Q: Why should I use your app?

A: The FDA wants to ensure all test results are reported, including from rapid lateral flow tests. This is so they can better manage the COVID-19 pandemic and prevent serious outbreaks from occurring since many scientists expect the virus will become endemic.

The app provides a detailed history of all your test results that you can show to family members or when you’re out and about in society.

And last but not least, the data you report enables public health officials to monitor geographic areas and follow up if needed. By reporting, you’re helping to improve the situation in your community and helping resources such as tests, vaccines and PPE be deployed more efficiently.
