EDMONTON—Need some medical marijuana? There’s an app for that.
An Alberta-based pot producer has launched a mobile app to make it easier for patients with a prescription to purchase federally-regulated medicinal weed.
Cam Battley, of Aurora Cannabis, said the idea was to give customers the same service as giant online retailers such as Amazon.
“As far as we know, it is the first legal app for Android and Apple for federally-approved legal medical cannabis,” Battley said.
“The fact is that people live on their phones and tablets. They use them to shop for everything from consumer products and health products to medicine. It is an acknowledgment of the reality of how people operate today.”
