Issues

I was asked to fill out a lengthy survey at which I got to about 3/4 done and the program bombed, just exited. All that I had done was gone. Now you want me to spend another half hour on your survey and what if it bombs again?

Crashes when trying to open

The app for iPhone works fine, but when downloaded the version for the ipad, it crashes instead of opening.

Way to many bugs and app freezes

Opted out of the study and deleted the app because this app is way too buggy, and freezes all the time. Extremely frustrating to try to use it. Even after you delete the app they keep spamming you with text messages and no way to turn them off. Stop!!

App is broken

You can’t reset your password because the password link that they send expires before you have time to tap in a new password. You can’t contact the program coordinator for assistance because the app won’t let you. Can’t reset the password, can’t login, can’t help out. You really need to get your app fixed.
