Our trusted partner

The symptom tracker was developed in cooperation with Charité – Universitätsmedizin Berlin to supplement CovApp, the online questionnaire helping people with potential symptoms of COVID-19 decide the appropriate measures to take.

If you’ve already used CovApp, it’s easy to import your results into the Data4Life app and continue tracking your symptoms.

Your symptom history when you need it

A day-by-day breakdown of your symptoms can help you take better care of yourself and be prepared for a possible visit to the doctor. Your personal symptom report in the symptom tracker is always accessible in the Data4Life app and will continue to be available for future reference.

Update your symptoms regularly

It’s important to record your symptoms as often as possible and incorporate it in your daily routine. Self-reporting is an effective way to document the course and development of COVID-19 in your personal case. The more often you use the symptom tracker, the more helpful and accurate your personal symptom report will be when you need it.

Show your doctor

Documenting your symptoms can be for more than just personal reference. If you decide to visit a doctor or hospital at some point during the COVID-19 pandemic, you can show your complete symptom history to a trusted medical professional and contribute to getting the best care possible.

German opinion: Donate data to fight COVID-19

The COVID-19 pandemic has truly reminded us how much our health and quality of life depends on medical research. Understanding a threat like coronavirus disease is essential to improving treatment and developing preventive measures like a vaccine.

In a survey from April 20–April 30, Data4Life asked 5,002 people in Germany if they would donate personal health data to help research coronavirus disease. An analysis of the results offers new insights on how public opinion varies throughout Germany among people from different regions and backgrounds.
