About
MedScan makes it easy for you to figure out what your medication is for.
1) Scans your medication's label
2) Lookup its purpose
3) Read it out to you in your choice language for you (e.g. English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Punjabi, Korean, German, Arabic, Japanese, etc.)
All of this is achieved using the camera. It is designed to be very simple to use and senior-friendly.
Note: It can scan medication labels with a well-known drug name or a Drug Identification Number (an 8-digit number issued by Health Canada)
