Study Alerts

The StudyAlerts App allows researchers to send local notifications to subjects without violating any regulatory requirements that do not allow the collection of personally identifiable information (e.g. IP address, email, phone number, etc.). A notification schedule can be uploaded via an external URL link containing the desired information and date/time when notifications and reminders should be sent - a process that will be carried out locally on the phone. This app is particularly useful for researchers that would like to send reminders (e.g. to fill in a survey at a particular time), without violating regulations about the collection of private data.

Main features:
- Local notification app without need for personal information like IP addresses or email
- Compliant with security regulations of specific institutions like the Veteran’s Affairs Medical Centers
- Allows import of any scheduled specified by researchers
