Here’s an American one used in the UK. That had a data breach exposing sensitive images. I won’t ever trust consumer computers for sensitive medical stuff.

I’m not saying health care companies are competent. I am saying at least they have legal obligations to try to keep your information secure. Google has no such obligation.

Besides, there is less likely of a chance that a medical app targeted toward virtual care for babies would be flagging parents for sending pictures of their children to a doctor.
