Great Start

I’m newly diagnosed and really bad at taking medication or tracking anything. I love that this gives me daily tips and a reminder to check in. I really like the journal. I’ve begun tracking how I feel each morning and what my previous day looked like to help me identify triggers and patterns. There are a few upgrades that would make it perfect, but as is it’s better than the pay to use apps I’ve found and I really appreciate having a useful tool that doesn’t require me to pay to feel better.

No way to track temperature

The app is free and seems easy to use. However I was specifically looking for a way to track my temperature. It is not a symptom that can be tracked. Fever is a symptom on the diagnostic criteria for lupus so it seems like a big oversight to not include it. If that was added it would be perfect.
