Gut Diary: IBS Food Tracker

Living with IBS, Crohn's or colitis means answering the same question over and over: was it something I ate? Gut Diary is the notebook that finally lets you answer it with data instead of guesswork.

Log what you eat, how you feel and what happens, then look at the patterns across weeks rather than trying to remember last Tuesday.

🍽️ FOOD LOG THAT TAKES SECONDS
• Add meals from a built-in food list or your own items
• Portion and meal type — enough detail to be useful, little enough to actually do
• Reuse the meals you eat every week instead of retyping them

🩺 SYMPTOMS, PROPERLY RECORDED
• Pain, bloating, urgency and fatigue, each rated from 0 to 10
• Severity and timing on every entry
• Free-text notes for the things a checkbox never covers

🚻 BOWEL MOVEMENT LOG
• Bristol stool scale type, urgency, and the flags your gastroenterologist asks about
• Discreet, quick entry — the screen does not announce itself across a train carriage
• Bowel movement counts and blood or mucus days in your reports

💊 MEDICATIONS
• Track the medications you take and log every dose
• Reminders so a dose is not missed on a bad day
• Doses logged in the same diary as your symptoms, not a separate app

🔎 TRIGGER PATTERNS
• An optional AI trigger report reads up to 30 days of your diary, compares what you ate with how you felt afterwards, and writes a plain summary of the patterns it can see
• Trends screen charts your daily pain and bloating over time

📄 THE APPOINTMENT REPORT
• Export a PDF summary of your diary for a gastroenterologist or dietitian
• Symptoms, bowel movements, foods and medications in one document instead of "it's been bad lately"
• Share it straight from the share sheet

🔒 PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Your diary is stored on your phone — no account, no login, no cloud sync
• Nothing about your health is ever passed to the ad SDK or used to target ads
• The AI trigger report is the one feature that sends diary content off the device, and only when you tap to generate it. Never use it and nothing about your health ever leaves your phone

WHY PEOPLE USE IT
• Elimination diets and reintroductions need records, not memory
• Two minutes a day produces something your clinician can actually work with
• Works offline, everywhere, including the places you would rather not be
• Nothing renews unless you choose a subscription

PERFECT FOR
• People with IBS, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis or coeliac disease
• Anyone working through a low-FODMAP or elimination protocol with a dietitian
• People with unexplained digestive symptoms preparing for a first appointment
• Carers keeping records for someone else

FREE AND PREMIUM The free version covers seven entries a day, seven days of history and three medications. Premium unlocks unlimited entries and history, the full food database, custom foods, the AI trigger report, PDF export and no ads — as a monthly or yearly subscription, or a single lifetime payment.

IMPORTANT — PLEASE READ Gut Diary is a personal record-keeping organizer. It is NOT a medical device and does NOT provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment. It does not tell you what to eat.

Patterns described by the AI trigger report are statistical observations over a small personal sample. They can be wrong, and they can suggest a food is a trigger when it is not. Do not start, stop or change any diet, elimination protocol or medication because of something this app displayed. Discuss it with your doctor or dietitian first.

Blood in stool, unexplained weight loss, persistent fever, severe abdominal pain or worsening symptoms need medical attention — not another logged entry.

Recent changes:
• Each medication now has its own reminder at its own time, and a changed time takes effect.
• Doses like 2.5 mg are no longer rounded, and 2,5 is accepted.
• Report averages include your good days, so pain isn't overstated.
• Moving an entry to another day updates both days' summaries.
• Report PDFs wrap long text instead of cutting it off.
• Double-tapping Save no longer creates duplicate entries.
• Premium stays unlocked if Google Play can't be reached.
