Cove Health

Cove Health

A private, on-device companion for general health questions, medication look-ups, and a journal you can bring to your next clinic visit.

Features

  • Ask general health questions in your own words

    Speak or type a question about a condition, a term you saw on a lab result, or a general wellness topic. Cove answers with general information you can take to your clinician — never as a diagnosis.

  • Look up a medication you don't recognize

    Photograph the label of a pill bottle or blister pack. Cove identifies what's printed and surfaces general usage notes — not a prescription, not a substitute for the pharmacist's leaflet.

  • Personal health journal

    Log symptoms, dates, dosages, and questions for your next appointment. Everything stays in your phone's local storage — no cloud sync, no shared profile.

  • Stays on your phone

    Voice questions, photos, and journal entries are processed on your phone. Cove has no server you could be hacked through and no profile a data broker could buy.

How people use it

  1. Prepping for a clinic visit

    Two weeks of intermittent symptoms, three medications, four questions you keep forgetting. Cove helps you organize the timeline so you walk in with a clear handoff for the doctor — not a Google rabbit hole.

  2. Decoding a medication you found in a drawer

    An old blister pack from a relative, a bottle in a different language. Cove reads what's printed and gives general information so you know whether to bring it to a pharmacist — not whether to take it.

  3. Tracking symptoms over time

    Log each headache, each missed dose, each food trigger. The pattern that emerges over a month is what your clinician actually needs — Cove keeps it private until you choose to share.

Who is this for

  • Patients prepping for a clinic visit who want their symptoms, questions, and timeline organized.
  • People who want general information about a medication or condition before talking to a clinician.
  • Privacy-minded users who would rather their health questions never sit in a cloud account.

When not to reach for it

  • Medical emergencies — call your local emergency services or go to an emergency room.
  • Diagnosis, treatment decisions, or prescriptions — see a licensed clinician.
  • Mental health crises — contact a local crisis hotline or emergency services.

Frequently asked questions

Does Cove Health diagnose me?

No. Cove cannot and does not diagnose any condition. It returns general information — the same kind you might find in a public health pamphlet — and helps you keep your own notes. Any decision about your care belongs with a licensed clinician.

When should I not use Cove?

Stop using Cove and seek immediate help if you have an emergency: chest pain, severe bleeding, sudden weakness, suicidal thoughts, or any symptom you would call an ambulance for. For mental health crises, contact a local crisis hotline. Cove is not designed to handle emergencies.

Where do my health entries live?

On your phone, in app-private storage. There is no Cove account, no cloud sync, and no server-side log. Uninstalling the app deletes everything — including the AI's chat history about your questions.

Which languages does it understand?

Cove Health speaks the same languages as Cove Travel — English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, Portuguese, and more. Medical vocabulary is broad in major languages and thinner in less-resourced ones; check Cove's output against a clinician who speaks your language.
