I showed this app to my Rheumatologist and my Physical Therapist, at separate appointments, they were both blown away with the quality of the information and confirmed the exercise programs to indeed be A.S. specific and correct.

Pros and cons of iAnkylosingSpondylitis app for iPhone and iPad

iAnkylosingSpondylitis app good for

This app is great. I just was diagnosed with AS and this was a wealth of need-to-know information. Thanks to the team that put this together.
This app has a lot of great info, best of all being the exercise descriptions complete with animations. The app provides three different programs with a variety of exercises specific to A.S., information on diet, symptoms and a whole lot more. I showed this app to my Rheumatologist and my Physical Therapist, at separate appointments, they were both blown away with the quality of the information and confirmed the exercise programs to indeed be A.S. specific and correct. If you have A.S. or know someone who does, or even if not, download this app, it really is great.

Some bad moments

Wow, what an amazing app, very informative. I just got diagnosed with AS and found this app very helpful in understanding the disease and options available. Thank you!!!!
First, a huge thank you for producing this app. Im certain many will benefit from this. I hope work will continue, as there is of course room for improvements. Links to the best research clinics would be tops on my list. Next would be lists of specialty practitioners, such as ocular immunologists. Then since I am afflicted with chronic scleritis, I have to mention that much more needs to be given about different inflammatory conditions of the eye, their treatments, and prognoses. Thanks again, and please keep up the good works. B. Tichenor
