Cross H: a tool to help you to dialog about your health with a doctor through drawings of disease symptoms

This could be your story

Imagine you are in China, you are sick. For four days you have had hallucinations, a headache and nose bleeds. Do you feel the pain? You received the addresses of five doctors but none of them could speak English. They don’t understand you. You are lost…

The application

With Cross H (H stands for Health) you can have a discussion about your sickness with a physician even if you do not speak the same language. You can build up your story by choosing among 270 drawings of symptoms, situations and context. The physician, once he understands your problem, will be able to guide you through the next steps of your treatment. We hope you will recover faster thanks to a more accurate diagnosis!
We developed the application content together with associations (like the Red Cross) and professionals (like general practitioners and nurses) to make sure our tool covers most symptoms of standard sicknesses. We hope that you will never have to use the application, but if you travel to remote areas, it will be better to have Cross H on your device before being sick! Being precautionary is not painful.
We worked hard to make this app easy to navigate through and to ensure the 270 drawings are respectful of your culture.
Our main motivation is to reduce your stress level, so we are providing you with this valuable tool to use when you are in trouble and need to discuss with someone else.
We also believe everyone has the right to remain anonymous. We will not collect your personal information.

Protect your beloved

You care a lot about your partner, your kids, family and friends, you will find the application very useful especially if they travel… Make them aware about Cross H. They will be grateful to you.


You know Murphy’s law? If you think you won’t need Cross H, you probably will. Download the application before it is too late.
