Description

Making the world a healthier place just got a lot easier. We invite you to join over 350,000 people contributing to groundbreaking research using Apple Watch and iPhone. Your participation will add to an unprecedented initiative that has already led to new insights in human health and advancements in Appleʼs health technologies. 1. Join the Apple Women's Health Study, conducted in partnership with the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and National Institute of Health Sciences to help advance the understanding of menstrual cycles and health conditions such as infertility, osteoporosis, and menopause. 2. Join the Apple Health Study, conducted in partnership with the Brigham and Women's Hospital to explore different areas of health. Researchers are especially interested in the interconnectivity of various areas of health, such as the relationship between the menstrual cycle and heart health, or how hearing health can influence mental health. The study brings together diverse perspectives to advance science and develop features that work for us all. 3. Join the Apple Hearing Study, conducted in partnership with the University of Michigan to help advance the understanding of how sound exposure levels over time can impact your hearing, stress levels, and cardiac health. Features: Review available studies, learn about the research partners and the research goals, understand study expectations, and if you are eligible, enroll by providing your consent. Choose which data to share and with what study, and review and manage data collected. Perform relevant tasks for enrolled studies. Learn how other Apple research studies have contributed to advancements in health science and to the development of innovative health products. With your permission, this app can securely access the data you choose to share through the Apple Health app.

    I participated in a study for several years but now I have to quit because the app no longer functions and there is zero support. It’s a shame, all those years wasted because you can’t tap Next. 🤷🏻
  • Great idea, needs work

    My Medicare claims aren’t always syncing. Or I have to delete what is in the app and re-sync. I would love to see the claims for my managed Medicaid plan. Lastly, it would be great if Apple started creating a Vision Pro app to start collecting usage data for its impact on health.

    We should be able to customize our profile picture in this app. There should be more studies, for the good of man kind.

    Hi, i am a young user that likes to contibute to scociety and other things. I wish i could i could do surveys with my parents permission (of course) because some studies effect younger and older people, which are pretty much equally important. Thank you! 🌷🔬

    These are the researchers who actually run the study—say, at Harvard or Brigham & Women’s. They’re the ones analyzing the data, so they can be granted access to things Apple promises to keep “de-identified.” But “de-identified” is elastic. It might still include timestamps, location ranges, device type, or physiological readings—data that can quietly re-link back to a person if cross-referenced. Apple frames it as: “Researchers get only coded data, and Apple doesn’t know who you are.” But the flip side is: “The investigators may hold the key that reconnects your code to your real identity for medical follow-up or regulatory purposes.” So, if the university partner needs to contact you about an abnormal heart rhythm or to verify a consent form, they can technically do that. Legal In short: If the study ever becomes part of a medical-device submission, drug trial, or faces an ethics review, those bodies have the right to inspect the underlying data—including any “sensitive” information Apple otherwise keeps locked down. Apple builds the vault, but the study partners hold spare keys—and regulators can legally demand a master key.

    I don't understand how my cell can supposedly gauge my physical activity when I don't have my cell with me most of the time?!
  • Great concept needs stability improvements

    Love the idea of these studies. Frictionless to participate in. Current issue is that the app doesn’t recognize my AirPods Pro 3’s to complete the task.
  • App doesn't work right
