About Getwellson
Getwellson is an iOS app designed for one purpose: helping parents track their child's health when it matters most. Whether it's a fever at 3 AM or a week-long illness, Getwellson keeps every detail organized so you can focus on your child.
Why I Built Getwellson
Two weeks ago, both our daughters got sick at the same time. My wife barely slept for days. At 3 AM she was fighting the Notes app on her phone, trying to answer questions no parent wants to be unsure about: When was the last dose? When is the next dose safe? What do we tell the doctor tomorrow?
She was exhausted, stressed, and the tools she had were not built for this moment. Scattered notes, half-remembered times, mental math about medication intervals. It felt wrong that something so important had to be so hard.
Watching that, I thought: there has to be a better way. Parents deserve a simple, calm tool that handles the details so they can focus on their child.
So I built a small iPhone app that does one thing well: a fast timeline for temperatures, medications, and symptoms, plus a clean report you can share with the doctor. No account required, no cloud sync, no complexity. Just open it and start logging.
I hope no parent ever needs it. But if you do, I want Getwellson to be the calmest thing on your phone at 3 AM.
