About

Patternwise

Features
Read full description

Patternwise is a calm, private journal for noticing your own health patterns. Track migraine, reflux, sleep, food, stress and the weather around you โ€” all in one place โ€” and see how they line up over time. Most trackers follow a single condition. Patternwise is built to hold several at once, so you can spot connections a one-condition app would miss โ€” like how a short night's sleep or a skipped meal tends to show up around a flare. WHAT YOU CAN DO โ€ข Log a symptom in seconds โ€” what, how intense, done. Add detail only if you want to. โ€ข Track food, drinks and lifestyle factors (sleep, stress, exercise, and your own custom ones). โ€ข Track for yourself or someone you care for, with separate private profiles. โ€ข See gentle, honest insights โ€” a calendar and frequency view, plus a look-back at what you logged in the hours around an entry (for context, never as a cause). โ€ข Auto-capture weather and pressure, and โ€” with your permission โ€” last night's sleep, so there's less to type. โ€ข Export a clean summary or CSV to keep, or to share with your doctor. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you log stays on your device, encrypted. There's no account, no sign-up, and nothing is sent to a server. Optional AI summaries run entirely on your device. A NOTE ON WHAT THIS IS Patternwise is a wellness journal, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, or predict any condition. For anything health-related, talk with your doctor.
