MyPermobil: Enhancing Independence for Power Wheelchair Users
MyPermobil is a free iPhone application developed by Permobil Inc. that aims to enhance the independence of power wheelchair users. With real-time connectivity in mind, this app provides continuous updates on individual battery range estimates, distance, and seating behavior.
By communicating directly with the power wheelchair, MyPermobil offers up-to-date information on remaining travel distance, alerting users when it's time to charge or replace batteries. This is made possible through Permobil's exclusive advanced calculation method, ensuring users can confidently go further in their power wheelchairs.
One standout feature of MyPermobil is its integrated map, which assists users on their power wheelchair journeys. Whether you need directions or want to explore new areas, this app has you covered. Additionally, the seat activity tracking feature remembers seating behavior, making it easier to communicate with healthcare providers.
It's important to note that MyPermobil requires additional hardware on the power wheelchair. All Permobil models (M3 Corpus, M5 Corpus, F3 Corpus, F5 Corpus, and F5 Corpus VS) in the USA, Canada, and Australia after December 2017 come equipped with this hardware, ensuring compatibility with the app.
Download MyPermobil today and experience the benefits of real-time information, increased independence, and improved communication with healthcare providers for power wheelchair users.
