The New Innovations mobile app is designed for graduate medical education (GME) Residents and Fellows, and undergraduate medical education (UME) students in today’s clinical learning environment. GME users can utilize Work Hours, Procedure Privileges, Procedure Logging, Evaluations and a QR code scanner for conference attendance tracking. UME users can also access Evaluations and the QR code scanner with more yet to come. Free from the constraint of returning to a desk or workstation, trainees can now engage with the key features of the New Innovations suite anywhere! Please Note: Most features of New Innovations are accessible and compatible with current mobile web browsers. The app delivers a secure, persistent log-in that requires users to sign in once, and then only again after 30 days of inactivity. All users must have a valid New Innovations log-in.

Underwhelming
Not a lot of great things here. At least fix the radial buttons in the milestone evals. They disappear randomly making it nearly impossible to even complete evals through the app. Doesn’t really even have basic functionality.
Stopped working
This app randomly stopped working yesterday. Fix it.
Need ipad version
Where is the iPad version?
“Select Activity” not working
When attempting to log work hours on the current version, the “Select Activity” option does not populate any of the presets like “shift” or “call.” It also doesn’t accept any possible free text option. Then you can’t submit work hours without a work activity selected. The current version is unusable for logging work hours from a mobile device.
Clunky interface
Having to use new innovations to log hours feels like a punishment. Why would you not give the option to use the same time range from the previous day? After every entry the date scrolls back to an earlier date. Give the option for work type to have a default. We moved from medhub, and for all of its faults, I appreciate it more than ever after using NI. Have the developers ever tried to use their own app? Essentially, they have no motivation to fix a design UI in an app we are forced to use. This is what the “lowest bidder” produces.

Activity tab issues
This below issue is happening again: For many residents at our program the “select activity” and “location” tabs are blank once you click on it. Unable to log hours via app. Could you please assist!
