## What is AretaCare?

Healthcare rarely affects one person alone. Whether it's your own care or that of a parent, partner, child, friend, or pet, important information ends up scattered across texts, emails, portals, calls, and documents.

AretaCare gives everyone one shared place to stay organized, informed, and prepared.

Create a care session, invite trusted family members or caregivers, and work together through stressful moments. Exchange messages, store documents, record conversations, prepare questions, and maintain a clearer picture of the care situation over time.

HOW ARETACARE HELPS
- Stay coordinated: Share a care session with up to 9 people so everyone can see the same information, contribute updates, and stay connected.
- Stay organized: Bring together messages, documents, audio recordings, follow-ups, and reminders in one place.
- Stay prepared: Capture concerns, organize questions, and walk into care team conversations with a clearer understanding of what needs to be discussed.
- Stay focused: Spend less time sorting through information and more time engaging with the care team. AI helps summarize, organize, and explain along the way.

FREE TOOLS, NO ACCOUNT REQUIRED
- Jargon Translator: Ask about confusing medical language and get plain-language explanations with citations from Mayo Clinic, MedlinePlus, Cleveland Clinic, and CDC.
- Conversation Coach: Preparing for an appointment? Get help turning your concerns into clear questions for your care team.

### 5/5 — Great App for Keeping Family in the Loop

*2026-06-06*

AretaCare has been a really helpful app for managing healthcare communication with family and friends. Instead of juggling texts, calls, and emails, I can share updates in one place and keep everyone informed.

The app is easy to use, well organized, and takes a lot of the stress out of coordinating care. It’s been a great utility for keeping people connected and informed without creating more work during an already stressful time. Highly recommend. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

### 5/5 — Terrific

*2026-05-22*

This is such an important tool. Ultimately everyone should be using this, but especially as we age and begin to have more and more encounters with doctors. It’s also very important that older loved ones use this or allow their caretaker/children to help collaborate with them.

### 5/5 — Built from real experience

*2026-04-23*

I created AretaCare while helping care for my mom, so this is very personal for me. Yesterday at the hospital, I was using it to keep track of updates, notes, and questions, and a few doctors and nurses asked what app I was using. After I showed them, they asked me to text it to them so they could use it with their own families. That meant a lot. AretaCare has genuinely helped my family stay organized, communicate more clearly, and feel more prepared during a very stressful time.

### 5/5 — My husband finally tells me what the doctor said

*2026-04-21*

I love my husband. I do. But asking him how an appointment went used to be like interviewing a hostile witness. "It was fine." "She said some stuff." "I don't remember." Meanwhile his family was texting me for updates and I had nothing useful to pass along.
AretaCare has genuinely fixed this. He can load in records and notes from a visit, keep a running list of questions he wants to ask (and actually remember to ask them, because they're all in one place), and then generate a clean summary to send out to family. No more me playing switchboard between him and all the relatives asking the same questions.
What I like most is that it doesn't require him to suddenly become a great communicator. The app does the structuring for him — he captures what happened, and out comes something shareable. His family finally feels looped in now. 
Highly recommend for anyone married to someone who thinks 'it was fine' is a complete medical update.

### 5/5 — Turns Confusing Health Info Into Clear Insights

*2026-04-19*

Areta Care has brought real clarity to what is often a complicated and stressful experience. I now have one place to store all my health data and reports from doctor visits. It breaks down complex information into something easy to understand, which gives me more confidence going into appointments and taking action on my health. If you’ve ever wondered what to ask your doctor or who to follow up with, Areta Care is a great tool to have.

### 5/5 — Great App

*2026-04-04*

I downloaded this to help with managing my Mom’s care. she had surgery last year and had several complications. This led to multiple doctors, a list of medications, various diagnoses and a complicated set of instructions to keep track of. This app was a game changer. It allowed me to upload documents, record conversations, summarize information and ask questions to the A.I. assistant. Managing my Mom’s care using AretaCare became so much easier. Anyone who’s looking for help managing a difficult medical situation and navigating a complex healthcare system should try this app. Highly recommend!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-04-01*

This app was very useful for me in organizing information related to my son’s recent hospitalization.

### 5/5 — Amazing app!

*2026-03-30*

Wonderful tool to help you organize and understand your health care situation. Great for families and elder care!

### 5/5 — Makes Things Easy

*2026-03-30*

Incredibly efficient way to keep family in the loop with loved one’s medical care.  Highly recommend.

### What devices does AretaCare support?

### How often is AretaCare updated?

The latest version of AretaCare is 1.0.1, which was last updated on March 31, 2026. Updates are released to improve features and ensure reliability.

## Version history (last 5 releases)

### 1.0.8 — 2026-08-15

Sensitive account changes now confirm it's really you. Updating your email or password, or deleting your account, asks for a quick check with your passkey, authenticator app, or a backup code if you have MFA enabled. Changing your password also signs out your other devices.

Shared care sessions are clearer about who can do what. If someone shared a care session with you, you'll see "Leave Care Session," which removes your access and names the owner, rather than options that were only ever the owner's to use. Renaming and deleting stay with the owner, and both now show progress while they finish instead of appearing to freeze.

Your information stays private when you switch away. AretaCare hides its contents in the app switcher for everyone, not just people using Face ID lock.

Recording audio gives you better feedback. The recorder now stays open and tells you it's uploading and transcribing, so a long recording no longer looks like it failed. A dropped connection won't sign you out either. If you use more than one account, you can now get back to the sign-in screen from the subscription screen.

Plus the usual round of small fixes and polish.

### 1.0.7 — 2026-07-27

Face ID lock is now more dependable. If you've turned it on, AretaCare asks you to unlock whenever you come back after being away, even when iOS has quietly closed the app in the background.

Photo uploads are smoother, too. Pictures from your library now work in any format (HEIC, TIFF, and more are converted automatically), and if a file in a batch can't be uploaded, we tell you which one and why instead of leaving you guessing.

Long audio recordings are safer. Recordings up to four hours are supported, and if transcription is ever interrupted, your recording is saved and playable rather than lost. Plus the usual round of small fixes and polish.

### 1.0.6 — 2026-05-18

AretaCare now runs on OpenAI's latest model and is more aware of your Health Profile, prompting you to refresh it when something worth adding comes up in conversation.

Privacy is tighter, too: copied health information clears from your clipboard after a minute and stays on your device.

We also fixed a few small bugs you may not have noticed.

### 1.0.5 — 2026-05-04

This update makes AretaCare easier and more accessible for everyone. The app now supports VoiceOver, Voice Control, and Switch Control, respects Reduce Motion, and handles larger text more cleanly throughout the experience.

Collaboration is easier, too. The collaborator shortcut is now at the top of the chat view, making it simpler to manage care together.

We also fixed a few small bugs you may not have noticed.

This update makes AretaCare easier and more accessible for everyone. The app now supports VoiceOver, Voice Control, and Switch Control, respects Reduce Motion, and handles larger text more cleanly throughout the experience.
