Technical description

Healico is a health software composed of two interfaces: an Android and iOS mobile application, each developed using Android and iOS native framework.

Although Healico can temporarily store data locally in a database in the user’s phone, it is designed to communicate with a server-side application to store securely and process data. This application server is hosted by a certified health data hosting company.
