### 5/5 — Great app! They really thought of everything!

*2026-08-09*

Literally every is TOO easy. I use this to track my data, and it works great. The only thing i would change is more fit bit, heath tracker type stuff?

### 2/5 — App won’t open

*2026-06-08, version 2026.5*

The app was working great. After the latest updates, the app won’t open. Any idea how I can get it to open? Do I need to delete and reinstall?

### 4/5 — ACTUALLY FREE

*2025-06-30*

As someone that has been chronically ill for 16 years, get this. You can customize symptoms and treatments. Then, the app will generate monthly PDF reports, again for free, of those symptoms and interventions with graphs. 

You do not have to give access to your EMR (medical record). That is your choice to do so. I have not and am able to use the app without any issues. You can also search for other research studies to be a part of. 

All-in-all this app is amazing. Get it. You literally have nothing to lose. Plus your input can help with research and cures!

### 1/5 — Worse than Useless

*2025-06-16*

App is supposed to track multiple activities, symptoms and pacing budget.  Doesn’t really do any of that - AND you have to give them your health data to find that out AND then they make it impossible to cancel membership or remove the app from your phone.  Claims to work with Apple Watch, but really doesn’t.  It does connect to my Health app on iPhone, but the only metric it displays from that app is number of steps, which adds nothing to what I had without this app.   App has no Help feature, no way to submit questions or get tech help, or other guidance about how to use this app. I’ve wasted three hours answering survey questions, trying to make use of this thing, and then trying to get rid of it.  Total waste of time.

### 5/5 — Great Symptom Tracker

*2024-11-27*

I have multiple chronic and autoimmune conditions.I had been trying different symptom trackers looking for one that was easy to use and gave a usable record of my symptoms.  Not only that, it interfaces with multiple longitudinal studies so my symptoms can contribute to studies looking to gather information and manage multiple diagnoses.  Win/Win!

**Developer response:** We are so pleased to hear that you are finding our app to be advantageous for you! Thank you for letting us know.

### 1/5 — Hard to delete the app

*2024-07-26*

On the pregnancy plus app this app is advertised for you to get a free fitbit if you share your data and join a program.. i think its just for you to sign up. I want to delete my account but it makes it hard to do so. I emailed support and they say they withdrew me from the program but the app says im still apart of it.. its a waste of time other apps have more information than this. I feel played and i am still struggling on getting my account deleted.. smh

**Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out. Please send an email to mydatahelps-support@carevolution.com so that we can help resolve your issue.

### 5/5 — Best symptom journal app

*2024-01-16*

This app is a dream for those with chronic illnesses. From the ease of merely tapping a symptom within Symptom Shark to the notices of energy output needed to complete a survey in Solve Together, this app is what I’ve been looking for. You can also print your data to take with you to the doctor. So easy!

**Developer response:** Thank you for your feedback and for your five star review. We are so glad to hear that you are finding this app valuable!

### 5/5 — Wonderful to proactively participate!

*2023-11-29*

This app combined with my Fitbit predicted my second case of Covid 19 BEFORE I felt ill enough to take a test. The app prompted me to test, based on the Fitbit info sent to it. I believe it was a rise in my resting heart rate and other sleep factors. 
   I was indeed positive and therefore was able to start Remdesivir right away. I am immunocompromised and my doctors wanted to be proactive about the disease. 
  The app is easy and a good way to track disease progression and also to track vaccination and testing.
  The developers are definitely rockstars in my book.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your positive feedback!

### 5/5 — Colour is everything

*2023-09-22*

I have Long Covid and have used many many symptom tracking apps and websites over the years. Most of them are monochrome and quite blocky to use-this one in contrast has shapes and custom colours which mean a whole lot more to me. They also mean it’s more friendly and less stressful and energy consuming to use!

### 2/5 — Loading error

*2023-07-31*

This app worked great for a couple years but in the last few months it comes up with a loading error and is now unreliable.

**Developer response:** Thank you for reaching out. Please send an email to mydatahelps-support@carevolution.com so that we can help resolve your issue.
