I do not have Crohn's desease or Colitis, but I can understand why is it important to use this app. By using the In my Shoe App made me more awere of wearing of having the conditions that have the need of taking frequent medication and wearing a stoma bag. However, for people who require to use the App I can say that it is a very useful app as it can stop the condition worse. I quiete like the app as it can monitor the percentage s of your pain, mood and energy. The app is also very informative for people who has Crohns and Colitis.
