Platform-Wide Updates

Keep participants engaged with our new message randomizer. How delightful!

Wanna switch up the messages you send participants everyday so they don't get bored? You can now create a set of messages for responses to participants and Way to Health will randomly choose one to send to the participants each day. This will allow for you to add some delight to the experience by making the messaging less repetitive! 


"Ctrl + C" your surveys!

We know some of you over-achievers have multiple projects on the WTH platform. So we figured we would make your life a little easier by allowing you to be able to copy surveys between studies! 


Schedule participant start by day of the week

You can now schedule participants to start on a certain day of the week. This is a function in enrollment and can be configured in logic settings! 

Is your build ready for prime time?

We developed a site "check up" page that looks through your entire set-up and alerts you about any potential hiccups in your design. We also let you know when everything looks good to go! You can find the "Error Checks" page on the Manage Study drop down. 

 

 

 

New profile field: External ID

Using multiple systems to keep track of your participants? Now you can store an external ID in WTH for each participant! You will be able to enter this in their profile during enrollment! 

Locking ya out

With your participants security in mind, we have created a new feature that will lock you out after 5 failed password entry attempts. You can always reset your password if you forgot your old one! 

Behind the Scenes 

Medication reminder option removal

We had something called "medication reminder" as an option in arm settings. This was an old functionality that was no longer used, so we went ahead and deleted that option to clean up the arm settings view!

Updated version of Twilio

We use Twilio to send out text messages from the platform, we did some updating on the backend for their phone numbers from version 4.1 to 4.2. This basically means, their software had a little update.
