Bearable - Symptom Tracker

I’m a data nerd and also have a lot of chronic health problems and this app is everything I have been looking for. The developers are extremely responsive to requests and have a great road map, and the app has helped me take control of and understand my health. I will probably pay the subscription for this forever because it is just that worth it.

I have been using this for the past 2 years to track my random chronic illnesses symptoms!

I love this app I wish I could use it to its full extent but I’m on a strict budget can’t afford the subscription

The free version is amazing on its own, but I'm a data junkie, so I chose to invest in a year of premium, and I haven't regretted it for a second. The value this app brings is worth every cent. Especially since I got it while it was on sale (which I hear it frequently is) for a very low price. TL;DR - This app is highly customizable, user friendly, and feature rich. Comes with all kinds of data visualizations, simple AND advanced, for maximum insight without being hard to understand. Life changing: - Detailed insights allow me to identify triggers, patterns, and other data that can provide insight on my symptoms. I can see who has the most positive impact on my life, which habits are truly serving their purpose, and whether any new medications are actually improving my symptoms. PLUS I can see which symptom management techniques are most effective, what time of day or day of the week I feel worst, and how my symptoms fluctuate over time. And more! - The app provides suggestions for the best ways to manage your symptoms and the worst triggers to avoid, based on data from past logs. You can also input your own symptom management strategies for bad days. - Built-in (optional) medication tracking and reminders help me stay on top of which meds I take when, and make sure I never miss a day. - Optional nutrition and water tracking also allows you to stay on top of your health and make sure you're meeting your needs. (I don't personally use this feature, but I can think of a thousand ways this could be helpful for other users.) Practical upsides: - User-friendly and easy to understand. I figured it out and set it up quickly. - VERY customizable to allow the user to measure and track whatever you'd like, going as simple or in depth as your heart desires. - Customizable reminders for the best times of day that work for you. - Simple AND advanced data visualization at any time to best suit your needs. - Low friction; it's so easy and simple to log symptoms that I find myself naturally doing it 5-10 times a day without reminders. Just tap a button and you're golden. - Community focused developers who take suggestions from the users and work hard to make the app better and better. Public suggestion forum includes information on plans for future changes. Cons: - Mood is rated on a scale of 1-10 and can be logged as many times per day as you'd like, but other symptoms are rated 0-4 and only up to 4 times per day in time blocks that are not customizable. I personal

Asks lots of personal information not covered by HIPAA when installing. Requires an account and after about 10 min of setup asks you for a monthly fee. Free version of the app looks like it does anything useful. id much rather be able to install and use basic functions of the app, without a lot of questions, and pay if i found it useful. they waste your time so you feel invested and then hit you with a fee. All the usual sleazy marketing ploys - (would a cute little bear rip you off?) dont waste your time.

I love this app. Once you play with it the app is super easy to use. I am more mindful of what triggers my mood swings. Bye bye caffeine (and I wish work 🙄). Thank you for helping me help myself!

I haven’t even set up my account fully yet and I already dislike how this app acts. It asks questions like what symptoms currently bother me the most but I can only pick two… I have 5 debilitating illnesses that take up more space than two symptoms.. pls fix that.

I really love this app and how you can customize it. I have an Auto-immune disease and this allows me to track my meds, how I feel throughout the day, BP and pulse and more. The only complaint I have is that with the symptom tracker. the the 6 hour intervals being customizable instead of the set 6am, 12 pm, 6pm, 12am…. I am only end up using 2 of the 6. I'm not up at 6am or awake at 12am (normally). I know its a range but when you are trying to be specific, it would be nice to make your own intervals that relate to you personally. I don't seem to be the only one frustrated with this, so maybe they will add this in a future up-date. 🤞

Super awesome, but please add an Apple Watch app!

The app was excellent in tracking daily symptoms, mood, food intake, stress level, activity level, a stool section and there was an area for extra notes. I have dysautonomia it was great for everyday tracking. The only huge drawback I had a difficult time exporting the data. I tried various ways to transfer my data and I could not succeed. I wanted to easily export most of the information to my doctors. I feel Bearable needs to resolve this issue. Please make changes so I and everyone can easily export their information.
