Medical learning on iPhone

Find the source.
Then understand it.

Symwise searches open medical references on your iPhone, then an AI turns the matching passages into plain language. When a local source is found, the answer is blue and cited. When none is found, it is yellow, and the reply says so.

The App Store link will go here after Symwise is released.

One question, three steps.

The question is first turned into a search. The library stays on the phone. The reply uses the matching passages, and the text just before and after them when that helps.

1

Say what you want to understand

If the topic is too broad, you get a few directions to choose, instead of a finished conclusion.

2

Search the library on the device

The closest passages from open English medical texts are selected, then written up.

3

Read it in plain language

The reply is colored by whether a source was found. For any medical decision, talk with a licensed professional.

Blue means a source. Yellow means none.

The color shows what the reply is based on.

Blue

Related passages were found in the on-device index. The reply is written from those excerpts, and you can open the source.

Yellow

No local reference matched. The text is generated, and it says so at the start. It is for learning, not a checked reference.

The library is public medical text.

The index ships with the app and covers these open sources. They are learning material, not a diagnosis for you.
