Helpful and free, not without its bugs
I like using Wave because it doesn’t require me to be diagnosed with anything or on medications to use it. I love adding my own symptoms and I basically use the app like journal for my physical symptoms throughout the day. However, I have often experienced that my symptom list gets erased if the app crashes. It can be really slow sometimes (like when logging bowel movements, etc.) and having to relist all my symptoms frequently annoys me. Other than that you aren’t going to find a better health tracking app for free!

Set symptoms disappeared randomly
One day all of my symtoms disappeared as options when I get my notification to update how I feel. They still show on the charts view, but I can't actually update them and now have to manually add everything back. Would love a backup option or something to make this easier.
Additionally, it would be great to get better data visualization or at least averaging options for symptoms. The chart view is very difficult to actually see trends on and a rolling average might improve readability.

Pretty good
It’s a good application but a bit glitchy and slow
Besides that it really is good
I’m using it for recording my antidepressant withdrawal symptoms

Wave health UX and UI
Love the UX and UI, very easy to use, definitely check this app out!
Excellent!
Revolutionized my patient journey, and really gave me a feeling of control! 10/10 would recommend
Broken links
I JUST got this app opened and partially set up, i go to add medications and it shuts down. Tried over and over and it keeps shutting down.
Contacts!
So far I think the app is great minus the fact that I can’t seem to add but only one contact (doctor)??? Those of us with chronic illness have multiple doctors. Please fix this, or let me know what I’m doing wrong.
Good but….
I’m not sure if my phone is the issue here but this app is incredible for anyone with invisible/chronic illness and wanting to track symptoms.
I noticed when trying to edit the medication that it would not save the edited information despite me changing it.
This has only happened starting today but it’s started crashing every time I open the app and I lost all my profile information despite having set it all up.
Without these issues, the app is great. Though I wish it worked a bit better.

Great for symptoms tracking, medication reminders too basic
I am using this app to track daily symptoms due to chemo and it is BRILLIANT!
To get the full power of the charts and corresponding insights, the medication reminder functionality could be improved as currently is too basic for anyone with a chronic condition and multiple meds to be taken several times a day, most at different intervals and sometimes on specific days only.
I have to use a separate app for my meds reminders (“pill reminder”, brilliant for that!) which is a shame as would love to use WAVE as a one stop shop.

Hi, Thank you for kind words and for letting us know about the medication tracking reminders! We are actually rolling out a brand new redesigned and revamped version of Wave very soon. Keep in touch and we'll let you know when and how we've addressed your concerns. Best, Claudia
suggestions!
just started using this and i love this app so far! there are a few suggestions i have after playing around with the app that i think may be helpful:
a. not select a start/end date for medication. i’ve been on medication for years so i don’t remember the start date and there isn’t an end date in sight for my meds. i also take supplements and those don’t really need a start/end date
b. make a 3rd gender option for those who don’t identify as male or female
