Questions
Frequently asked questions
Billing, privacy, the clinical tools, and what the app will and will not do.
Is Healthread free?
Yes. Threads, articles and your profile cost nothing. The clinical tools are premium, with a 7-day trial.
Is the symptom checker a diagnosis?
No, and neither is a skin analysis. Both are there to help you decide whether and when to see someone.
How do I cancel?
In your App Store or Google Play account, the same as any subscription. Canceling keeps your data.
Can I delete my account?
Yes, from Settings, along with an export of what you have logged.
iPhone and Android?
Yes. iPhone on the App Store and Android on Google Play. Each store shows whether Healthread is offered in your country.
Is it in Spanish?
The whole app is, and so is this site.
Can family see my medicines?
Only if you invite them to a care group, and only the doses you have taken.
Who reviews the health content?
Articles are medically reviewed before publishing, and clinical reference comes from UpToDate. Board-certified clinicians on the Medical Advisory Panel (gastroenterology, dermatology and internal medicine) review the clinical direction of the app.
