All tracking features are free. Log your child's temperature, symptoms, and medication doses in one place, see when the next dose is due, and get dose guidance by your child's weight (always check the label or your pediatrician). Every fever episode becomes a timeline you can look back on, for each child in one account. No thermometer at hand? Answer three questions (playing, eating, sleeping) and see the emergency signs to watch for on the same screen; with Premium, FeverCoach suggests a next step by your child's age. Red-flag warnings stay on screen while you log symptoms, so you know when to call your pediatrician. Ask the AI coach about your child's fever any time; answers draw on 2,400+ physician-reviewed Q&As. English and Spanish. Your child's health records are stored separately from your account details. FeverCoach does not measure temperature and does not diagnose. It helps you keep a clear record and decide when to call your doctor. Premium adds AI insights on your child's fever, a comparison with what's typical for children the same age, and a PDF summary of the fever episode for your child's doctor. Share your child's records with other caregivers at no extra charge. End-User License Agreement (EULA): https://www.modoc-ai.com/terms-of-use
