Annie App for Veterans
Annie Veteran Quick Start
Annie is a VA messaging service that empowers Veterans to take an active role in their care. Messages you receive from Annie can include reminders to take your medication, tips for reducing stress, instructions to prepare for your health care appointments, and more. Annie can also send you broadcast messages from your VA medical center. Once you are registered for Annie and have chosen your Annie health subscriptions, you will receive automated text messages. Annie helps you take charge of your health, one text at a time.
Using Annie is completely voluntary and is designed to support your self-care. Annie messages are automated and are not regularly checked by your care team. Your provider cannot directly exchange text messages with you through Annie. Annie cannot be used:

Texts can remain on your phone and with the companies that transmit the messages forever. If anyone else has access to your phone, they may be able to read text messages from Annie intended only for you.
