Healthcare professionals can now send messages to patients via the calendar or the message history! Sending a message from an appointment from the calendar saves our users time, as the the patient details are pre-filled from the appointment. Visiba Care has also become better for smaller screens to accommodate a larger hardware variety. In addition, your patients will now be able to show you their conditions from the rear camera better, as the rear camera view becomes larger on their screens. We top that with some important bug fixes and we hope that you enjoy the new Visiba Care!
