Good, not great

It is a lightweight, basic, functional app. It lacks features. It doesn’t sync/export to Apple Health (where there is a diarrhea / constipation tracker) to take advantage of its features such as graphing.

Everything is free great app

Excellent App, Quick to Fix Bugs

User of 6 years. Grateful for the objective look at bowel health over the years that this provides. It is simple, straightforward, and gives all the info you need for tracking bowel habits. Export to CSV/XML allows graphing of your data if you want to see it. Adding an extra tier that would export data to Apple Health and/or graph it in the app itself would be a reasonable feature to consider for the less technical.

The price is fair for having a dedicated app: buy once, use it for life. It’s well worth the price to remove ad wait time once you’ve been using it for a while. And well worth it just for keeping bowel tracking photos separate from the rest of my life - even a hidden folder in the Photos app is asking for awkwardness, as there are too many opportunities to appear in places I don’t want them over the years (backups, imports to other devices, etc.). The peace of mind and organization is well worth it. And the app is still actively developed for bugs and new iOS updates. I appreciate that they haven’t tried switching to a ridiculous subscription model like so many other apps that don’t take substantial developer time on an ongoing basis. It’s fair, and it does the job.

Prior Review:
Long time user getting camera errors under iOS 18. Hope this is fixed soon. Been a great health app for tracking the not so glamorous but very important area of colon health. Definitely will update to 5 stars once this bug is fixed.

Works Well, But Let’s Help The Docs By Using ChatGPT

I am very happy with the straightforwardness of this application.

But… I would like to request that when it’s time for creating an export, it would be very useful if one could also opt to export both the poo scale diagram as well as a key associated with each numbered diagram image, e.g, 1: Small hard lumps (constipation).

While I’m sitting on the toilet, with a little else to do but dictate, I refer to mixed movements and other joys by number, and send in that info on my own.

After I export the report as a PDF, I now import it into my ChatGPT account and ask for it to create a summary.

It does a good job on this, given the highly detailed daily reports, and allows me to. That correct misinterpretations on the part of the app.

You can ask ChatGPT to identify general trends and refer to specific by date and time.

If the developers would come up with a number of ChatGPT or other AI’s to ask for specific kinds of summary sections that would be *lovely.*

Also, nice would be for the report -and especially since when one can send it off to an AI summarization - would be for the report to include a key or data dictionary section at the bottom that describes each data column in the report and refers explicitly to the Bristol scale.

All history gone. 7.5 years!

I got a new phone today and set it up and all of my 7.5 years of history is gone. I upgrade my phone every year and this has never been an issue before. But now it’s all gone. I’m not going to use this app anymore if I have to start all over.

Please stop the loud ads

The app works fine. Very helpful. But the ads blare out.l s p

Good app

Great app

This is a great app that allows me to keep track of my gut health. I love that I can look at all my past tracking and review how I am doing. I do wish you could personalize it a little bit. Also a calendar that also may show your past logging. Even though it is a good app I think a little flare may make it a little bit more fun.
I have had other apps that help with keeping track of your gut health. They always had ways to also keep track of your moments you also go #1 as well. With advice as well on how to keep your times visiting the bathroom a lot better.
Overall a really great app just it would be nice to see some other things added as well. To personalize it just a little. Adding a calendar, #1 tracking as well also maybe adding some way of identifying how your bathroom business could be affecting your health. Maybe also adding some articles of food and drink advice to health keep a healthy gut as well.
I purchased the app to unlock all the benefits of the app thinking it will unlock much more. I again find the app really great it just would be nice to have just a little more for what your getting. Overall again a good app it helps me out.

Love this app

I’ve been using this app for over 5 years to track my IBS symptoms. I love that I can log a BM in less than 10 seconds. Some other apps are too visually busy, or ask too many details; I find them difficult to use. Sometimes I can’t remember the last time I visited the bathroom, so this has been a helpful tool. I also appreciate the reminders, even though the content of the reminder could be a bit more discreet. My doctor is always impressed with my BM log’s organization.

Add delete all

Easy and simple to use with appropriate and relevant options. A shame they added ads. One suggestion would be to add a “clear all” option to make it easier to track certain time frames such as a calendar year.

Map??

Can you please add a feature with a map and location tagging?

Great App - Could be Better

Great app, I think it can use a redesign to make the application a bit more modern and add some trending information such as day, week, and month instead of just a list of all the entries.

If both these changes were made I’d consider contributing to the paid version to remove the Ads.

Other than that does what it needs to and having the widget available is a bonus that I do appreciate.

1 record per day?

How do i record more than one movement in a day?

Review

I think is really great but there should be an option to share with friends. It should obviously optional :)

Brilliant for IBS sufferers

Just happen to see this whilst looking for something else and as crude as it looks i wish I had found this when my IBS was in full flow so I could report it On my 11pro Max
Few bagels Bugs in the first month but seems to be running ok now.Developer very communicative thanks it helps .

Don’t get the Free Version it’s Crap, Full of automatic downloads..Pay for it, it’s Fantastic

upgraded pro model is fantastic however the free version is crap :-) Full of automatic downloads, Tracking... Don’t Get the Free Version Pay for the Full it’s Great!

Show the exact time

It's a nice app, is it available to show the exact time on the first page, not just "afternoon" "morning "

Ads

This is a great app, but it would be so much better if the ads wouldn’t pop up every moment you go on there.
