Cons | Charge on device required every 3-4 daysData returns a 0 value if participant does not sync instead of marking the event as "Skipped"
| Data connection with W2H has caused supportĀ Participants will sync and data does not get to W2H on timeMostly an issue for studies giving daily feedback, not necessarily a hindrance for studies collecting passive data
No intraday data currently
