User reviews

Forcing account creation

App was good but forces account creation now.

Unusable

Tried to gain access to the app in a game when an athlete had a possible concussion. The app asked for phone or email to send a code. I had set up an account previously, but received no code to my phone and an error message saying my email didn’t exist. Then, when I tried to register a new account with my email, I received an error message saying I couldn’t do that because that email is already registered.

Meanwhile, precious time is being wasted on the evaluation and treatment of a possible head injury in kid sport.

I was really optimistic about this tool and how great it would be on game days, so this was really disheartening.

Amazing resource. Every parent and sport associate should have this.

My daughter banged her her with another child in dance. It seemed minor but within an hour she was vomiting. Using this app I was able to monitor her symptoms and ended up seeking medical assistance which determined she did have concussion. I’ve since continued using it for her recovery plan and to monitor her symptoms improving.
