RNI Health App is designed and developed by the neuroscientists, engineers, and researchers at the Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute (RNI) and Innovation Center which is a signature program at West Virginia University and WVU Medicine. RNI is the premier multidisciplinary institute for patient care, research, and teaching in West Virginia and the region. The all new RNI Health App provides a holistic approach of exchanging information with the participants and patients who are enrolled with RNI for various problems, programs, studies, and research protocols such as Addiction, Chronic Pain, Cognitive Disorders, Epilepsy, Headache, Human Performance, Movement Disorders, Neuromodulation, Neuro-Oncology, Spine, Stroke, and many more. Primary purpose of the Health App is to connect with the users who are participants of a research study in understanding and finding the underlying causes of certain illnesses. These studies and research protocols are approved by WVU’s Institutional Review Board and compliance teams. Health App Features: Ability for participants to record and share important lifestyle factors such as sleep, diet, physical activities, and stress Ability to record and share health information such as mood, symptoms, temperature, and answer survey questions Ability to notify participants and remind to complete any pending tasks Ability for participants to engage in cognitive task Consent: Participation and enrollment in the study or programs is completely voluntary. All the participants who are enrolled in the study will have to first review and consent with the terms and conditions as shared by Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute(RNI). The consent is shared externally using the electronic means where users will sign and submit if they are volunteering to participate. Participants at anytime can discontinue from the study, uninstall the app, and stop sharing the information. Data: Data is shared with Rockefeller Neuroscience Institute which is critical for research analytics. Services: This app could also use Remote Notifications, and Background Processes to Push Notifications to Users. ## Key features - Record lifestyle factors (sleep, diet, activity, stress) - Share health information (mood, symptoms, temperature) - Complete survey questions - Receive task reminders - Engage in cognitive tasks - Voluntary participation and data sharing ## Recent user reviews (10 of 11) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/rni-health/id1515732074/reviews.md ### 1/5 — Having trouble since update *2022-03-02* Since update the other day I’m having trouble the assignments like sleep quality flanker and 13 others I believe but they will not get approved or allow me to finish each day I don’t know what the problem is or what I should do to fix it I’m part of a study and I earn with participation and my study is kinda stuck help me if you can ### 3/5 — Crashes *2020-08-07* The app overall isn’t bad. Neither is it a top-notch performing app. I understand that it’s either this app or one of the other apps I had to download is still in it’s developing phase. That said, the surveys used to work. I have the iPhone 11Pro with the latest software update (for Apple). I used to be able to take the surveys with no problems. Now I click on a survey, under the “Surveys” tab and the screen goes white and I cannot see any of the questions. This morning I went to look into the app, in the App Store and it reflected I needed to, “Get” the app. I’m not sure if an update was pushed for RNI, however, the app still needs work. Otherwise, the rest of the app is working just fine. ### 1/5 — Not great at all *2020-08-04* I use the ring they gave me for the app and the associated oura app is great but this is unbearable. You cannot get through 1 question they ask without the app crashing. When I was posed with 46 pretty much yes or no questions it took me about 30 minutes to get through because it crashed every question. I still cannot complete cognitive tasks they required because the app doesn’t stay alive long enough to get through it. **Developer response:** Brett1019, Your feedback is important in improving the app and we appreciate it! We are assuming that you are able to update the app to the latest version (2.0) earlier this week and still facing this issue. To troubleshoot and learn more about the crash, can you please reach our support at jira@amazingrni.atlassian.net and provide us the best way to reach you. Thank You! ### 1/5 — App won’t load *2020-07-21* Can’t get the app to work. Along with a few of my friends who also have the app. ### 1/5 — Non-functional *2020-07-07* After creating a username the app displays a blank white screen after logging in. No functionality at all. Tried many restarts but no difference. Doesn’t work at all. ### 1/5 — App constantly closes out *2020-07-06* I can answer all my questions by just continuously logging back in when the app closes. However I am unable to complete cognitive tasks due to the app closing out during and having to restart. I’ve emailed support and have not gotten any response. Not sure how I’m supposed to help with this research if I can’t even complete what is required. ### 1/5 — RN *2020-07-03* I have downloaded this app as a participant in a research project regarding the oura ring. The app keeps crashing and I have been unable to complete the questions and testing for the project. ### 1/5 — Constantly crashes. Can’t use. *2020-06-27* Seems promising if the app would work. ### 1/5 — Constantly crashing *2020-06-20* I’m trying to participate in a study by Oura and the app keeps crashing. Very frustrating. Help! ### 5/5 — Cool features when related to RNI research *2020-06-20* Unless you link the app with the RNI, it provides just basic functionality and a few glitches that are getting better with new versions. If connected with Oura ring and RNI and if IRB I get my forecasted shield score and temperature. ## Frequently asked questions about RNI Health ### What is RNI Health used for?
