## Description

Sway Medical is a FDA-cleared Chrome extension that uses a mobile device's built-in motion sensors to quantify balance and reaction time. It provides an objective tool for clinicians to assess fall risk, monitor recovery from injury, and detect instability from medication changes. Access is limited to users with a Sway account.

Designed for healthcare professionals, Sway enables objective assessment of balance and cognitive function to support patient monitoring and clinical decision-making.

## Review summary

Overall, reviews indicate the app is unreliable and hard to use. The main concerns are inaccurate results, frequent crashes and saving problems, and tests that are long and tedious. Many users are required to use it by schools, which leads to delays and repeated retakes. The combination of reliability issues, time consumption, and a frustrating user experience dominates feedback and suggests the app is not fit for evaluating concussions in its current form.

### Cons

- Inaccurate or unreliable results (false positives) and the possibility of missing real concussions.
- Frequent crashes, bugs, and data-saving/retake issues that disrupt progress.
- Tests are extremely long and tedious, sometimes taking hours to complete.
- Mandatory use by schools with long delays in results and retake loops that can last weeks.
- Poor user experience with glitches and a confusing/repetitive workflow.
