Diverticulitis flares are frightening, and the scariest question is the simplest one: "What can I eat right now?" Diverticulitis Coach walks you through recovery one day at a time, so you always know what is safe to eat today and what the next stage looks like. YOUR FIRST FLARE IS FREE Your first in-app flare is completely free — every recovery stage, unlocked, with no interruptions. We do not ask you for payment while you are unwell. The features described below are part of full access, which requires a one-time purchase: the Flare Recovery unlock ($12.99). No subscription. FLARE MODE A guided plan through clear liquids, low-residue foods, and gradually adding fiber back — with the exact allowed and avoid lists for each stage. You decide when to move on, never the app. CAN I EAT THIS? Search any of 656 foods and get an answer for the stage you are in today. The same food can be a yes now and a no later — the app explains why, instead of leaving you guessing. RECOVERY COUNTDOWN See which day you are on, with plain guidance about when it is worth checking in with your clinician. HONEST ABOUT NUTS, SEEDS AND CORN You may have been told to avoid them for life. Large studies do not support that. We explain what the evidence actually says, and why they are only left out during one temporary stage. RECORDS FOR YOUR DOCTOR A clean flare history — dates, durations, antibiotics, CT-confirmed or not — and a plain PDF to bring to your GP or surgeon. Presented neutrally, with no recommendation either way. BETWEEN FLARES Track your flare-free days, build back to a high-fiber routine, and keep a personal list of the foods that genuinely bother you. IN FULL ACCESS Recipes and shopping lists for each stage · eating-out guidance by cuisine · a daily diary of what you ate and how it sat with you · a home-screen widget · large-text accessibility throughout. BUILT FOR COMFORT, NOT CLUTTER Large type, high contrast, one main action per screen. Your records stay on your iPhone. No ads. No trackers. No account needed. SOURCES Clinical content is based on Mayo Clinic, NHS, UCSF, AGA and ACG guidance, with sources shown in the app. PURCHASE DETAILS Flare Recovery ($12.99, USD; local price shown before purchase) is a one-time purchase. It does not renew, and there is no subscription. Privacy Policy: https://www.velorahealth.io/diverticulitis/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.velorahealth.io/diverticulitis/terms IMPORTANT This app helps you follow the diet plan your doctor recommends. It does not diagnose any condition, it cannot tell you whether you are having a flare, and it is not a substitute for medical care. If you have severe pain, a fever, bleeding, or cannot keep liquids down, contact your doctor or emergency services now. ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **One-time purchases** | Purchase | Price | Type | | --- | --- | --- | | Flare Recovery — pay once | $12.99 | one-time | ## Version history (last 2 releases) ### 1.1 — 2026-08-09 New in 1.1 — shaped by what people wrote to us after launch. RECORDING A FLARE • Set the day your symptoms actually began, not the day you installed the app. • Start at the stage your doctor has already put you on — no need to say you feel better just to get there. A DAILY DIARY • One page for each day: what you ate, how each thing sat with you, and how the day went. • Rating a food is a single tap. Writing is always optional. • Foods you've eaten several times build up into "Things you've noticed". AFTER A FLARE • "What your last flare looked like" — your own record of the first days, to compare against. • Two new sourced reads: why lingering symptoms are common and usually not another episode starting, and why the fear that follows is worth raising with your doctor. • The app can hold your follow-up colonoscopy date and remind you a week before. ALSO • The food list has grown to 656 items, including a lot more of what people actually eat. • Clear-liquid guidance now says plainly what the guidelines say: it is for comfort, the evidence is limited, and moving on when you feel ready is fine. ### 1.0 — 2026-08-06 No release notes. ## More apps by Ngo Pham Huy - [Luna: PCOS & Cycle Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/luna-pcos-and-cycle-tracker/id6775129332) - [Flarewell: Rosacea Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/flarewell-rosacea-tracker/id6775560170) - [Frost: Raynaud's & Cold Hands](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/frost-raynauds-and-cold-hands/id6777023191) - [Aster: Menopause Tracker](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/aster-menopause-tracker/id6777118642) - [Velora: Food Symptom Diary](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/velora-food-symptom-diary/id6777479115) - [PelvicFlow: Kegel Trainer](https://appshunter.io/ios/app/pelvicflow-kegel-trainer/id6778887920) All apps by Ngo Pham Huy: https://appshunter.io/developer/973008275 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
