ASMA Micro:bit watch and App

The Project

Developing the accompanying App, named ASMA app will support the watch we created to monitor Asthma symptoms. The application serves as a practical tool, featuring a calender to help users keep track of doctor appointments. Mini-games will be added for younger learners to create awareness around asthma. The primary aim is to simplify life for individuals managing their asthma symptoms, appointments and medication.

Next time, we would...

Yes, my partner and I would've put more work into the device and app. The App was challenging for us to make tangible.
