Medical Wearable App Development
FREE CONSULTATION
Wearable technology is reshaping healthcare, from fitness tracking to clinical-grade diagnostics. At Dogtown Media, we develop custom applications for wearable medical devices that deliver actionable data, improve care coordination, and integrate seamlessly with provider systems and patient lifestyles.
Full-Spectrum Development for Leading Wearables
We specialize in wearable app development for devices such as Apple Watch, Fitbit, Whoop, Garmin, Android Wear, Oura, smart textiles, and FDA-cleared tools like the Omron HeartGuide. From wristbands to smart rings and IoT-connected diagnostic devices, we tailor functionality to each form factor’s capabilities—whether screen-based, sensor-only, or haptic-driven.
Whether it’s passive health monitoring, real-time alerts, or FDA-regulated medical apps, our team builds for scale, accuracy, and compliance.
We build for both continuous patient monitoring and episodic care, enabling providers to collect and analyze data from outside traditional clinical environments. For devices with limited UI or storage, we optimize processing and transmission logic to ensure minimal latency and maximum uptime, even in resource-constrained environments.
Security, Compliance, and FDA-Ready Architecture
Every wearable solution we develop is engineered to meet stringent regulatory requirements, including:
- HIPAA compliance for all data at rest and in transit
- FDA guidance for mobile medical applications and Software as a Medical Device (SaMD)
- 510(k) submission support, including documentation and development planning
- Secure authentication, consent workflows, and user permission protocols
Whether the wearable app is intended for remote patient monitoring, diagnostic support, or direct therapeutic intervention, we build systems that meet the expectations of healthcare providers, regulators, and end users.
Clinical Utility Meets Consumer Usability
Dogtown Media develops wearable health apps with dual value: empowering patients to understand their wellness and enabling providers to act on data trends in real time.
Our experience includes:
- Sleep and respiratory tracking for patients with chronic conditions
- Passive biometric monitoring for cardiology, oncology, and neurology applications
- Electrotherapy and pain management tools with Bluetooth connectivity
- Smart wearables that support rehab and post-stroke physical therapy
- Fitness and activity tracking tailored to treatment plans or population studies
Data captured from wearable sensors can be funneled into HIPAA-compliant cloud systems for analysis, provider review, or integration into EHR workflows. We support device pairing, encrypted data transmission, and logic-based alerts that flag abnormalities for timely intervention.
Optimized for the Platform. Designed for Real-World Use.
Unlike traditional mobile apps, wearable software requires thoughtful design around physical constraints: smaller screens, limited input options, low-power processors, and varying connectivity conditions. We account for each platform’s native limitations—whether it’s managing haptics on Apple Watch or sensor polling on a Bluetooth-enabled ECG patch.
Cross-platform challenges like firmware integration, BLE pairing, or medical-grade data syncing are part of our day-to-day development process. We build for both consumer-facing and clinical-grade applications, delivering scalable mobile health tools that bridge the gap between patient autonomy and provider oversight.
Dogtown Media combines deep healthcare domain knowledge with cutting-edge mobile engineering. Whether you’re launching an RPM-enabled device, integrating a wearable into your care model, or bringing a novel sensor to market, we’re your full-cycle partner—from prototype through post-launch.
