SAFETY AND PEACE OF MIND WITH CUSTOMIZABLE SEIZURE DETECTION Epipal is the ultimate epilepsy tracker and seizure safety companion. Epipal runs in the background and monitors sensors in your loved one's phone and/or watch and attempts to detect convulsions associated with tonic clonic seizures, and different types of falls. When an emergency situation is suspected, an alarm is triggered, and if not disarmed within a preset time, an alert notification is automatically sent to members of your emergency contacts. Epipal uses a combination of motion related sensors as well as API integration with Apple's Health App to gather heart rate data to monitor for different types of seizures.

It has so far sent me 12 seizure alerts, 7 today alone. My son was at school every time it happened and clearly was not having a seizure. ### 2/5 — Lack of response *2026-04-06* Have emailed the creators twice in the last 2.5 weeks with no response. In the past they were quick to reach out. App has missed seizures my daughter has experienced and am hoping for possible advice. Will delete app soon and look elsewhere if no response. ### 1/5 — ZERO SUPPORT! *2025-09-23, version 1.8.0* I have been trying for 2 months to contact them for support with no luck. I have spoken with the Epilepsy Foundation as well since this is their recommended app. And by the way, I had a seizure while wearing my watch with the app active with no alarm. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2025-09-15* Don’t waste your money if you have local convulsions. It doesn’t work with arm clenching and rapid shakes. Maybe it works with a full body convulsion, and/or fall, but didn’t work for my son when his hand clenches and arm shakes while sleeping. Didn’t pick up heart rate increase either. Nothing went off, no alert. Good thing he sleeps with us. Still haven’t found a device to help with ESES-CSWS / DEE-SWAS seizures ### 4/5 — Amazing app - but issues with health tracking *2025-08-05* I love the heart rate / motion detector trackers shown on my watch - but my watch died before noon each day and my health tracker noted that I had met my move / calorie goal everyday before noon (apparently working off of only my heart rate) even though I work in an office setting and spend my day seated. If these two things could be changed, or if there’s something I can do to revise settings on my side, the app would be perfect. ### 1/5 — Sorry, HR isn’t enough *2025-07-14* My son (7) had a seizure in the morning, no alarm went off. HR alone isn’t enough data to determine an on coming seizure. Additionally, it doesn’t distinguish between ordinary awake activity which may raise the HR from at rest activity where a sudden HR spike might indicate early warning for a potential seizure episode. To add, the types of epilepsy list s very short. My son has ESES/CSWS aka DEE-SWAS, which is seizures only during sleep, a rare for of seizures but these more rare and nuanced types should be accounted for ### 3/5 — Updates Need Work *2025-04-13* Would be fantastic if the watch would sync without needing continuous rebooting of both devices. Seems as though when taking off/charging, synchronization is lost. This also occurs if power cycling. Should just be a re-sync process. The app seems to flip back to phone all of the time. This occurs even if the watch is logging. ### 3/5 — good app, bad at logging medications *2025-04-13, version 1.7.5* no complaints except for the medication logging system. i deleted a medication yet i still get notifications to take it, even though the app still says i have no medications logged. i also can’t edit a medication once i’ve logged it. otherwise, this is perfect for someone with controlled epilepsy! lots of love to the creator, been on a tech support call with him and seems nice and dedicated. ### 1/5 — Account set doesn’t even work *2025-03-25* Downloaded this app to try monitoring my daughter’s seizures. Add Patient info screen fails to save and the app is nonfunctioning unless I add a family member. I’ve tried to send invites to add family member from the app and nothing works. Zero confidence in an app that costs $250 per year if you can’t even get past the account setup phase. ### 1/5 — Login *2025-03-05, version 1.7.4* How do you login? It’s not giving me a code every time I try to login my email. It says my email is wrong. ## Frequently asked questions about Epipal ### What does Epipal do?
