Facts
Stroke is the second leading cause of death of people over 60 and the fifth leading cause of death in people aged 15 - 59.In adults, stroke is one of the leading cause of long-term disability irrespective of sex, ethnicity or location.

Endorsement:
“The great advantage of the Stroke Riskometer is that it allows a person to calculate their risk of stroke within the next 5-10 years. Armed with this information, an individual can take action, with the help of their doctor, to reduce their risk of having a stroke or a heart attack. Stroke is much easier to prevent than treat. As one of my patients stated, the best stroke is the stroke you never had!” Prof. Stephen Davis, President, World Stroke Organization.

Does not go past the age step in setup...does not work

I wasn't able to set my age in the first screen, so just hit continue. It did go through all the rest of the questions, but any time I scrolled the number selection the whole app scrolled up my screen and nearly off the top. So the result is wrong because I could only enter age 20. The last screen with the meter on will not scroll up far enough and the reset button is not visible. It's also a very big download for the app. Maybe they could leave out all the pages of text and just link to their site. At the moment, a big fail! Using a Motorola Defy with 2.2.2
