GLP1 Base
Read full descriptionHide full description
GLP1 Base is a private log for your GLP-1 medicine, whether that's a weekly pen or a once-a-day tablet. Write down each dose and how the days after it go. Nothing leaves your iPhone or iPad unless you export it. It works with semaglutide, tirzepatide, liraglutide, dulaglutide, orforglipron and compounded GLP-1 prescriptions. TODAY A ring shows where you are in the week: day 3 since your shot, say, with a dot on each day you logged a symptom. On a daily tablet it turns into a 24-hour dial. Log a dose from here at any time, backdate a late one, or mark one as not taken. There are no streaks to break. AFTER EACH DOSE Tap how today feels, from nausea and fatigue to sulfur burps, on a 1 to 5 scale. The after-dose chart lays those entries out by day since your last dose, so a rough day 2 is easy to spot. It shows what you logged. It doesn't forecast next week. THE REST OF THE RECORD • A calendar where a week you didn't take it shows up as clearly as a week you did • An injection-site map in eight areas, with how long ago each one was used • Weight and waist, with a simple chart • Refills and what you paid, with a reminder a week before a saved coupon runs out • Progress photos that stay in the app • A reminder on your usual day and time LEARN Five short articles, from nausea to injection sites, work offline and list their sources. Links open glp1base.com, an independent reference site, for what your medicine is, where it's approved and what it does in the body. GLP1 Base has no dose tables and never suggests a dose. Your prescriber sets it; you write it down. YOUR DATA There's no account, no cloud copy, no analytics and no ads. Face ID can lock the app. Make an AES-256 encrypted backup file and restore it on a new phone, or export your records as CSV or JSON. GLP1 BASE PRO Pro adds your history past the last 30 days, the after-dose chart across every cycle, a first-and-latest photo comparison, refill cost totals, a count of doses left in your last refill, and a one-page PDF appointment report built from your own entries. It's a single in-app purchase that never renews. Logging, reminders, the last 30 days, the library, backup and export stay in the app without Pro, and we won't move them behind it later. GLP1 Base is a record-keeping and education app, not a medical device. It does not diagnose or treat anything, give medical advice, or tell you what dose to take or when. Always follow your prescriber's directions. Terms of Use: https://glp1base.keenshift.ai/terms Privacy Policy: https://glp1base.keenshift.ai/privacy

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Tacx Training™ at none against GLP1 Base's 3. Tacx Training™ also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, update cadence, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
