About Heart Care Companion

Heart Care Companion brings the everyday pieces of cardiac recovery into one place. It keeps your medication list and reminders in view so doses are not missed, walks you through a staged rehabilitation plan of walking, stretching and breathing exercises, and lets you log blood pressure and heart rate so you can see the trend across weeks rather than judging a single reading. A food diary gives plain-English feedback on meals, a short wellbeing check-in covers sleep, mood, stress and symptoms, and your emergency contacts stay one tap away.

The app is built for people recovering from a heart attack, bypass surgery or a stent procedure, for anyone living with heart failure, and for the family members and carers who help them day to day. It is designed to be readable and usable for older adults: large text, large touch targets, no clutter, and nothing that punishes you for missing a day.

Heart Care Companion is created and maintained by the Heart Care Companion team, an independent group of developers and people with first-hand experience of cardiac recovery. We build it around what patients and carers told us they actually needed to keep going, and we keep it deliberately small rather than adding features nobody asked for.

What we do not do matters just as much. Heart Care Companion does not diagnose, treat or advise, it is not a substitute for your cardiologist or rehabilitation team, and it will never tell you it is safe to change a medication or stop an exercise programme. Your health data belongs to you: it is not sold, not used for advertising, and you can ask for your account and records to be deleted at any time.
