Idea
 To use the MedWand hardware, you’ll need a compatible tablet or smartphone running our VirtualCare Application. Provided below are recommended devices to help guide your selection. Whenever possible, we highly recommend purchasing devices that offer LTS (Long Term Support), such as the Galaxy Tab Active5 Pro, which we consider to be the gold standard for our device. If you’re planning on using a device not listed here, we recommend purchasing a single device first and testing the performance. Keep in mind that cheaper devices may not perform as well as a premium device, especially when it comes to stethoscope sound quality.
