Propeller is a digital health tool that helps people with asthma
or COPD manage their breathing. Propeller sensors connect to
patients’ existing inhalers and transmit data on medication use and
health patterns to the Propeller app on patients’ smartphones. This
is the latest update from Propeller aimed at making life better for
people with asthma or COPD, based on feedback from patients about
the day-to-day realities of their condition.
“We heard from our users that it’s easy to misplace an inhaler,
whether it’s in a purse, down the side of a chair or in a coat
pocket,” said Greg Tracy, chief technology officer of Propeller
Health. “This update to Find My Inhaler is intended to make it
quick and easy for users to find their inhaler with the same tool
they use to manage their condition every day.”
To ring their lost inhaler, Propeller users go to the Devices
tab of the Propeller app, locate the lost inhaler on their list of
medications, tap the “Find My Inhaler” button and tap “Ring
Sensor,” prompting the Propeller sensor on their inhaler to
ring.
The ring feature is an important update to Find My Inhaler,
which currently lets users view the last known location of their
sensored inhaler on a map within the Propeller app. Through the
Propeller app, users can also track their medication use, record
their symptoms and triggers, receive environmental forecasts that
may affect their asthma or COPD and download progress reports to
share with their provider.
The Propeller app will update to reflect the change
automatically for most users depending on their phone settings.
