Welcome to the Nexus App

This guide is for patients using the Nexus mobile app. It walks you through everything from signing up to using each part of the app.

The Nexus app helps you stay connected with your care team and access information and tools tailored to you. Your organisation (for example, your NHS trust or clinic) provides the app, so its name, colours, and logo may look specific to them — but the way it works is the same.

What you can do

  • Read content — articles, guides, and videos prepared by your care team
  • Fill in forms — questionnaires and trackers (like recording test results over time)
  • Message your care team (if your organisation has this turned on)
  • Join the community to connect with others (if turned on)
  • See your Health Passport — a summary of your details and what you’ve submitted
  • Manage your profile and notifications

The five tabs

Once you’re signed in, you move around using the tab bar at the bottom of the screen:

ContentBrowse all the articles, guides, and forms
MessagesChat with your care team (if enabled)
SocialCommunity posts and discussions with others (if enabled)

If you don’t see the Messages or Social tab, your organisation hasn’t enabled that feature.
