Olara, your gentle companion for IBS Built by Zak Edmundson, a UK-qualified nutritionist who specialises in IBS. Olara helps you navigate the lower FODMAP approach with warmth, not jargon. No spreadsheets, no clinical lectures. Just a thoughtful companion in your pocket, every day. What's inside • 65 lower FODMAP recipes, designed for real life, scaled to your servings, with a shopping basket that organises everything for you. • Snap a meal, menu, or label. Point your camera, and Olara reads ingredients, estimates portions, and tells you what is likely to suit you. • My Gut. Track your gut score, sleep, and stress in seconds a day. Olara learns your patterns and surfaces what is working. • Trigger profile. Six FODMAP groups, your personal thresholds, built up as you log. • Reintroduction guide. A six-week protocol to find your own limits, paced gently with check-ins from Zak. Who it's for Olara is for adults living with IBS and gut sensitivities.

YOUR PERMISSIONS, SORTED Getting permission is the hardest part of detecting, and keeping it is harder still. FieldFinders makes it simple. Track every landowner agreement and renewal date in one place. Create and download a permission agreement in minutes. Generate a tidy season report for each landowner that shows your finds and the care you took on their land, the best way to keep a permission and earn the next one. THE UK'S BEST AND LEADING DETECTING AND ARCHAEOLOGY TOOLS FieldFinders brings together the finest detecting and archaeology tools in the country, in one app. Less time guessing, more time finding. THE ATLAS, YOUR LANDSCAPE MAP See any field in layers. Switch between crisp satellite imagery, sub metre LiDAR that strips away the grass to reveal old banks, ditches and trackways, Victorian Ordnance Survey maps, and bedrock geology. Tap any spot for an instant read on its history and potential, drawn from heritage records and the lie of the land. EXPERT TOOLS, BUILT FOR DETECTORISTS Recce scores a field before you set off, so you walk the best ground first. Find ID names, dates and classes an object from a photo, cross referenced against more than 1.6 million recorded UK finds. Counsel answers your questions on coins, history, the law and ground conditions, with real sources. Valuation gives a sensible market range for a find. Curator reads a photo and gives a safe, museum aligned cleaning plan, because the wrong clean ruins a good find. Tuner builds a settings profile for your exact machine, soil and target. Ground conditions, Best days and Beach tell you when and where the digging will be good. OUT IN THE FIELD Start a dig and FieldFinders records your walked path live with GPS, even with the screen locked, so you can see exactly where you have swept. Log every find privately with its location and photos. It is your detecting diary, your evidence for the Finds Liaison Officer, and your proof of provenance, all in one place. RESPECT THE HOBBY FieldFinders points you to your legal duties under the Treasure Act and your FLO reporting. Always get the landowner's permission and never detect on a scheduled monument. FREE TO START Use the Atlas, record your digs and try the tools for free every month.
