Poshan Growth Saathi for Android

Poshan Growth Saathi is an educational mobile application designed to assist health workers in tracking child growth and nutrition efficiently. The app allows users to input age, weight, and height to calculate WHO Z-scores, classifying children as Normal, Stunted, Wasted, or Underweight. It eliminates the need for manual chart lookups, providing a user-friendly interface that supports both metric and imperial units. The app is specifically optimized for low-end Android devices, making it suitable for field conditions, particularly for Anganwadi workers, ASHAs, and community volunteers in India.

In addition to its core functionality, Poshan Growth Saathi performs standard Z-score calculations for Weight-for-Age, Height-for-Age, and Weight-for-Height, facilitating immediate assessment and classification for follow-up actions. The application is designed for use in low-connectivity environments with offline data entry capabilities, though synchronization requires internet access. Its interface emphasizes visual cues and icons to aid in rapid data entry, although language support may vary, necessitating local adaptation for effective use.
