1.4.1Medical and health claims

What this guideline means

Apps offering diagnoses, treatment recommendations, or drug dosage calculations must be backed by a legitimate medical organization or clearly state they're for informational purposes only, not medical advice.

Why apps actually get flagged

Common in wellness/symptom-checker apps that present AI-generated health suggestions without the required disclaimers or credentialing.

A real example

"Your app provides drug dosage calculations or medical advice without appropriate credentials or disclaimers, per guideline 1.4.1."
