Abstract
Background and Objectives Cohort studies investigating respiratory disease pathogenesis aim to pair mechanistic investigations with longitudinal virus detection but are limited by the burden of methods tracking illness over time. In this study, we explored the utility of a smartphone app to robustly identify symptomatic respiratory illnesses, while reducing burden and facilitating real-time data collection and adherence monitoring.
