A journal article published in the International Journal of Language and Communication Disorders in 2001 found that when people with Parkinson’s Disease used a swallow reminder their saliva management improved. (Drooling in Parkinsons’ disease: a novel speech and language therapy intervention. Int J Lang Commun Disord. 2001;36 Suppl:282-7. Marks L, Turner K, O'Sullivan J, Deighton B, Lees A).

Swallow Prompt can be used during normal device usage (excluding phone calls) and when your device is in standby mode (screen off) in order to preserve battery charge.

Longer vibrations

HalfwayCat on

Longer vibrations would be good in a noisy environment. Especially on iwatch

Disappointed

Bbettie53 on

I bought this app to trial on my Apple Watch before recommending it my father who has Parkinson’s Disease and struggles with drooling. Most disappointed, you are unable to modify settings from the app, have to go to the App Store. It is not discrete on the Apple Watch as you are unable to activate vibrate rather it makes a sound. Thankfully it only cost 89p!

Almost there

This would be perfect if it sent notifications to Apple Watch

Thank you
