Feeling overwhelmed by your health? Bearable is the symptom tracker that helps you work out what makes your symptoms, pain, migraine and mental health better or worse, so you can feel more in control. Join over 2M patients & doctors using Bearable to manage symptoms, pain, migraine, mood, medication and mental health. FIND YOUR TRIGGERS Most people arrive with one question: what is making my symptoms worse? Log how you feel in a few taps a day, and Bearable shows the correlations between your symptoms and your sleep, food, weather, stress, medication and habits, so you know which triggers to avoid. NOT SURE WHERE TO START? No diagnosis or plan needed. Rate how you feel, add a symptom or two, and Bearable suggests what to log next as your symptom diary grows. PAIN, MIGRAINE AND HEADACHE TRACKER Record pain levels, where the pain is and how long it lasts. Log migraine frequency and severity, spot the warning signs before a migraine attack, see which migraine treatments help, and learn which triggers reliably set off your headaches. The pain tracker is used every day by people managing chronic pain, migraine, arthritis, fibromyalgia, endometriosis, joint pain and back pain. MENTAL HEALTH AND MOOD TRACKER See whether your mental health is changing over time, not just how today feels. Log mood, energy, stress, sleep and anxiety alongside what is going on in your life, and see how work, exercise, social plans and the weather shape your mental health. The mental health tracker is used by people living with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, ADHD and OCD, and by anyone wanting a clearer picture of their mental health. CHRONIC ILLNESS, FATIGUE AND FLARE-UPS Log flare-ups, pain, crashes and good days to see what leads to each. Work out which activities drain you or give you energy, and give your doctor a clear record of how your chronic illness has changed. Built with people living with PoTS, EDS, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS and long covid. GUT, HORMONES AND CYCLE Log digestive symptoms, food and bathroom habits to find out which foods are behind your IBS or GERD flare-ups. See how your symptoms, pain, migraine and mood change across each phase of your cycle, useful for PCOS, PMDD, endometriosis and menstrual migraine. MEDICATION AND TREATMENTS Log medication, supplements and treatments, then see whether they are working for your pain, migraine or mental health and whether they cause side effects. The medication tracker also sets reminders so you never miss a dose or a diary entry. EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE Symptoms, pain, migraine, mood, medication, exercise and diet in one health tracker, so you can find useful patterns instead of switching between apps. - Fully customisable: record exactly what matters to you - Insights that show what correlates with your symptoms - Reports that turn months of symptom, pain and mental health logs into actionable insights - Sync steps, sleep and heart rate from Apple Health and Fitbit - Reminders, secure export, restore across devices, dark mode PRIVATE AND SECURE Your health data is encrypted.

About

Amara

Read full description

Menopause is a season, not the end of your story. Amara is a daily companion for Christian women going through perimenopause and menopause. It meets you each morning with a short check-in, gives you a verse for where you are, and stays with you on the nights you can't sleep. THE PASSAGE Your journey is shown as five stages, each one guided by a woman of the Bible: Sarah, Naomi, Hannah, Elizabeth and Anna. The stages follow your periods, and a simple counter tracks the 12 months without a period that mark the crossing. No false promises, just an honest map of where you are. EVERY DAY IN YOUR PROGRAM - Morning check-in: one minute to note how you slept, the heat, and how your head feels - A verse for your stage, chosen for this season of your life - Night pages: quiet words and Scripture for when you're awake at night - Your mosaic: each morning you show up lays a new tile - For your husband: a page that helps him understand and support you Sarah laughed when she heard she would carry new life late in her years. Naomi asked to be called bitter. Hannah prayed through her tears. Their stories show the way through, and you are not walking it alone. Amara does not give medical advice. Talk to your doctor about your symptoms and treatment. SUBSCRIPTION Amara offers auto-renewable subscriptions: yearly with a 7-day free trial, or monthly.
