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

AIP Diet Tracker

Features
Read full description

Calm is a tracker for the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP), the elimination and reintroduction diet. A sourced food guide, a 20-second daily check-in and every food challenge in one place, and your progress drawn as a gut on a night sky: every food you win back becomes a star. DRAW MY GUT Answer a few short questions and Calm draws your gut and shows how many foods each stage holds for you. No account needed. IS IT AIP? A GUIDE WITH ITS SOURCES - 243 foods, each with its status during elimination, its reintroduction stage and its source, quoted word for word: Sarah Ballantyne's published stages (2021), Autoimmune Wellness, Mickey Trescott, NIDDK - Where the sources disagree, Calm shows who says what - Paste an ingredient list to see what is out, what comes back at which stage and what Calm doesn't know - With celiac disease, gluten grains are never offered for reintroduction (NIDDK) - A word Calm doesn't know is "not checked", never "AIP" A 20-SECOND CHECK-IN - How you feel, the areas you track and what you ate in plain words, checked as you type - Sleep, stress, Bristol scale, exercise and notes when you want them - Edit, delete or fill in any past day REINTRODUCTION, ONE FOOD AT A TIME - The challenge day as Ballantyne publishes it: half a teaspoon, a teaspoon, a teaspoon and a half, then a normal portion, with a timer for every wait and a Live Activity on the Lock Screen - Then 5 to 7 days without that food and nothing new, with an evening reminder to check in - No symptoms: the food is back and lands as a star on your gut. Any symptom: "not now", with a date to try again at least six months later. A reaction is never filed as safe. FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT A PDF visit report in date order, up to 12 weeks: each area week by week, the foods back, every reaction with its timing, your medications. Page 1 is always included; the full report adds weekly charts, every challenge's times and the diary. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS - Your log stays on your iPhone and is never stored on our servers. - Export everything as CSV at any time - No account, no ads, no tracking ALSO Widgets for the Home Screen and Lock Screen, Siri and Shortcuts, a shareable picture of your sky (nothing about your health on it unless you add it), and the app in English, German, Spanish, Dutch, Polish and Swedish. INCLUDED WITHOUT CALM PRO The check-in, the whole guide, the label check, Stage 1 challenges, your sky, 2-week trends, page 1 of the report, the export, widgets. CALM PRO - Challenges at Stages 2 to 4, and foods of your own - Patterns: what your own log shows in the 72 hours after each food, how often and how sure. Patterns describe your log; they never show that a food is the reason for a change. - Trends over 12 weeks and the full visit report - The AI AIP guide: your question goes to xAI (Grok) through our server only after you allow it Calm Pro is a monthly or yearly subscription, or a one-time purchase; prices in your currency are shown in the app. Payment is charged to your Apple Account. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage or cancel them in your App Store account settings. The guide is general information from the named sources, not medical advice, and naming a source does not mean it endorses Calm. Calm does not diagnose or treat any condition. Talk to your doctor or a registered dietitian before starting an elimination diet or changing what you eat.
