AcidLog
Read full descriptionHide full description
Most acid reflux advice hands you a list of 40 foods to avoid. AcidLog does the opposite: it finds the 3 or 4 that actually bother YOU — so you can stop fearing the rest. Log a meal and how you felt in about 30 seconds. AcidLog's correlation engine connects what you ate to your symptoms and, within 14 days, gives you a personal trigger list ranked by confidence. WHY A GENERIC "AVOID THESE FOODS" LIST FAILS Coffee wrecks one person and does nothing to the next. Reflux is personal. Instead of eliminating everything, AcidLog watches your own meals and symptoms and surfaces the patterns that are actually yours. HOW IT WORKS 1. Log — add a meal and rate symptoms (heartburn, regurgitation, throat, cough, bloating) in seconds. 2. Correlate — the on-device engine links foods to the symptoms that followed. 3. Discover — by day 14 you get a ranked list of your likely triggers, with a confidence score for each. WHAT'S FREE The full 14-day trigger discovery is free: log meals and symptoms and see your first correlations and trigger list. No trial paywall in front of the core. ACIDLOG PRO (monthly or annual subscription) - Unlimited history and correlation beyond day 14 - Doctor-ready PDF report to bring to your gastroenterologist - Trend stats over weeks and months - Ongoing trigger refinement as your diet changes BUILT FOR REAL LIFE - Offline logging — entries queue on your phone and sync when you're back online - No ads. Ever. - Fast enough to log at the table, not an hour later - Works for GERD, silent reflux / LPR, and post-meal indigestion MADE FOR - Adults with GERD or silent reflux (LPR), including long-term PPI users who want their own triggers, not another handout - Anyone newly diagnosed and told to "keep a food diary" - Caregivers who cook and want to know which meals set off symptoms AN HONEST NOTE AcidLog is a diary and correlation tool, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat, or cure any condition, and it isn't a substitute for your doctor. Its job is to hand you and your clinician better data. Find your triggers, keep your food. Start free.

StepScroll blocks the apps that eat your day and opens them again when you move. Walk, squat, hold a plank or stretch, and every step and rep turns into minutes of scroll time. HOW IT WORKS • Pick the apps you want to use less. StepScroll blocks them with Apple's Screen Time. • Earn minutes by moving. Your steps count on their own, from your iPhone or Apple Watch through Apple Health. Or prop up your phone and the camera counts your reps and holds. • Spend them when you like. The apps open, the timer runs, and they block again by themselves when it reaches zero. 32 MOVES, FOUR WAYS TO EARN • Workout: squats, lunges, push-ups, sit-ups, jumping jacks, plank, wall sit and more • Yoga: tree, warrior II, chair, downward dog, cobra, cat-cow • Stretch: forward fold, hamstring, quad, child's pose, butterfly and more • Pilates: glute bridge, the hundred, roll-up, teaser, dead bug and more YOUR RULES • Choose Gentle, Balanced or Strict, then fine-tune what every move is worth. • Set the steps that open your day and the minutes they unlock. • Minutes you earn are banked and never expire. • A real emergency? You get 3 emergency unlocks a month. SEE IT CHANGE Keep your streak, watch your steps add up, and see the time you spend in the apps you've blocked fall week by week. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • The camera counts reps on your phone. Frames are never recorded or sent anywhere. • Your Screen Time data and the apps you pick never leave your phone. • StepScroll only reads your step count from Apple Health and never writes to it. • No account, no sign-up.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: StepScroll at every 2 days against AcidLog's every 3 weeks. AcidLog's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, ads, in-app purchases and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
