Few things I wish it could do: 1) be added to Apple Watch 2) make it easier to go back to the days episodes without having to go into the calendar 3) not require so much refreshing. If you do not refresh the numbers can look skewed ### 4/5 — My favorite… but could use some fixed *2024-04-02, version 1.15* This is still my favorite app to use for tracking my seizures throughout my day. I love it’s simple interface, the graphs and data provided, and the customizable seizure options! Features to consider: I would LOVE if the timer didn’t stop counting when my screen goes dark (I can’t keep track of my phone screen during seizure). I would also LOVE a widget for Apple, so that opening and tracking a seizure can happen with one tap. ### 4/5 — Great app *2024-02-27, version 1.15* Really helped tracking my seizures and managing as well as seeing trends in my different seizure types and symptoms ### 3/5 — Good but needs 3 things *2024-01-25, version 1.15* Like this app a lot to monitor my son’s seizures, but I wish I could figure out how to add this to his Apple Watch! I also would like to be able to go back into the day of seizures that have already been recorded without having to go into the calendar. Finally, I wish it would be able to alert me on my phone app each time he enters a seizure from his phone. ### 4/5 — Seizure Records *2024-01-05, version 1.15* Please considering adding a recovery category. Thank you. ### 4/5 — Easy to use *2023-06-24, version 1.15* It’s a good app to use, and I like that you can look back when you had a seizure from a calendar view. I give 4 stars because I wish you could view the note you left on the seizure much easier. To view it you have to go onto edit and I don’t like doing that because I’m worried I’ll loose the note it total. You can’t just view the note on the calendar ### 5/5 — Invaluable for my epilepsy management *2022-02-19, version 1.13* I’ve had epilepsy for 6 years following a brain injury and initially tried several apps to track my seizures - this is undoubtedly the best by far. I had a craniotomy four weeks ago for my epilepsy and the data I was able to extract from this app aided my neurosurgeons and epilepsy team to make decisions for my care. I can’t thank those behind the scenes enough. ### 4/5 — Export function *2022-01-07, version 1.13* I know you have indicated that the export function is being worked on, but really hoping we will see this soon. Thanks for An otherwise great app. ### 5/5 — A user *2021-10-04, version 1.11* I love this app and I have tried many others. I can put in my own triggers, activities, medications, fit types and notes like the last time I took paracetamol which helps keep track when my memory is affected. It helps me record fits post ictal because I’ve tailored it. It uploads info across my ios devices. I produce reports for my epilepsy specialists which are accurate and they are impressed too. ### 5/5 — Amazing app *2021-08-08, version 1.11* Genuinely so amazing! This app has helped me recognise certain trends in my seizures and when they happen that I didn’t notice on the paper records that I kept! THANK YOU TO THOSE THAT MADE THIS APP POSSIBLE 💜 ### 5/5 — Love this app *2021-05-17, version 1.11* Simple and easy to use. Thank you for making app. :) ### 3/5 — Almost *2020-09-20, version 1.7* A decent effort. Good design for comparative data... however... I’m desperately looking for something like this with Apple Watch compatibility, so I don’t have to have my phone with me all the time and I can integrate things a little better. I like the seizure recording method but it’s a little annoying that records can’t be amended after the fact, which would be important for a watch app (it likely wouldn’t be that precise on its own). ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-06-01, version 1.20.1* Questionable sketchy ads. Could use some custom configuration to track and upload a custom report. ### 1/5 — I paid for crashing *2022-10-02, version 1.13* I paid for premium so I can be sure to keep track of everything. Every time I click “generate report” or “email doctor”, the app just crashes and I see my phone’s Home Screen. ### 1/5 — Lost all my data AGAIN! *2021-02-11, version 1.11* This is the 2nd time I now lost all my data on this app. 1st was when I change phones, the app didn’t integrate my data between the phones. 