Inspiration
The inspiration for viatza came from the way people in my home country (Moldova) use to keep their medical records in a little paper booklet. Everything, symptoms, doctor visits, blood type, test results, was there, and you carry it with you. I wanted to reimagine that same simplicity for today: a digital version that still belongs entirely to the patient, not the hospital or a third party.
What it does
viatza helps people take control of their health by keeping all medical records in one place. Users can log symptoms, track appointments, attach test results or notes, and manage personal health data like blood type, allergies, and more. Everything is simple, private, and always accessible.
How we built it
I built viatza with SwiftUI for iOS 18 and above. Data is stored locally on the device, and the app is designed around modular, testable features.
Challenges we ran into
- Adoption the app to iOS 26.
- Balancing hackathon speed with creating something genuinely useful.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
- Delivering a working health tracker with clean architecture in a short time (2 months)
- Creating a privacy-first approach where users fully own their data.
- Designing an app that feels approachable and familiar like Health app, inspired by the paper “health booklets” many of us grew up with.
What we learned
- The importance of clear, user-friendly design when dealing with sensitive health data.
- That simplicity — just having all records in one place — is the most powerful feature.
What's next for viatza
- Siri & Shortcuts — log symptoms completely hands-free
- Multiple profiles — manage health records for your kids or family members
- Widgets — glance at upcoming appointments or record symptoms in one tap
- Body measurements — track weight, height, and other key metrics
- Medicine tracking — stay on top of prescriptions and doses, and keep notes on what works (and what doesn’t)
- iCloud sync — keep your health records safe and available across devices
- Community roadmap — shape the app’s future with real user feedback
