Shutterstock/fizkes With the delta variant creating a surge in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, COVID Tech Connect’s latest offering is a timely one. The startup, which launched as a nonprofit last spring, is now offering an app that lets patients video chat with anyone on any device.
The app, called TeleHome, saw a soft launch in May and is now being rolled out more widely. Hospitals request one-time logins to install and log into the app on a device. From there, a patient can use the device to text a link to anyone. When opened, that link will launch a video chat in an Internet browser, no device compatibility needed.
As the Delta variant surges, a non-profit app lets hospital patients call home for free on any device – TechCrunch techcrunch.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from techcrunch.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
