PeriWise is a private companion for perimenopause and menopause. Track how you actually feel — hot flushes, sleep, mood, brain fog, joint pain and more — and watch the patterns emerge over weeks and months. When you next see your doctor, bring a clear PDF summary instead of trying to remember. EVERYTHING STAYS ON YOUR IPHONE No account. No sign-up. No server. No tracking. No ads. Your entries live in an encrypted database on your device, and PeriWise has no way to read them. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Log symptoms in seconds, with the six that matter most to you on the home screen • Track your cycle — period days on the calendar, and an estimate of when the next may start • Record medication and supplements, with reminders scheduled on device • Note measurements including weight, blood pressure and blood sugar • Connect your Oura Ring or Apple Watch — nightly temperature, sleep, heart rate and stress land on the same charts as your symptoms • See trends and connections across symptoms, sleep and mood • Read plain-language guidance on what is happening and why • Create a doctor-ready PDF report — always free • Log from your Apple Watch when your iPhone is not to hand • Lock the app with Face ID • Export and import your data if you change device ABOUT THE CYCLE ESTIMATE Perimenopausal cycles are irregular by nature. The estimate is for orientation only. It is not a contraceptive method and must not be used to prevent or plan a pregnancy. SUBSCRIPTION PeriWise is free to download — and logging is free forever: symptoms, cycle, medications, measurements, Apple Health and Oura sync, and the doctor-ready PDF report. PeriWise Premium, €1.49 per month or the equivalent in your local currency, unlocks personal insights and the 30- and 90-day trend views. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase and renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account settings.

About

Meno Log

Features
Read full description

Every hot flash, with the time it actually happened. Most menopause apps only let you say "I had hot flashes today". That is not what your doctor needs to see. Meno Log saves each flash as its own moment: tap the circle, choose how strong it was, done. Two taps, exact time — and you can correct the time later for the one that woke you at three in the morning. LOGGED IN TWO TAPS • One big button for a hot flash — the time is saved for you • Nine more symptoms: night sweats, sleep, mood, brain fog, headache, fatigue, palpitations, joint pain, plus your own • Three levels of intensity, an optional note, full edit and delete YOUR DAY AND YOUR NIGHT History shows every day with flashes split into daytime and night, so the pattern is visible at a glance. A REPORT IN A MINUTE Two weeks, one month or three months — share it as text or as a CSV file your doctor can open in any spreadsheet. NO ACCOUNT. NO CLOUD. No sign-up, no server, no ads, no analytics. Everything stays on this iPhone. ONE PAYMENT, NOT A SUBSCRIPTION Logging is never limited. The free version keeps the last 14 days of history; one purchase unlocks your full history and doctor reports forever. Meno Log is a personal journal. It does not diagnose, does not interpret your entries and does not give medical or treatment advice. For anything about your health, talk to your doctor.