2nd now was yesterday when I wanted to see how long since the last seizure when I could not go into the app and it says NO Data available. I am really disappointed!!! ### 1/5 — wish I could love it *2020-04-27, version 1.3* Unfortunately the app crashes, A LOT. And the last thing I want/need is a seizure tracker/log to crash when I’m in the middle of using it. Nice concept though. ### 1/5 — Poor functionality *2019-10-29, version 1.3* I downloaded the app to track new different seizures I think my son is experiencing. This makes it important for me to be able to write notes in the seizure log. The app wouldn’t allow the page to scroll down so I could actually see the input boxes above the screen keyboard, I couldn’t even copy into it. This made the app useless to me and so I had to delete. ### 2/5 — 急に開けなくなりました *2025-12-14* 選択肢の編集でトリガーとかの中身を全部消したからかもしれないけど開かなくなりました。まあまあ記録したけどやり直さないとかも。 アプリとしてはすごく使えるボタンを押してすぐ時間が測れるしあとは 開けなくなるのはとても困る、あと出来れば メモをあとから編集するときに前に書いたのは残って欲しい(追加しようとすると前のが消えます)、見返す時のメモをコピーをしたい これからも使いたいので ### 2/5 — Fing gut an, aber...... *2022-01-05* Nach einem super Start, ließ die Funktion massiv nach! Der Kalender funktioniert seit dem letzten Update nicht mehr, App bricht sofort zusammen, wenn man diese Funktion anwählt. Eine genaue Einsicht der Daten dadurch nicht mehr mgl. Bei mehreren verschiedenen Anfällen an einem Tag kann ich diese nicht mehr unterscheiden. Im Bericht ist nur die Gesamtanzahl eines Tages erkennbar. So ist sie für mich nur noch bedingt nutzbar. Bitte reparieren! ### 2/5 — Saisie de médicaments impossible *2021-01-21, version 1.11* L’application plante et ferme systématiquement à chaque tentative de saisir un médicament ! ### 3/5 — It WAS invaluable. Until the update…. *2025-04-23, version 1.18* I’ve relied on this app for a long time to relay my patterns to my neurologist, make a note of my seizure patterns, etc. and it worked brilliantly. Then after it was updated, it’s suddenly wiped 4yrs of important data clean off the app. All my records, patterns, everything, has gone. I’m gutted and haven’t found any way to get it back. ### 3/5 — Good App, But…. *2024-08-16, version 1.15* I really like this app, it easy to use but the biggest disappointment is it doesn’t integrate with Apple Watch, when the description states it can be used with Smart Watches. Is this something that can be addressed??? ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple to customize *2026-04-17, version 1.20.1* Love simple and this app makes tracking easy. I only wish the stop button was as large as the start button it can be hard to find and press post seizure ### 5/5 — Helpful tool. *2026-03-18, version 1.20.1* I’ve been tracking my son’s seizures with this journal for 5 years now. It’s been very helpful to see daily, weekly, monthly and annual data. I just want to say thank you ❤️ ### 5/5 — Loveee *2026-01-18, version 1.18* Love this app, the tracking is clear, data is easy to add, and I LOVE the reports that I can load and send to our neuro. Would love to be able to “add” people to the profile so they could upload data for our daughter too. Still love the app, recommend it all the time! ### 5/5 — Simple. Wonderful. *2025-10-28, version 1.18* I’ve used this for 6 years. I’ve tried so many other apps to track. Nothing beats this log and simplicity. ### 5/5 — Functional *2024-07-13* Functional app. Been using it for 5 years now. Best app in my opinion. It does need updating and additional functions. However, it’s simplicity and functionality earns it a solid 4.5. ### 5/5 — Epilepsy Journal *2024-02-11, version 1.15* Fantastic app. Easily negotiated Easily Customised, share to professionals, ### 5/5 — Best seizure recording app out there *2023-08-13* Thank you for creating this app. Now my automatic response when a seizure starts is to reach for my phone and hit the big seizure button. This helps warns people around me what is happening as I cannot talk until it finishes. I have the majority of them tracked since 2019 and a picture of my triggers - thank you! ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2023-06-25, version 1.15* This app is simple and easy to use. It has helped me track my seizures for years now. Thank you! ### 5/5 — Awesome tool *2022-10-10, version 1.13* So helpful for re recording clusters and can even email data to your dr. ### 5/5 — This app is fantastic *2022-05-28* We have been using this app for over 11 months. It’s fantastic that when using it you have data for the medical teams at your fingertips. I love that you can go to settings and add what’s appropriate for your needs. Example. My daughter has a seizure coming off the school bus nearly everyday. So you can add school bus. Honestly I’d be lost without this app. Even her medical team recommended this app to other E patients.
