Autism & Beyond

Autism & Beyond is a groundbreaking new study of childhood mental health powered by Apple’s ResearchKit. The study aims to test new video technology that can analyze a child’s emotion and behavior. We hope that this technology may one day be used to screen young children in their homes for autism and mental health challenges, such as anxiety or tantrums. We want parents to have tools that will help them understand their children and find help if they need it.

Waste of time

Why is this app still available if the study is over? You could remove it or put right on the details page that is is done.


Not finished yet

In order for the program to work properly it needs access to the camera to capture facial gestures of the child, however it seems that the developer did not set up the security configuration to actually ask for access to the camera, so the app self is useless at least on my phone.


Very interesting

First, the videos that my son did won't load or play, one still says processing and we stated this back in March. There has been no new or recent surveys, last one was April, it is almost July. I'm beginning to wonder when I use this app, if this is what my son is going through everyday.


Feels very one sided.

No updates. No surveys for a long time. I emailed the team to see if the study was still running - no reply. If we have the good grace to sign up to help you out (I know you are busy but I make it to 5 days of ABA, speech & OT) - perhaps you could find time to let us know if the study is over!?
