Introducing Glow: Now With Walgreens Rx Refill!
We are just beaming to announce the fact that one of our newest Prescription API partners is Glow, for iOS and Android.
Glow's menstrual and ovulation calendars help women learn about their fertility, whether avoiding or attempting pregnancy. Glow (https://glowing.com) is a period tracker that also records your ovulation, mood, symptoms, sex, and medications, and assists those undergoing fertility treatments like IVF or IUI. With their latest app release, Glow also allows for male partners to have their own experience within the Glow app that helps them track their own fertility health.
"Partnering with Walgreens will make it easier for women to manage their reproductive health and family planning," says Jennifer Tye, Glow's Vice President of Partnerships and Marketing. "The Glow App empowers users to take control of their reproductive health, and we're excited to give Glow users simplified access to birth control within the app. We believe that women should have access to information and insights about their bodies and their health, in every phase of their life. Our partnership with Walgreens is an important step in furthering that mission."

Recap: Evans Data - Developer Relations Conference
We recently took a quick jump to the Palo Alto / Bay Area and sponsored the Evans Data Developer Relations Conference. There, we witnessed a plethora of developer evangelists and developer relations program managers across a variety of companies and industries.
We had discussions and focused learning events that enabled attendees to learn about how the Walgreens Developer Program is run. We also listened to success stories and lessons learned from everyone, with great interactive presentations from Twilio to Phillips Hue.
Our fearless leader, Joe Rago, shared his extensive knowledge about our developer program, which we actually attempted to live stream to the masses. Other then blowing minds and changing perspectives of Walgreens, he also received some great feedback on things to look forward to in our program. If you weren't there for his presentation, don't worry, the slides are embedded below!
Developer Evangelist, Drew Schweinfurth, also got to take the great opportunity to play the role of "General" at a new portion of the event dubbed the "Developer Bootcamp". This portion was a unique experience with about 20 different industry newbies and leaders that are directly invloved in molding and shaping the developer programs of their organizations. He took the role of evangelist in true fashion and talked about two major topics: Trying New Things and Onboarding Developers. The slides are embedded below:
