#### **Advanced EMA & survey data**
Go beyond static questionnaires with Labfront’s [advanced task scheduling](https://help.labfront.com/task-scheduling-ema?hsLang=en). Our ecological momentary assessment (EMA) tools trigger surveys on precise schedules to capture in-the-moment feedback and reduce recall bias. Combine subjective responses with objective sensor data for a more complete view of participant health.
#### **Event tracking data**
Gain deeper insights by tracking exactly when participants start and finish specific tasks, providing a clear timeline of participant behavior.

### How Labfront works
The Labfront workflow is designed to be intuitive, moving you from study design to data analysis in four simple steps:
1. ##### **Build:** Create your customized project in minutes on the Labfront dashboard. Choose your data streams and set up your participant task schedule.
2. ##### **Invite:** Send invitations to your participants. They simply [download the](https://www.labfront.com/download-app)[Labfront App](https://www.labfront.com/download-app) (iOS/Android) and connect their wearable device.
3. ##### **Monitor:** Track [participant adherence](https://help.labfront.com/track-adherence?hsLang=en) in real-time. If a participant misses a task or their device stops syncing, you can send proactive messages to keep them on track.
4. ##### **Analyze:** [Download your data](https://help.labfront.com/download-data?hsLang=en) as clean, timestamped CSV files ready for analysis in your preferred statistical software.
