There is no doubt that COVID-19 has brought numerous changes in everyone’s lives and triggered the digital world in multiple ways. The pandemic has pushed many business owners of different industries to go online for better sales.

Healthcare is one of the fastest-growing industries, and it gained immense popularity during the pandemic and will continue to do the same. Even a study has showcased that COVID-19 has led to a 25% increase in health app downloads.

That said, the medical app market is growing and allowing both patients and hospitals to leverage its features. Therefore, your healthcare app must include unique features that can help it to stand out in the market and grab your intended audience’s attention.

In this blog, we have listed the top healthcare app features. But, before moving further, let’s get acquainted with the types of healthcare applications in the market.

Types of Trending Healthcare Applications

Medicine Delivery App

As the term refers, you can now get your medicine at your doorstep without visiting the pharmacy by downloading a medicine delivery app (like Epocrates or Doximity).

Wearable Apps

Don’t forget about the most feasible app type- wearable apps that measure your body temperature, blood pressure, breathing rate, blood oxygen, and more. 7-minute workout, AppleWatch, Fitbit are different kinds of wearable application types.

Telemedicine App

It is time to say bye to the physical interaction between doctors and patients, especially during COVID-19, as telenursing applications have come into the picture. Download Plushcare and consult an online doctor regarding any health concerns.

Health and Fitness App

A big thanks to the application development market for letting everyone maintain a healthy lifestyle. Several health and fitness apps (like Sworkit or C25K) track your daily activities, what you eat in a day, or your sleeping schedule.

Wellness App

Your mental health also matters, and a wellness app is your ultimate solution. It specifies daily goals and tracks your daily progress. For instance, you can install an app called- ‘CALM’ that offers meditation products with good meditation instructions and sleep stories.

Clinical and Diagnostic Assistant

These kinds of applications are used by doctors that let them gather complete information related to their patients integrated with an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) and Electronic Health Record (EHR), making it easier for them to evaluate all the data for better decision-making.

Remote Monitoring

The remote monitoring app is the most used app during the pandemic that greatly monitors the patient’s health and shares the data with the doctor in case of any instruction, recommendation, or assessment.

Top 7 Features for an Effective Healthcare Mobile App Development

Easy Onboarding

The first impression is the last! Thus, you need to ensure that as soon as users land up in your application, they can easily register to the app using personal information (like name, DOB, phone number).

In short, the registration should be a smooth method without any unnecessary interruptions. After registering to the account, make sure that users are able to log in to the app using the details they have entered while registering.

Healthcare Provider Business Profile

The second next essential healthcare app feature that you must add is the doctor profile section. It lets patients review the doctor’s specialization, experience, consultation fees, and more.

In other words, the doctor’s profile in the app will help the patients to make the right decision by picking the appropriate doctor for any treatment or medicine prescription. Moreover, patients can find the right doctor near them based on their profile.

Appointment Scheduling

One of the crucial features you should not avoid while building a healthcare app is appointment scheduling. This feature reduces the patient’s waiting time and improves the user experience.

Moreover, it benefits the service providers (or staff) by saving time and organizing their busy schedules.

Integration with Wearable Devices

You can integrate a wearable device through your app for more application downloads. This feature in healthcare apps is a must-have as it measures the body temperature, blood pressure, physical movement, breathing rate, steps count, and more.

Wearable devices like Fitbit or AppleWatch monitor the patient’s condition, health report analysis, and more. Moreover, it specifies the treatment efficiency based on the actual physiological feedback.

Reminders and Notifications

The most fitting healthcare app feature is notifying (or reminding) the users about their upcoming appointment or prescribed medicine reminders that keep the patients in the loop throughout their treatment.

Fundamentally, reminders in healthcare applications inform the patients in case of any appointment rescheduling, need other assistance, or a follow-up.

Content Library

Another significant feature that you can add to your healthcare application- is the content library. There can be different types of content that you can use in your healthcare app to keep the users engaged and updated.

Podcasts, workout videos, exercise images, live sessions with certified trainers, and more are some of its key types. Moreover, you can post shout-outs or motivational content to spread positivity, and most importantly, publish informative content to keep the users in a loop.

Online Pharmacy

Now, you don’t have to step outside your home to get medications because now you can order the prescribed medicine online from your smartphone. Hence, here comes the last feature that you must add to your healthcare application that will definitely lure multiple users.
Online pharmacy is an excellent feature as it also gives access to people living in remote areas. Moreover, it is convenient as people get medicines delivered to their doorstep.

Final Thoughts

Overall, the bottom line of this blog is that easy login, appointment booking, symptom checker, doctor profile, and others are imperative features that are a must in healthcare app development.

If you want multiple downloads for your healthcare application, you must add relevant features (like the above-mentioned) to add value for users. Also, you can make a thriving place for your application on the Play Store or App Store by developing your app from a reputable healthcare app development company.

In a nutshell, every healthcare app feature is beneficial, but which one grabbed your attention the most and why?
