FAQPage Schema
How do I collect iOS sensor data for an approved research study?

SensorKit enables you to securely collect research-grade sensor data from iOS and watchOS devices for approved studies. It covers ambient light, motion, device usage, keyboard metrics, and media events once a study is authorized.

What is the 24-hour data holding period for iOS sensor data collection?

The 24-hour data holding period is a privacy constraint enforced by SensorKit for iOS sensor data collection. It delays access to collected sensor metrics, ensuring participant privacy and data governance before researchers can retrieve the data.

Do I need special entitlements to access watchOS motion and ambient light data?

Yes, accessing ambient light, motion, and device usage data requires the SensorKit entitlement and manual provisioning. These steps enforce data governance and ensure only authorized studies collect participant sensor metrics.

What types of metrics can I monitor using SensorKit for research?

Using SensorKit for research, you can monitor ambient light, motion, device usage, keyboard metrics, and media events. This data is collected from iOS and watchOS devices under strict study authorization and per-sensor consent protocols.

Can I use SensorKit to run a study monitoring participant activity without compromising privacy?

Yes, you can run a study to monitor participant activity while preserving privacy through SensorKit. It enforces per-sensor consent, requires explicit user authorization, and adheres to a 24-hour data holding period to protect participant data.
