Ratings and reviews

I'm very glad this app exists since it gives me an opportunity to contribute to the fields currently looking into COVID 19. However the app could use some improvements. When adding medications, the dosage schedule selection does not work. I have to select "other" and input manually. Overall the UI is fairly well designed and easy to navigate. I look forward to future updates while I continue participating in surveys! ;)

This app is very well designed. It is so easy to use, which makes the surveys a breeze to complete. Even the color scheme they chose makes the experience pleasant. If I ever have any trouble, their team is quick to respond with support. It's easy to make a difference with their surveys when using this app. I would highly recommend it.

App was finally updated/fixed to a point where I can take the survey again. Updating to 4 stars due to working again, but going months without a fix. I originally gave this five stars, but the last update made it so I can no longer open the app. It either crashes or fails to connect each time. Hopefully there'll be another update soon to fix this.
