Say how you feel. It's logged. Symptom Log is a symptom diary for bad days. Hold the button, say what's going on — "headache behind my left eye since lunch, took ibuprofen" — and let go. Your words land on a timeline, transcribed on your phone. No forms. No sliders. No chatbot. ONE TAP A DAY Pick the color of your day: clear, fair, hazy, cloudy or stormy. Days logged keep adding up, even when you skip a few. BAD DAYS, IN YOUR OWN WORDS • Hold and talk whenever something changes • Every note lands on one timeline, with the time • What you tried — meds, rest, ice, a dark room — is kept apart • Name your own symptoms in your own words ONE PAGE FOR YOUR DOCTOR Before an appointment, get the last 30 days on one page: what came up most, your longest stretch, what you tried and the questions you want to ask. Save it as a PDF, print it or email it. YOUR YEAR, IN COLOR Every day becomes one square. Share your year in color or a 100-days card: just colors — no words, no dates, nothing private. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your voice is transcribed on your phone and never stored • Your notes stay on your device • No ads, and no health data shared with advertisers Symptom Log is a personal journal. It does not diagnose, treat or give medical advice. Talk to a qualified health professional about your health. SYMPTOM LOG PRO Unlimited voice notes, the one-page PDF, monthly and milestone cards, and air pressure next to your timeline. The free plan keeps daily colors and 3 voice notes a week. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your App Store account settings.
