My Pain Diary & Symptom Tracker: Gold Edition - Reviews, Revenue and Downloads - Apple App Store

Description

This is the successor the the popular, award-winning, best selling, doctor recommended pain tracking app, My Pain Diary: Chronic Pain & Symptom Tracker.

This version, My Pain Diary: GOLD EDITION, strikes a delicate balance between ease-of-use and a broad feature-set. This is a truly USEFUL app, and the newest member of the My Pain Diary family, which has helped over 90,000 chronic pain sufferers better manage their pain, improve communication with their doctors, and gain insights that would be hard attain through other means.

Useful and popular features include automatic weather fetching, iCloud sync, basic medication tracking, photo attachments, graphs and PDF doctor's reports.

This app is highly customizable. Everyone tracks pain differently, and this is a framework that supports just about any tracking strategy.

Created by a chronic pain patient to track, manage, and report on chronic pain and symptoms, chronic illness, and mental health.

That means there is no big company with deep pockets supporting this project. I am just one man with a chronic pain condition, a demanding day job, and a young family to care for. I just happen to be formally trained in design, self-taught in programming, experienced at marketing and customer relations, and am a chronic pain patient myself. That's a very rare combination of traits that is hard to come by, so I'm making the most of it, and holding my own against the big players.

Enough about me, back to the app!

Features:
+ iCloud Sync Support
+ Universal App
+ Highly Customizable
+ Easy to use

ANATOMY OF A PAIN DIARY ENTRY

TRACKERS: Trackers can be thought of as labels or folders that categorize and differentiate your entries. These are the key to tracking more than one condition and comparing conditions to each other.

A common strategy is to name the Trackers after the diseases/conditions that you will be tracking. I.e. Migraines, Anxiety, Fibromyalgia, etc. These are just examples.

METRICS: Each entry is composed of one or more optional pieces of information called 'Metrics'. For example, two commonly used metrics are 'Pain Intensity' and 'Pain Duration'. Metrics are associated with and shared amongst your Trackers. This means that you can set it up to use different metrics for different Trackers, keeping your entry pages clean and the cognitive load low.

So much potential

This app appears to be fantastic, customisable and says you can print reports. Unfortunately, with little updates there are glitches. I lost 3 months worth of metric data and it crashes whenever I try and export a report. I would pay more if these issues were resolved because overall it is the best app I have found but what is the point of data goes missing or it can’t be shared with doctors.

Keeps crashing

App keeps crashing. Reinstall didn’t work. Want a refund. How can a developer not maintain their app. The app clearly has bugs either fix it or delist it. Apple should also have a better system for reporting lazy developers.

Unusable

This app, whilst seemingly the easy way to track chronic pain and illness symptoms, actually causes further symptoms due to continual crashing. 0 stars. I want a refund!

Crashes

Can’t use it crashes. Can’t believe I spent money on it.

Crashes continually, way overdue for an update

Despite some glowing online reviews for this app, it seems completely unusable these days. Crashes all over the place UI very outdated.

Use to be amazing

Was really good But keeps booting and glitches Iv tried support but no response

Disappointed - not detailed enough to gather data

Had downloaded this app this afternoon as I am post-op after a foot/ankle surgery and am still getting painful symptoms that change daily. I downloaded thinking I could record what is happening and where. Unfortunately all I could do it highlight the foot/ankle as a whole which doesn’t give me any date to give back to my surgeon. It basically leaves me recording “my foot is sore” which is the whole reason I bought the app to have more information recorded than that :(

Weight lbs - kgs Please

I’m Australian and there’s no option for kilograms - kgs when you put in your body weight into it. It only has lbs.

Great for its purpose.

I’m really bad about being aware of my symptoms which makes it difficult to answer the doctors questions. This app is just what I need. I can document easily during the day as changes occur.

Perfect pain/symptoms tracking app

I am always sceptical about having to pay for something but this app is definitely worth while. I love the way that you can alter it and make it work exactly for yourself. I’m not too sure on the charts as of yet but what would be awesome is if it had a reminder section so as it gave you an alert to remind you to fill in the diary
