The Spot a Stroke F.A.S.T. app
The American Stroke Association is proud to introduce the “Spot a Stroke F.A.S.T.” app, now available in English and Spanish for free download.
Stroke is a leading cause of disability and number four cause of death in the United States, behind diseases of the heart and cancer. Approximately 795,000 individuals will have a stroke each year; of these, 167,000 individuals will die and more will suffer a major disability.
F.A.S.T. is an easy way to remember the sudden signs of a stroke. When you can spot the signs, you'll know quickly that you need to call 9-1-1 for help. This is important because the sooner a stroke victim gets to the hospital, the sooner they'll get treatment. And that can make a remarkable difference in their recovery.

Not everyone knows the signs of a stroke but nearly everyone has a smartphone. An app is the easiest way to get critical information in a hurry. THAT'S the "point." You may know all the signs but one day you may have a stroke and no one around knows it-and you won't be able to tell them. Ironic if your last coherent thought before death, brain damage, or paralysis was how you wish someone had this app . . .

When my mother had a stroke, I could not remember what to look for. I noticed that one side of her face looked a little droopy, but if I had had this app, it would have been more apparent. Luckily, I got her to the hospital, but I really wasn't sure at the time.

What is the point of this app again besides making me spend 8.5mb to download it? I can see it now. "Hey Grandma, You're having a stroke. Hold on while I read the information contained in this app."
