Read full descriptionHide full description
Needled is the beautifully simple injection tracker for people on weight loss medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro, Wegovy, and Zepbound. Log your injections, track your weight, and always know how many doses are left in your pen - all in under 10 seconds. Free to download. Free to use. No meal plans. No calorie counting. No clinical jargon. Just the three things that actually matter on injection day. LOG INJECTIONS IN SECONDS Tap, confirm the date, done. Needled records your injection and updates your pen counter automatically. Set your schedule - weekly, twice weekly, or whatever works for you - and get a gentle reminder when it's time. On injection days, your dashboard shows a quick-log banner so you never forget. TRACK YOUR WEIGHT WITH CONTEXT Log your weight with quick-adjust buttons or slide to the exact number. Every entry can carry an optional label - like your current dose strength or a personal note - that shows up as a coloured phase marker on your progress chart. See exactly how dosage changes line up with your weight loss over time. KNOW YOUR PEN INSIDE OUT Tell Needled how many doses are in your pen and which dose you're up to. The app counts down for you and celebrates when you finish a pen with a summary of your progress: doses used, days on pen, and weight change. Got extra doses? Just keep logging. Need to match your specific dose count? You choose - 1 through 10. SEE YOUR PROGRESS CLEARLY A dedicated progress screen shows your weight trend over 1 month, 3 months, 6 months, or all time - with coloured phase markers showing your dosage labels. Below the chart: total injections, pens completed, average days between injections, and your current streak. PHOTO JOURNAL (PRO) Take progress photos and compare them side by side. Categorise by pose (front, side, back) and browse your transformation over time. Photos are protected behind Face ID or fingerprint - your journey stays private. CUSTOM METRICS (PRO) Track anything alongside your weight - waist measurement, blood sugar, body fat percentage. Create custom metrics that appear right on your dashboard. SMART REMINDERS Choose your injection days and set a reminder time. Needled sends a notification when it's time. Set separate reminders to log your weight too. MEET PIP Pip is your friendly teal companion who lives throughout the app. Pip celebrates your milestones, encourages you on injection day, and makes the whole experience feel warm - not clinical. WORKS FOR ANY INJECTION PEN While our community primarily uses weight loss medications like Ozempic (semaglutide), Mounjaro (tirzepatide), Wegovy, and Zepbound, Needled works for anyone who self-injects - insulin, B12, testosterone, Saxenda, and more. You configure your pen, your schedule, your doses. SET UP IN UNDER 2 MINUTES Tell us how many doses are in your pen, which days you inject, and your starting weight. That's it.

FREE FEATURES - everything you need, always free - Injection logging with full history - Weight tracking with trend charts - Pen dose management and pen history - Injection day reminders - Dosage phase labels on charts - Dark mode, light mode, and system theme - kg, lbs, or stones and lbs NEEDLED PRO - optional extras for those who want more - Photo journal with before and after comparison - Custom metrics (waist, blood sugar, and more) - 7-day free trial, then a simple monthly or annual subscription Needled is a personal tracking tool, not a medical device.

Piri is a private peptide tracker for iPhone. Log doses, cycles and injection sites in seconds, follow a protocol without counting days in your head, and keep a history you can actually search. No account. No cloud. Nothing leaves your phone. Forgot to log yesterday? Backdate it. Any entry can be edited or deleted afterwards, so a missed log is never a permanent hole in your record. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Log a dose in seconds — compound, amount, injection site and time • Record injection sites from a fixed list, left and right kept separate, so your history stays countable • See where your doses have actually gone, ranked by site, with how long since you last used each one • Follow a cycle-based schedule and see where you are at a glance ("Cycle 2 · Day 18") • Run more than one protocol at the same time • Backdate or edit any entry, however long after the fact • Check in daily on how you feel, with notes in your own words • Watch weekly trends, so day-to-day noise turns into something you can actually read • Sync body weight from Apple Health, or type it — you get the trend either way • Search your full history, however far back it goes • Get one daily reminder at a time you choose, and nothing else • Export a CSV or generate a full PDF report, built right on your device PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your data never leaves your device — there is no account and no cloud sync • Face ID / Touch ID and a PIN, with the database encrypted at rest • A recovery code you keep, so a forgotten PIN doesn't mean a lost journal • Back up to a file you control, and restore it on a new phone • Apple Health sync is optional, covers body weight only, and can be revoked any time • The only thing that ever leaves your phone is what's required for purchases, licensing, and app updates BUILT TO BE SIMPLE No spreadsheets. No logins. No feeds, streak-shaming, or clutter. Just a calm, fast place to keep your routine straight and look back honestly. Piri is free to try. One purchase unlocks everything, forever — no subscription. IMPORTANT Piri is a personal journaling and organization tool only. It does not provide medical advice, diagnose conditions, recommend treatments, prescribe medications, or supply any substances. It never suggests, calculates, or changes an amount — you record what you decide. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before making healthcare decisions.

The clearest difference is update cadence: Piri at every 2 days against Needled's weekly. On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
