of a self-plug — but it's completely free and I'm genuinely here for feedback, not sales.

A bit of background: keeping track of daily antivirals and making sense of lab results over time was always messier than it should be for me. specially to control empty-stomach time. So I built [LVRHealth], an iPhone app to keep it all in one place.

It help:

Remind you to take your medication and log doses, with an adherence history

Store your lab reports — you can snap a photo of a results page and it pulls the values out for you, then charts them over time so you can actually see the trend

Track appointments and generate a simple summary you can show/send to your doctor

Fasting reminders for tests that need it

• Works in 6 languages (including Chinese — I know Hep B affects a lot of us in Asian communities)

On privacy, since this is health data: your info stays on your device — there's no account to create, and you can lock the app behind a passcode/Face ID. (Please double-check this line matches your actual data handling before posting.)

To be clear about what it's not: it doesn't give medical advice or treatment recommendations — it's just a tool to organize your own info and take it to your actual doctor.

It's on TestFlight (iPhone/iPad only for now, sorry Android folks) and free to test:

What I'd really love hear from you:

• Does anything feel confusing or missing?

• Does the lab-photo extraction get your numbers right?

• What would actually make this useful in your day-to-day?

that's exactly what I need at this stage.

Thank you 🙏

When did you know you got hepB

The first time for me was when I started high school and got my blood test results. At that moment, it felt like my whole world had turned grey.

It’s been 20 years now. I'm doing pretty well overall—just taking my daily medication and waiting for medical advancements to eventually clear cccDNA.

What about you ?
