Overview
LivingWith is an app that attempts to offer support for cancer patients and loved ones. While one of the primary objectives of its design it to help organize information, dates, and experiences, some believe the app fails at being user-friendly. Undiscoverable sharing features and frequent crashes have been reported.
Feed and Share
The app’s main feed provides available updates and sets the stage for positivity through daily motivational messages. The app allows users to send invites to friends and family. Users can also enter their zip code and request assistance with tasks such as rides to doctor appointments.
