Growth Journey is a smart child growth tracking app for children aged 2 years and older. The app uses your phone’s camera to help you track your child’s growth regularly. It’s simple, click a picture of your child standing next to an adult.
The app automatically measures your child’s height and records it in the growth book with a visual record of all the measurements.
The growth chart gives you a visual representation of your child’s growth over time and indicates a child’s average height for their age group.
If there are any deviations in your child’s growth, the app helps connect you to growth specialists to seek professional guidance.
