Epilepsy Care

Read full description

Epilepsy Care is a simple, private tracker for everything that matters when caring for someone with epilepsy, and built by a parent whose child has epilepsy, because a spreadsheet wasn't enough and no existing app did quite what was needed. Everything stays on your device. There's no account and no sign-up; open the app and start. It works fully offline. Log seizures in seconds. Record date, time, duration and type, plus optional details your neurologist cares about: whether it happened during sleep, in hot weather, while sick or very tired, whether emergency medication was needed, severity, and post-seizure (post-ictal) recovery. Add notes or attach a video. Browse everything in a list or a calendar. Stay on top of medication. Keep a list of current and past medications with doses, and get reminders so doses aren't missed. Appointments & documents Track neurology appointments with reminders, and keep referral letters, lab results and other documents in one place. Reports for your neurologist See seizure frequency, type breakdown, days-between-seizures trends and medication effectiveness. Generate a detailed clinical report as a PDF to share at appointments, created entirely on your device. A calmer moment during a seizure An optional responsiveness check helps you stay calm and systematic. (It is a caregiver aid, not a medical assessment.) Built for families Track more than one child or family member. Available in English, Dutch, French, German and Spanish. Protect the app with a PIN or Face ID / fingerprint. Back up and restore all your data to a file whenever you like. Free The app is completely free, with every feature included: no ads, no account, nothing locked away. --- Epilepsy Care is a personal tracking tool, not a medical device. Nothing in the app is medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. Reports and summaries are aids for conversations with your healthcare team - always follow their guidance, and call emergency services in an emergency. Your ideas are welcome This app is built by one parent and keeps getting better thanks to feedback. If you have an idea that could improve it, don't hesitate to reach out.

Seizure Record is a comprehensive epilepsy management app designed for people living with epilepsy and their caregivers. Track every seizure, monitor medications, identify patterns, and build a detailed health history that supports better conversations with your neurologist. RECORD EVERY SEIZURE Capture complete information for each event, including seizure type, severity, duration (using a built-in stopwatch or manual entry), aura symptoms, level of consciousness, suspected triggers, recovery details, and personal notes. Build a detailed seizure diary without missing important information. WITNESS MODE If a seizure happens in public, hand your phone to someone nearby. Witness Mode guides them through seizure first aid, helps them time the event accurately, and records key details—even if they have never used the app before. TRACK MEDICATIONS Manage your anti-seizure medications with daily check-ins and optional reminders. Record rescue medications such as Diazepam or Midazolam with exact timestamps, and review your medication history to spot missed doses that may be linked to seizure activity. MONITOR SLEEP AND TRIGGERS Log your sleep quality each morning and record potential seizure triggers, including stress, illness, alcohol, flashing lights, or missed medication. Discover trends and correlations over time to better understand what may influence your seizures. MENSTRUAL CYCLE TRACKING For women with catamenial epilepsy, track menstrual cycles alongside seizure events to identify possible hormone-related seizure patterns and share these insights with your healthcare provider. CHARTS AND INSIGHTS Visualize your seizure history with interactive charts and statistics, including: Calendar heatmap Weekly seizure frequency Seizure type distribution Trigger correlation analysis Time-of-day patterns Filter reports by any date range to better understand long-term trends.
