Track injections, log protein, monitor side effects, and stay on schedule β€” all in one place. WHAT MAKES EMBER DIFFERENT Most GLP-1 apps track your shots. Ember tracks what those shots are doing to your body. With semaglutide and tirzepatide, up to 25% of what you lose can be muscle.

FOOD NOISE TRACKING (PREMIUM) Score your daily food noise β€” those intrusive food thoughts β€” on a 0–10 scale. See 30-day trends in Insights and include it in your Doctor Report. Unique to Ember. HORMONES & CYCLE Track HRT, hot flushes, menstrual cycles (opt-in), and GLP-1-specific hormonal changes β€” features no other GLP-1 tracker offers. Useful for anyone on GLP-1 or TRT. BUILT FOR YOUR MEDICATION Supports Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Rybelsus, Saxenda, Victoza, and compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide.
