Was it lunch, or something yesterday? When your stomach is unpredictable, memory is a poor record.
Digest Diary is a privacy-first food and digestive symptom diary for iPhone and iPad. Log meals, symptoms and bowel movements in seconds, then review them on one neutral timeline. It is built for people with IBS, bloating, food sensitivities, reflux or irregular bowels, for anyone following a low-FODMAP plan with a dietitian, and for parents keeping track of a child's tummy troubles.
LOG WHAT HAPPENED
• Meals: breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, with favorites you can reuse
• Symptoms: bloating, gas, pain, diarrhea, constipation, nausea or your own custom symptom, with 0–10 severity, duration and "still ongoing"
• Bowel movements: Bristol stool types 1–7, urgency, and flags such as blood, mucus, straining, incomplete or night-time
• Notes and tags, plus medications and supplements you can repeat with one tap
• "Feeling OK today" with one tap, so a good day is a data point too
• Gentler options: pause logging, or track only symptoms and bowel movements
SEE WHAT CAME BEFORE
Tap any symptom or bowel movement and "What Came Before" lists everything you logged in the 4 to 72 hours earlier, in order. It shows sequence, never causation. What it means is for you and your care team to decide.
A TIMELINE THAT STAYS NEUTRAL
• Today view and a History calendar with search and filters
• Entries logged 12 or more hours later are clearly marked as back-filled
• Tag management and fast time picking when you are logging after the fact
A REPORT YOUR DOCTOR CAN READ
Create a PDF built around a one-page summary for the clinician, followed by a day-by-day log. Preview any date range at any time. Sharing a PDF of up to 14 days is included for everyone.
APPLE HEALTH, REMINDERS AND LOCK
• Optionally show sleep and menstrual cycle from Apple Health as context. It is read-only and nothing is copied into your diary
• Local reminders that never leave your phone
• App Lock with Face ID, Touch ID or your passcode
• Siri and Shortcuts
• Two-column layout on iPad, and support for both screens on iPhone Duo
• 11 languages, switchable inside the app
DIGEST DIARY PRO (IN-APP PURCHASE)
Everything above works without Pro. These features require a Pro purchase:
• Share or save PDF reports longer than 14 days
• CSV export
• Unlimited history (without Pro, you see the last 14 days)
• Charts, summaries and comparisons: personal trends per symptom, previous-period comparison, and 90-day, all-time or custom ranges
• Guided note templates for IBS, low-FODMAP, food sensitivity and doctor visit prep
• Food challenge: a low-FODMAP reintroduction flow where you enter the food and its group and log portions day by day. The app never judges tolerance, and it does not include a FODMAP food database
• Multiple profiles, for a child, a partner or yourself
• Premium themes
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Your diary stays on your device. There is no account, no ads and no tracking. The only identifier is an anonymous ID used to manage purchases. Export a complete JSON backup and restore it any time, or delete all your data from Settings.
IMPORTANT
Digest Diary is a record-keeping tool. It does not diagnose, treat or give medical or dietary advice, and it never says that one food caused a symptom. Talk to a doctor or registered dietitian about your symptoms, and seek care promptly for severe pain, bleeding or other worrying signs.
Pro requires an in-app purchase. Choose a monthly or annual auto-renewable subscription, or a one-time lifetime purchase.
