Mobile Device and iOSǂ Software Compatibility

Our neuromodulation patients use a proprietary Appleǂ iOSǂ mobile software application known as the NeuroSphere™ Patient Controller App used on Appleǂ iPhonesǂ and  Appleǂ iPodsǂ to control prescribed programs on their implanted neurostimulation device. Abbott has tested mobile devices and operating systems for compatibility with the patient controller app. Supported devices by application and recommended iOSǂ version are listed in the table below.

All neuromodulation patients should review this compatibility guide from Abbott prior to installing the NeuroSphere™ Patient Controller App on a new supported device or prior to installing a new iOSǂ version on a supported device.
