Since the day that Olivia, our founder, first started to experience symptoms from what we later found was a tick bite, we have been on a journey of constant conversations with countless healthcare providers. Today everyone wants to better understand what symptoms she had, when they started, what it's like now, how severe are they, etc. We embarked on a journey of creating an app solely focused on logging and tracking Tick-borne Disease (TBD) symptoms to help all those effected by TBDs, but while we were creating the App, the world was hit with a global pandemic, and immediately the first thing everyone was focused on was "What are the Symptoms?". We then evolved our thinking and ended up coming to the conclusion that patients are suffering every day with various diseases, ranging from rare diseases to wide-spread diseases. The one thing they have in common is the journey of cataloging their symptoms over time in an effort to communicate those symptoms to their healthcare and caregivers ultimately to 'get better'. Olivia has been a 'longhauler' for years, as have many in the TBD space, which many have a hard time understanding. Now the term 'longhauler' has become more popular since the onset of the pandemic in 2020. Our hope with providing this free app is to assist everyone experiencing longhaul/chronic symptoms with their ongoing conversations with their healthcare providers and their personal support systems. We at the LivLyme Foundation, truly believe you when you say, these are the symptoms I'm experiencing and have experienced for months/years. Our belief is that through sharing and data that we can make your world, our world, a healthier and happier place.

You're exhausted, you're not imagining things, and you deserve answers — SymptomScape helps you track the patterns your body already knows. Living with a chronic or hard-to-diagnose condition means carrying a mental load no one else sees. SymptomScape lightens that load with a few gentle minutes a day, turning your check-ins into clarity you can actually use — and actually show your doctor. Daily check-ins, your way. Do a quick pulse when you're running on empty, or a full check-in covering symptoms, mood, energy, sleep, meds, food, and activity when you have more to give. There's no wrong way to show up. AI Discoveries. Our AI quietly looks for hidden connections between your symptoms and daily life — foods, sleep, weather, stress — so you don't have to hold it all in your head. Trend reports and doctor-ready summaries. Every chart is built entirely from your real check-in data, so you can walk into appointments prepared, confident, and finally able to say more than "I've just been feeling off." Your day, at a glance. A simple timeline brings together symptoms, meals, meds, and events so patterns become visible instead of overwhelming. Cycle tracking, Apple Health sync, and Today's Health Outlook. See how your cycle interacts with your symptoms, sync steps, sleep, and activity from Apple Health, and check local weather, pressure, pollen, and air quality that may be affecting how you feel today. You're not alone in this. Supportive community spaces, gentle streaks, and soft daily reminders help you stay consistent without pressure or guilt. SymptomScape offers a Premium subscription (monthly $4.99 or annual $45) with a 7-day free trial, so you can experience the full picture before committing. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled. You already carry enough. Let SymptomScape help you carry the data. Download SymptomScape today and start turning your experience into evidence.
