Understand the Home Screen – Pattern Health Technologies

There is a lot to explore when a participant opens the Pattern Health App for the first time. This article walks through the features of the home screen.

The Home Screen

When you open the app, you will see the Home Screen first. Here, you can find your To-Do list for the day. It might look something like this:

Let's walk through what we see here!

Timeline

At the top of the home screen, we have the timeline. At a quick glance, you can tell which phase you are currently in. You can also scroll ahead to determine when the next phase begins.

Virtual Pet or Meter

Below the timeline, we have the virtual pet or meter. This will measure your task adherence as you move through the plan. When you complete all of your tasks on time, the pet will be happy or your scale will be green. When you miss tasks, the pet/scale will react accordingly.

To Do:

The To-Do section outlines the tasks that you have to complete today. If you see tasks in the To-Do section that are greyed out, make sure that it says "Today" at the top of your screen on the timeline. You cannot complete tasks from yesterday's To-Do list. Similarly, the app will not allow you to scroll ahead and complete future tasks. You will see greyed-out tasks in the To-Do sections of previous or future days.

Past:

The Past section of the Home Screen will list the tasks you completed today. Here, you can review the measurements you entered for some wellness activities (i.e. check weight or heart rate). If you want to review more of your past measurements, click on the History tab.

Navigation Bar

At the bottom of the screen, we have the navigation bar. Every app is a little different, but you will likely see a combination of the following icons.

The home icon is teal because we are currently on the home screen. If we click on any of the other icons, we can access other parts of the app. You will be able to review your past activities, complete ad-hoc activities, browse through the content library, chat with other participants or providers, refer back to all the tasks in your plan and review your app settings.
