A journaling mobile app that transforms the treatment journey for medical cannabis patients

Tetragram was founded on the belief that patients should be able to easily record and track their experiences with cannabis products, empowering them with the knowledge needed to find what works best for them.

Turning their vision and research into a revolutionary digital tool, Tetragram collaborated with Mindbuzz to develop and launch its first journaling mobile application.

The Opportunity

According to a recent survey, 84.9% of medical residents and fellows reported receiving no education regarding the medicinal use of cannabis. Oftentimes, this means patients have to manage their own treatment plans and rely on frustrating trial-by-error processes.

Digital journaling offers a simple and effective way for patients to take control of their medical cannabis experiences while building a trusted resource for others in the community.

Patient-Centric Approach

The Tetragram and Mindbuzz teams worked closely to ensure that the mobile app was designed and developed entirely around patients and their needs. App users can track information that is important to them by entering symptoms, details associated with components they are taking, and how the product made them feel. Over time, the app helps patients identify what provides the most relief for their symptoms.

App Development

React Native uses a single codebase that provides similar functionality in both iOS and Android. Without having to develop and maintain separate platforms, we were able to work more efficiently and reduce time to market.

Once the application was ready for initial release, we successfully guided Tetragram through the app store submission process.

We worked alongside their team to streamline and enhance the app by implementing the following:

  • Sign In with Apple & Google Sign In – quick, secure ways for patients to start using the app
  • Data caching – improves load times by displaying data immediately while the app obtains and updates new data
  • Modal library integration – allows app users to easily dismiss modals
  • UI support for modern devices – ensures app content fills the entire screen across multiple devices
  • Strain and dispensary search – returns better search results due to codebase and search engine adjustments
  • Photo uploads – enables app users to promptly add photos using their camera or photo library

Virtual Launch

To increase awareness of the Tetragram app, Mindbuzz’s marketing team organized and hosted a webinar titled Take Control of your Medical Cannabis Journey with Journaling in coordination with Tetragram and other leaders of the movement, including Dr. Janice Knox, Dustin McDonald, and Connor Sheffield.

Over 130 people registered for the event to hear from our panelists and see the mobile app in action. Following the presentation, attendees participated in fruitful discussions about treatments and provided positive, constructive feedback regarding the app.
