## Description

**Steady Hands** is a private hand stability and tremor measurement app designed to help users monitor resting, postural, and kinetic tremors. Guided drawing assessments and smartphone sensor tests generate objective insights, while a 1–10 hand stability score helps track changes over time.

The app includes tremor pattern recognition, progress monitoring, and shareable reports for healthcare discussions. It may support people managing Essential Tremor, Parkinson’s disease, or general hand tremors, as well as caregivers, athletes, surgeons, and others focused on hand stability. Steady Hands is a wellness and monitoring tool, not a standalone diagnostic or emergency medical device; consult a healthcare professional for medical evaluation.
