TapCounter app for effortless data collection

Passive data + Cognitive tests + Questionnaires
– now seamlessly collected in one app!

The TapCounter app passively collects high-resolution timing data from smartphone touchscreen interactions. It also supports optional active assessments, including cognitive tests and questionnaires. TapCounter enables ecologically valid, out-of-lab measurement without the need for wearables — promoting high participant adherence. The app runs unobtrusively in the background and does not display any data to the user.
