Phase N/A

This study will help us learn how data from wearable devices, like an Apple Watch or Fitbit, can show signs of a virus, like the flu. It will take place in the U.S. during the 2023-2024 flu season. People will wear their devices for at least 10 hours daily and fill out surveys about how they feel. They will also do nasal swab tests at home to check for viruses.

Eligibility: You can join if you live in the U.S., speak English, and have a suitable device. You must also be okay with wearing the device daily, connecting it to a special platform, and answering questions for 10 weeks. You should be ready to do at-home tests when asked.

  • The study lasts 10 weeks.
  • Participants must use their wearable devices daily.
  • Involves regular surveys and at-home tests.

Note: You cannot join if you had the flu or COVID recently or are part of another similar study.
