Best Virtual Physiotherapist
There is a chat feature that gets a human response to your questions, not AI, so it’s considered and tailored to your need. I did not go for premium as in the UK the NHS provides weekly home visits by a physiotherapist. Combined these have helped me reach very good results early in my recovery.
The measure feature for flexion and extension is great so you know where you are in these and not guessing. It would be nice if these measures could be stored on device to show the progress.
Overall the app holds me accountable and focused to do the necessary exercise for my recovery. I work well with structured plans which this gives me. Excellent app. I will be using it again for my other knee next year!

Thank you very much for the detailed and thoughtful review! I very much appreciate it. First let me solve one of your issues which is accessing the stored knee flexion and extension measurements that you have taken with the Curovate app. From the home screen, on the lower right hand corner select "Profile" and then select "Achievements." On this page you will see graphs of all of your knee flexion and extension measurements as well as a graph for your daily, weekly and monthly adherence. Adherence is how consistent you have been with the daily video-guided exercises given to you as a percentage from 0-100%. If you are unable to locate the measurements feel free to send me a message in the chat where a human will respond to you. It's great that you have found the app useful to keep you accountable after your knee replacement. Also you are absolutely correct about the stages of exercises, all of which are 7 days long, building on previous stages such that the exercises get progressively harder but still manageable from one stage to the next. All the best for your current knee replacement recovery and I hope Curovate is also able to help you with your future knee replacement as well. As always reach out to me via the in-app chat if you have any questions or concerns as you continue your home physiotherapy.

Critical in my recovery
Response from developer
Thank you very much for the review. I’m glad that you have found the knee range of motion measurement in the app useful and motivating for your recovery. I absolutely agree this is a critical measurement that people should be able to take at home any time they need to and not wait for in-person appointments. One of the rehabilitation protocols we plan to add to the app is MPFL in the future. I will keep you informed and let you know when we add MPFL recovery to or app.
