What do you think of this? Sounds cool but not highly accurate. If I have an ability to measure at home I would want to see what my daily decisions do to my lung function (ie. a choice to exercise or not, eat well or not, time of day, etc.) so +/- 5% margin of error is not okay with me but if it's free I'd download it. I will be interested to read how the next stage of their study goes.

That's really cool. I think that over time the technology is only going to get better and more accurate.

I knew when I heard Smule...spirometry can't be far behind...or testing breath for drinking, or mutations?
Spirometers need a doctor's prescription.
Will this be the first APP that needs a prescription?
WOW!

That's really cool! Any idea on when it will be available?
