Pausa
Read full descriptionHide full description
How many hot flashes this week? How did you sleep, and how was your mood? You don't have to remember. When a hot flash hits, one tap is enough, and Pausa shows you how your week went, all in one place. Menopause and the years before it are hard to keep track of in your head. What you write stays with you. No sign-up: we don't ask for an email or a password. No ads, and your information is never sold. Your notes stay on your phone and go nowhere unless you send them. We can't see them either. Note it in seconds. When a hot flash comes, one tap is enough: in the app, from the Lock Screen, on Apple Watch or by asking Siri. You can also add your sleep, your mood, what happened that day and, if you take hormone medication, the days you took it. Connect Apple Health if you like, and things like your night-time body temperature fill in on their own. It starts with you. The first time you open Pausa, we ask what bothers you most and which stage you're in. Your picks sit at the top of your home screen, and we skip questions that don't fit you. A short summary every week. At the end of the week you see how your hot flashes, sleep and mood went. We also compare it with what you told us at the start: "At the start you said about 5 a day; this week you averaged 3." Pausa points out links you might want to notice, in plain sentences, such as more hot flashes the day after a poor night. They're there to help you notice, never a diagnosis. Go to your doctor prepared. Turn weeks of notes into a tidy summary to show your doctor. Instead of "I just don't feel right", you have the real picture in your hand. What's free and what's Premium. Notes, reminders, the weekly summary and asking about your notes in Assistant are always free: questions like "How many hot flashes did I have this week?" are answered from your own notes, and answers to general questions are based on sources such as The Menopause Society, NICE and ACOG. Premium adds: • A tidy summary to show your doctor • Seeing what changed after your medication changed • Asking anything in your own words and getting a written answer • A short write-up of your week Open-ended questions and the weekly write-up work on iPhones that support Apple Intelligence. If you're new to Premium, it's free for 14 days on the yearly plan and 7 days on the monthly plan. We remind you 2 days before the trial ends; cancel before then and you pay nothing. The price is shown clearly on the payment screen. Pausa is a helper to get to know your body better. It isn't a medical device; it doesn't diagnose or suggest treatment. If something doesn't go away or worries you, talk to your doctor. Privacy: https://www.mehmetsisoglu.com/pausa/legal#privacy-en Terms of use: https://www.mehmetsisoglu.com/pausa/legal#eula-en

Pausely is the private menopause tracker built around the one thing other apps make impossible: logging a hot flash the moment it happens, in a single tap. ONE-TAP HOT FLASH LOGGING Hot flashes hit many times a day, at the worst times. Tap once to log each one, with the time captured automatically. See how many you have had today on a simple timeline, and watch the real pattern build, including how many strike at night. ALL 34 PERIMENOPAUSE SYMPTOMS From night sweats and brain fog to joint pain, anxiety, and the symptoms no one warns you about. Tap what you feel, set the severity, and Pausely quietly builds your picture over weeks. SEE YOUR PATTERN, READY FOR YOUR DOCTOR Clear trends over 30 and 90 days, and a doctor-visit summary that turns months of tracking into real data for your appointment instead of vague recollection. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. No ads, no tracking, no cloud. Your symptoms are stored only on your device, and nothing is ever uploaded. Pausely is a tracking tool, not medical advice or a diagnosis. Talk to your doctor or a menopause specialist about treatment.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pausely at none against Pausa's 2. Pausely also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 18.0). Pausa's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs fortnightly). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
