This release of Cortex has a number of new features which further enhance the scope of care coordination the solution provides.


Widget

The first major new enhancement is a dedicated Cortex widget. In this first iteration, it allows a glanceable view of whether you are signed in or signed out - we've got some cool ideas for the future to make this even better.


To add the Cortex widget to your iPhone or iPad home screen long press on the screen, press the plus button in the top left then scroll down to find the widget.



FaceID/Touch ID

This new version of Cortex allows users with iOS biometrics, i.e. FaceID/Touch ID, to login as quickly and easily as possible, all while retaining the very best data security and encryption available on a mobile device. FaceID/TouchID login is available for personally owned/setup devices at organisations that use AzureAD login
