Ulcerative Colitis Tracker vs IBD Aide

Even a small child can calculate their pucai score while also recording vitals, foods eaten, medications taken and more. Comprehensive symptom tracking for better disease management that can be shared with your doctor.

Living with Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, or IBD-unclassified means tracking a lot: symptoms, flares, foods, medications, infusions, and appointments. IBD Aide puts all of it in one private place — designed so logging takes seconds, not minutes. IBD Aide was created by Trisha Samanpure with one goal: to give the IBD community the companion it deserves — fast, clinically grounded, and truly private. TRACK IN SECONDS • Bristol Stool Chart quick-tap, pain, urgency, fatigue, weight, sleep, and mood • Automatic daily activity score (modified Harvey-Bradshaw Index for Crohn's, SCCAI for UC) to discuss with your care team • Trends and charts that surface possible flare patterns and food-symptom correlations CHECK FOODS BEFORE YOU EAT • Scan a barcode to check packaged foods against ingredient guidance compiled from the Crohn's & Colitis Foundation and IOIBD dietary recommendations • Point your camera at a dish — on-device intelligence estimates likely ingredients and flags common IBD triggers • Look up any food, dish, or ingredient in the built-in guide, plus your own personal trigger list • Flare mode applies stricter rules when you need them STAY ON TOP OF TREATMENT • Medications and biologics with reminders, adherence streaks, and refill alerts • Doctor visits, labs, and recurring IV infusion appointments with reminders and a colonoscopy prep checklist • Capture questions for your next visit the moment you think of them • Your care team's contacts, addresses, and portals in one place SHARE WITH YOUR DOCTOR — ON YOUR TERMS • Generate a clean PDF summary of symptoms, scores, adherence, triggers, and your visit questions • Share it yourself by email or text — the app never transmits your health data MORE HELP DAY TO DAY • Public restroom finder for when urgency strikes • Curated news on IBD treatment advancements • Two-week quality-of-life check-ins PRIVATE BY DESIGN • All health data stays on your iPhone, encrypted at rest — no accounts, no cloud database, no analytics, no ads, ever • Face ID / Touch ID app lock; notifications never show health details • Data survives phone upgrades through your encrypted device backup, plus passphrase-protected export • Free. Completely. IMPORTANT: IBD Aide is a tracking tool, not a medical device. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Food results are informational estimates and can be wrong or incomplete — tolerance varies from person to person. Always consult your healthcare team before changing diet, medication, or treatment. If you have severe symptoms, seek medical care immediately.
