GLPrivate
Read full descriptionHide full description
The GLP-1 tracker that never sees your data. GLPrivate is a completely private companion for your GLP-1 journey — from first titration dose through maintenance. Track your shots, understand your side effects, watch your progress, and walk into every prescriber visit with a report that answers the questions before they're asked. Everything stays on your iPhone. There is no account to create, no cloud we control, no analytics, no ads, and no subscription. The App Store privacy label says "Data Not Collected" because we literally cannot see your data. SHOT DAY, IN SECONDS • Your dose due, computed from your titration plan • A body map that remembers your last 8 injection sites and suggests where to rotate next • One tap to log — under 15 seconds on shot day BUILT FOR HOW GLP-1s ACTUALLY FEEL • Daily check-in for mood, energy, hunger, and food noise — the question that matters is "is the dose doing its job?" • Cycle view shows hunger and food noise creeping back in the days before your next shot • Side-effect log with severity, automatically matched to days-since-injection so patterns show up ("day 2 is my rough day") • Digestive tracking with the details your prescriber actually asks about YOUR WHOLE PLAN, HANDLED • Standard titration schedules for the major weekly and daily GLP-1 medications, plus fully custom plans for compounded doses in mg or units • Started mid-treatment? Tell GLPrivate the dose you're on and it continues from there • Switching medications? Your history stays intact and your charts show the transition • Supply tracking for pens and vials with a run-out date that understands your upcoming dose changes • Discreet reminders that never show a medication name on your lock screen PROGRESS BEYOND THE SCALE • Weight trend, segmented by dose step — see what each dose actually did • Lean-mass and waist trends answer the question that matters: is the loss fat, or muscle? • Lab values from your visits — A1C, fasting glucose, lipids — as clean trend lines, never interpreted for you • Non-scale victories log for the wins that carry you through plateaus • Progress photos stored only inside the app — never in your camera roll • Protein, fiber, and water targets with two-tap logging — no food database, no calorie counting, no judgment PLAYS WELL WITH APPLE HEALTH (READ-ONLY, ALL OPTIONAL) • Weight, body fat, lean mass, and waist from smart scales • Workouts from your Apple Watch land in your training log automatically • Steps, exercise minutes, and sleep for context on rough days • Food logged in other apps counts toward your protein, fiber, and water — no double-logging • Glucose from CGMs and meters, shown without judgment • Every import is read-only and off by default — GLPrivate never writes to Health, and works completely without it THE DOCTOR REPORT One tap builds a clean PDF summary of your doses, adherence, weight trend by dose, side-effect patterns, and nutrition — formatted for a prescriber visit. Generated on your phone. Shared only if you choose to. PRIVATE BY ARCHITECTURE, NOT BY POLICY • No account. No sign-in. Nothing to breach. • Zero network calls in the core app — your data cannot leak because it is never transmitted • Face ID / Touch ID app lock and an optional discreet home-screen icon • Optional iCloud sync to your own private iCloud — end-to-end within your Apple account, invisible to us • One-file backup you can export, hold, and restore anywhere GLPrivate works alongside Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, Zepbound, Saxenda, Victoza, and compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide programs. GLPrivate is an independent tracking journal and is not affiliated with or endorsed by any pharmaceutical company. GLPrivate does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or dosing recommendations.

Dose Dot is a simple, private GLP-1 shot and weight log. It remembers where your recent shots went, keeps your refills straight, and turns your weight history into a chart you will actually want to share. No account. No cloud. No ads. No tracking. Every feature free. TRACK YOUR SHOT Tap the body where the shot went and Dose Dot keeps the exact sites of your four most recent shots in view, front and back, newest largest. Tapping the body on the main screen starts a log at that site. Add the medicine and dose from a built-in list or type your own; the app remembers your usual for next time. It records what you tell it and never recommends where to inject next. EASY WEIGHT LOGGING Weigh in when you like, in pounds or kilograms. Your current weight leads the screen with how far it has moved, and the chart colors each stretch by the medicine and dose you were on, with a ribbon along the floor showing when each began. Drag a finger across the chart to read any day. Choose 30 days, 90 days, all time, or a custom range. Already weigh in with Apple Health? Connect it and your Health weigh-ins appear on the chart, and weights you log here are saved to Health. Dose Dot reads and writes weight only. DOSES AND REFILLS See your estimated supply as vials and your refills as boxes. When a new box arrives, one tap adds it. Log a shot with an empty shelf and Dose Dot assumes you opened a new box. Turn on the refill reminder and it tells you when it is time to call for a refill, with Ordered and Remind me tomorrow one tap away. When one refill is left, it gives you an early note to contact your prescriber. REMINDERS ON YOUR TIMING Pick any interval from 1 to 14 days and a preferred time of day. Dose Dot counts from your latest log, shows the day of your next injection right on the main screen, and lets you move it to another day. If that day passes without a log, a reminder follows once a day at the same time until you log, for up to a week. Nothing is ever labeled late, missed, or overdue, and no notification names your medicine or dose. SHARE TO SOCIAL Turn the chart into a share-ready image in feed or story size, light or dark, colored by dose. Share it anywhere through the iOS share sheet or copy it to the clipboard. Export a one-page PDF or the CSV behind it whenever you want. BRING YOUR HISTORY WITH YOU Switching from Shotsy? Import its JSON or CSV export and your shots, sites, doses, and weigh-ins come along. Dose Dot also writes and reads its own backup file, so moving to a new phone is one export and one import. Every import shows you what it found before writing anything. MINIMAL ONBOARDING One screen, one button. No sign-up, no questions, no account. TOTALLY PRIVATE Your shots, body locations, weight, reminder settings, and refill records stay inside the app on your iPhone. Dose Dot has no login, no developer-run server, no advertising or analytics SDK, no cloud sync, and no network connection of its own. Data leaves only when you export, share, or copy it yourself, or when you connect Apple Health, which receives your weight and nothing else. Dose Dot is a personal record, not medical advice. It does not recommend a dose, medication, injection site, or treatment schedule.
