POTS symptoms can be hard to recall between appointments. If you live with postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome, use this POTS buddy to keep daily notes for your care team. Record heart rate, medications, and what you felt in one place. Keep those details together instead of spreading them across spreadsheets, messy notebooks, or fragmented health apps. It’s time for an easier, smarter, and personalized way to track your health journey. Meet POTS Tracker, the comprehensive health monitor designed specifically for people battling chronic illness, fatigue, tachycardia, and dysautonomia. Whether you are navigating orthostatic symptoms, chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS), or long COVID-related symptoms, you can keep the details together. Whether you call yourself a potsie or simply live with POTS, record what matters to you each day. Use this dysautonomia tracker to record symptoms, heart rate, blood pressure (BP), mood, medications, salt intake, and exercise. Sync daily health data with Apple Health. Why use this POTS app? Log symptoms in seconds. Record tachycardia episodes, dizziness, fatigue, and orthostatic changes. Medication reminders help you remember what to log. If your routine includes midodrine, metoprolol or propranolol, note those names alongside daily symptoms. Heart rate and vitals: connect with Apple Health and wearable devices such as Apple Watch to review HRV, ECG, VO2 levels, and daily fitness. Tailored health journal: use a POTS symptom log to note mood, dietary salt (sodium) intake, or triggers, pacing, and symptom patterns over time. Visible progress and detailed insights: review daily logs before your next doctor’s visit. If ivabradine or fludrocortisone is part of your own medication record, keep those notes with your symptoms and vital readings. Comprehensive wellness tracking: record fitness, mood, exercise tolerance, and hydration alongside symptoms. Customizable alerts remind you to track key vitals and symptoms. Designed with you in mind: Busy Professionals: No time? No problem. POTS Tracker makes daily symptom tracking quicker and more bearable.
