Love your coffee. Keep your nights. You don't have to choose between the coffee you love and the sleep you need. CaffIQ shows you how today's coffee, tea, and energy drinks turn into tonight's sleep — and exactly how late you can still enjoy your next cup, tuned to your own body. It was never the coffee. It's the timing. WHAT MAKES CAFFIQ DIFFERENT → Tuned to YOUR body Most caffeine apps use one-size-fits-all averages. CaffIQ adapts to your weight, age, and sensitivity for predictions that reflect how caffeine actually clears in your system. → See your last cup, before you pour it A real-time readiness score tells you how late you can still enjoy a coffee and protect tonight's rest. No guesswork. No 2 a.m. ceiling-staring. → Track in real time, everywhere Live Activities show your current caffeine level on the Dynamic Island and Lock Screen. Glance at Home Screen widgets. Ask Siri "When can I sleep?" — get an instant answer. WHAT YOU GET - Real-time caffeine modeling, personalized to your profile - Your personal "last cup" time to protect sleep - Live Activities (Dynamic Island + Lock Screen) - Home Screen & Lock Screen widgets - Siri Shortcuts for hands-free logging - Quick-add for coffee, espresso, tea, matcha, energy drinks, soda & more - Specialty-friendly: log single-origin, decaf, cold brew - Daily, weekly & monthly insights - Streaks and milestones - Apple Health sync (caffeine + sleep) - 5.5 MB — barely any space GROUNDED IN RESEARCH CaffIQ's timing is informed by peer-reviewed sleep science — translated into clear, everyday guidance (no PhD required). Caffeine's half-life varies widely from person to person, so a generic "stop at 2 p.m." rule rarely fits. CaffIQ does the math for you. MADE FOR → Coffee lovers who don't want to give it up — just understand their cup → Busy people who want to perform by day and sleep at night → Anyone who feels wired or jittery and wants to stay in control → People keeping caffeine under a personal limit, tuned to their body → Anyone who's ever lain awake wondering "was it the afternoon latte?"

SymptomLog is a private daily diary for one person living with one long-term condition. Log how the day actually went in under a minute, then show your doctor a record instead of trying to remember. At setup you choose your condition — migraine, IBS and gut health, autoimmune, fibromyalgia, chronic pain, endometriosis, allergies, mental health, or something else — and your starting symptom list is built around it. WHAT ONE DAY LOOKS LIKE Tap the quick-log card on the home screen. Pick one of five moods, from Terrible to Great. Slide each symptom you track from 0 to 10. Tap anything that may have played a part: poor sleep, stress, weather change, a certain food, alcohol, exercise, a missed dose, menstrual cycle, dehydration, overexertion, travel, illness. Add a note if you want one, then save. That's the whole thing. The home screen shows your logging streak, your total days logged, and a week-at-a-glance strip, so you can see which days you missed and go back and fill them in. An optional reminder at a time you choose nudges you once a day. IT STAYS ON YOUR PHONE There's no account, no sign-up and no cloud sync. Your entries are stored on this device — no copy sits on a server, and nobody else can open your log. PREMIUM: TURN THE LOG INTO AN ANSWER • See the shape of it — trend lines, a severity breakdown, a calendar heatmap and your mood distribution across 7, 30 or 90 days. • Check your triggers — a frequency chart showing which triggers you tapped most over the period you chose. • Hand your doctor something readable — a full Doctor Report as a PDF, a single-symptom report, or a side-by-side comparison of two date ranges. • Keep the raw numbers — export everything as a CSV file. • Track what you actually have — add, remove and reorder your own symptoms. • Look back a full year instead of 30 days. You get a few minutes with your doctor. Spend them on the conversation, not on reconstructing the last three months out loud. GETTING STARTED Setup takes about a minute: choose your condition, choose the symptoms you want to start with, set a reminder if you'd like one. Daily logging and the last 30 days of history are included at no cost. Premium is available weekly or yearly, or as a one-time Lifetime purchase, whenever the charts and reports are worth it to you. The weekly and yearly plans are auto-renewing subscriptions, charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase and renewing unless canceled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel anytime in your account settings. A trial is offered on a plan only when your account is eligible for one. Lifetime is a single purchase with no recurring charge. Current prices are shown on the plan screen in your local currency.
