Wanda, a leading digital health platform dedicated to advancing the effectiveness and efficiency of chronic health condition management, today announced the launch of myWanda, the first and only mobile application specifically aimed at empowering women to improve the health of their hearts.

Wanda is expanding its analytics ecosystem with mobile applications to engage individuals earlier in their lives, onboarding them onto the Wanda platform. myWanda will also add considerably to the richness of Wanda's data and machine-learning engine, enabling the Company to advance upcoming product applications and features.

Available today in the iTunes App Store, myWanda delivers personalized support for developing heart healthy behaviors.

Although heart disease is the number one killer of women in America, approximately 80 percent of cases are preventable through education and lifestyle changes. This is where myWanda comes in -- leveraging data science, applied medical research, and proven engagement methodologies to deliver support through a compelling, visually-driven mobile interface.

"myWanda is driving a revolution in healthcare that re-positions the patient to the very center of the care process," said Dr. Suzanne Steinbaum, renowned cardiologist and Medical Director of Wanda. "I'm thrilled to align my passion for educating women about heart health with myWanda's intelligent, impactful solution. Our goal is to empower women with the tools and knowledge they need to take control of their own health."

As Wanda's Medical Director, Dr. Steinbaum oversees the clinical content, consumer engagement, and clinical integrity. Dr. Steinbaum is a Fellow of the American College of Cardiology, and is the National Spokesperson for the Go Red for Women campaign. Experience and expertise has given Dr. Steinbaum a close view of the critical role that technology plays in managing women's healthcare; and she has seen in myWanda an innovative technology solution that stands out among health apps and demonstrates the potential to improve health, quality care, and convenience for women.

Wanda has long been dedicated to simplifying and improving the lives of individuals with chronic health conditions, blending predictive analytics and behavioral science to enrich the remote health and patient management experience. Through its research, Wanda identified the importance of proactively addressing the unique needs of women who are at risk of heart disease today. myWanda is the company's first consumer app, featuring a leading-class personalized communication strategy that makes it easy for women to receive support, education, and guidance.
