Flare is a radically simple diary for your food and how you feel. Type what you ate, tap how you feel, and over time see the patterns connecting the two. Most food diaries drown you in calorie counts, barcode scanners, and endless databases. Flare strips it back to what actually matters: what did I eat, and how do I feel? LOG IN SECONDS - Free-text food entry. Just type "chicken pasta with garlic bread." No databases, no barcodes, no portion math. - Smart suggestions learn your foods, so logging gets faster every day. - Quick-tap symptoms: bloated, gassy, crampy, nauseous, heartburn, fatigue, brain fog, and more. - Add energy, mood, and a quick note when you want to. SEE THE TIMELINE - Food and feelings on one clean, scrollable timeline. - Spot the gap between that late dinner and how you felt two hours later. FIND YOUR PATTERNS (Flare+) - After a couple of weeks of logging, Flare highlights connections, like which foods tend to show up before certain symptoms. - Weekly digest of what you ate and how you felt. - Export your log as a PDF or CSV to bring to an appointment. PRIVATE BY DESIGN - No account required, ever. - Your diary is stored on your device. iCloud sync is optional and only starts when you choose it. - Optional iCloud sync, stored in your private iCloud database. - Optional Face ID / Touch ID app lock. - One tap to delete everything. MORE - Apple Health: optionally bring in sleep, activity, and hydration to view alongside your symptoms. - Custom symptoms beyond the built-in grid (Flare+). - Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets to log and track your streak. Flare is a personal diary and pattern-finding tool. It helps you notice trends in your own logs, and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified health professional.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MakeID at none against Flare's 2. MakeID also leads on iOS requirement (10.0 vs 26.0). Flare's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
