Software Qualification Note

Last updated: 12.06.2025

Subject: "Applidia" Application – Non-qualification as a Medical Device

Publisher: Applidia Sàrl

Headquarters: Lausanne, Switzerland

1. Context

The Applidia application is a mobile software developed to support individuals with diabetes in tracking their personal health data (e.g., blood glucose, injections, blood pressure, physical activity), for self-monitoring purposes, without automated analysis or diagnostic, predictive, or therapeutic decision-making functions.

This note aims to demonstrate that Applidia does not meet the definition of a medical device under Regulation (EU) 2017/745 (MDR) and the Swiss MedDO, and therefore does not fall within their scope.

2. Regulatory Definition of a Medical Device

According to Article 2 of the MDR (EU 2017/745): A medical device is any instrument, apparatus, software, implant, reagent, or other article intended by the manufacturer to be used for specific medical purposes, including:

  • Diagnosis, prevention, monitoring, prediction, prognosis, treatment, or alleviation of a disease.
  • Diagnosis, monitoring, treatment, alleviation of, or compensation for, an injury or disability.

Under Swiss legislation (MedDO RS 812.213): The definition is equivalent to that of the MDR, as Switzerland is aligned with the EU in the field of medical devices.

3. Applidia Application Features

The Applidia application allows the user to:

  • Manually record health data (blood glucose, injections, medications, etc.)
  • View trends as graphs or lists
  • Use data for personal purposes or to share with a healthcare professional

The application does not:

  • Offer any diagnosis or treatment
  • Use any clinical decision support algorithms
  • Substitute for medical advice in any way
  • Provide any automated medical recommendations

4. Regulatory Analysis

According to the European Commission guidelines (MEDDEV 2.1/6, MDCG 2019-11), software is not considered a medical device if:

  • Its sole purpose is general well-being or personal health monitoring
  • It does not alter medical management
  • It performs no therapeutic, diagnostic, or predictive function

Applidia is limited to personal, informational use, without a medical purpose.

5. Conclusion

The Applidia application, in its current state of functionality:

  • is not intended for a medical purpose within the meaning of the MDR or MedDO,
  • does not alter the medical management of patients,
  • is comparable to a personal well-being/health application, similar to a digital paper logbook.

Therefore, Applidia does not constitute a medical device and is not subject to the requirement for CE marking for medical devices or compliance with MDR/MedDO.
