Growth Journey is a free Android app by Dawn Health that helps parents track the growth of their children who are aged 2 years and older. The app uses the phone’s camera to measure the child’s height and record it in the growth book with a visual record of all the measurements. The growth chart gives a visual representation of the child’s growth over time and indicates the average height of children in their age group. If there are any deviations in the child’s growth, the app connects parents to growth specialists to seek professional guidance.

Parents face three key challenges when it comes to tracking their child’s growth: height is measured only during visits to the doctor, parents are unaware of the importance of tracking their child’s growth regularly, and parents lack the means to measure height accurately. Growth Journey offers parents a simple solution by enabling them to measure and track their child’s height at home on a continuous basis, detect deviations in growth earlier, and seek professional guidance if required. The app is a great way to improve adherence to treatment and detect possible health problems early.
