Managing my COPD
We’ll send you daily in app reminders to tell us about your symptoms. Use the app to answer questions on how you’re feeling each day. You can use this to keep track of your COPD symptoms. Our respiratory clinical team can see your answers at appointments and when you contact them. They’ll use this information to understand your needs.
