Epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder which affects 1 in 26 people worldwide. It can have a relapsing, remitting, and unpredictable course. Treatment of epilepsy can be frustrating, and has been accurately referred to as being similar to the popular “whack a mole” game. Whether your epilepsy is mild or severe, refractory or controlled, it is critical to objectively and consistently monitor certain factors such as number of seizures, seizure triggers, AED drug or ketone levels, and other vital information. Keeping a detailed epilepsy journal will allow you to quickly notice any changes to your epilepsy, as well as provide you with impartial evidence as to whether your epilepsy treatment is truly effective or losing effectiveness over time.
App Features: - Easy to use - Record seizure details (as much or as little as you like) - Visual representation of data - Generate reports - Keep track of medications with reminders - Customizable to fit your individual epilepsy - Track from your Wear OS watch
Our Story/ Mission:
Our daughter Olivia is our inspiration for this app. Olivia has a refractory and severe epilepsy which began at age 1. Once Olivia´s epilepsy started we were advised by our physicians to keep a written epilepsy journal, in order to track trends and treatment response overtime. Although the journal was helpful in allowing us to objectively monitor the effectiveness of her epilepsy treatments, it was very time consuming and tended to be disorganized; As well, the hundreds of pages of notes did not help us when it became most critical to quickly and accurately summarize months worth of seizure history, (for example during emergency hospital visits or follow up appointments). During our experience navigating the neurology health care system, we found accurate and effective communication to be a key factor in successfully working with doctors and achieving ideal seizure control. We created this app as a free and simple way to monitor your epilepsy; track trends and patterns, objectively determine effectiveness of seizure treatment overtime, and improve success of doctors appointments. Since epilepsy contains dozens of ever changing variables, we decided to organize data into simple visuals which demonstrate seizure trends and patterns over a time span of months to years. Our epilepsy journal allows you to quickly document all the important variables concerning your epilepsy, and to generate a simple and easy to read report to print out or email your doctors. We hope that this app enables you to grasp a better understanding of your own individual epilepsy, and that it empowers you as an effective communicator and advocate within your epilepsy health care team.

Seems a good app to track my son's seizures. Only improvement I would add would be the ability to video record it to help with explaining and describing to doctors.
★★★★☆Sandy Genzale· May 31, 2021
I have Focal epilepsy. My seizures are not as severe as a lot of other people. Mine consist of a phantom smoke smell, staring, dizziness and eye twitches. I love this app. However, the report feature does not work. It would be nice to have a full report with seizure times and length, activity, etc. on one report. Should I be able to do this, and it's just not working for me or is this not available?

Haven't tested it fully yet, but so far so good. Using it to track my son's epilepsy. Edit: Thank you for your response. I wasn't clear in my second question, but you got it any way. It's the historical aspect of medication times that I was after, similar to dosage. Our use case being that our son has TSC, and it's constant tweaking of his dosage and times/number of doses per day. Would be nice to have both available historically without creating eg "Med 1 morning/evening"/"Med 1 evening only"

Moving through the months to see previous seizures is extremely difficult. You have to swipe multiple times. It's like half the time the app doesn't even recognize when your finger is on the screen. And I'm pretty sure all of my data was deleted. I got a new phone, signed it to the account, and it said "data unavailable". So now I'm deleting this app, going to find a better one.

Excuse me, My daughter high on Anesthesia keeps seeing epileptic ads. I need to talk to the police. Dial the number below: 911
★☆☆☆☆Elizabeth Crozier· Apr 11, 2023
Glitch and gives ads just to look at my history. It's also lost my history before. Too difficult to use

The widget never works like it should. Delays ability to immediately time seizure activity.
★★☆☆☆Mason Enslen· Apr 23, 2021
This used to be a wonderful app, until they placed ads in it. This app is supposed to be for the US of Epilepsy not the show of ads it's annoying
