"FDA cleared"? We checked.

Every health app in this directory was looked up in the official FDA register and in the EU EUDAMED database. You see what holds, what doesn't, and which tools are worth recommending to patients and clients.

    How we verify

    Certification claims on websites and app stores are often vague or out of date. Every entry goes through the same four checks.

    1. Collect the claimWhat the company says: FDA clearance, CE marking or a German DiGA listing.
    2. Check the registersWe search the FDA 510(k), De Novo and PMA databases and the EU EUDAMED database for the product and its legal manufacturer.
    3. Record the evidencePro members get the FDA reference numbers, dates and a direct link to each FDA record, the EU class with notified body and MDR certificate, plus a note when a listing was wrong or incomplete.
    4. Re-check monthlyNew clearances move up. Claims we cannot confirm move to the watchlist.
    FDA verifiedFound in the FDA register under this product or its manufacturer.
    CE IIaFound in EUDAMED as a medical device of class IIa, IIb or III, which requires a notified body. The CE verified section lists these tools when they have no FDA clearance.
    CE I · self-declaredCE class I: the manufacturer certifies itself, without a notified body. Tools with only this CE class and no FDA clearance have their own tab, CE class I.
    EU DiGAListed in the official German DiGA directory (BfArM) and reimbursed by German statutory health insurance. "Provisional" means listed for a trial period while evidence is collected.
    WatchlistClaimed to be certified, but not found in the FDA register or in EUDAMED. Not a judgement on quality.

    Who is behind this

    Prof. Koen Kas

    Certified Health Apps is curated by Prof. Koen Kas, healthcare futurist, author and keynote speaker. He holds the NN Chair of Lifestyle Medicine and Longevity at Ghent University and is CEO of HealthSkouts.

    Koen has tracked digital health tools that make it through regulators since 2017, when he started the certified app list at HealthSkouts. He has given more than 400 keynotes on the future of healthcare and wrote the books Epic and Your Guide to Delight.

    Why this directory exists: patients, clinicians and coaches keep asking which apps they can trust. Marketing pages rarely answer that. The official registers do, so every entry here is checked against them, with the reference number to prove it.
