Epipal: Seizure Alerts & Log

This app is great to keep an eye on your family and easy to access. I would definitely give it a try

As a college student, this is a great app to have to help alert my family and roommate! Every update continues to make the app better and this is the only seizure alert app that I trust.

Great app that combines many needed epilepsy components of life. Made by developers who saw a purpose in helping a friend. Cheers

I had high hopes using this for my 5 year old with epilepsy wearing an iwatch. Unfortunately there is no way to configure this for her without sending her a code that she needs to activate. Requires child to have email address and device other than watch and that’s not practical. Would love to have tried it but the app continues to say no one in the family has epilepsy and as a parent I can’t change my configuration as the one with epilepsy.

I originally got this app to get a sense of peace and independence. I have tonic clonics in my sleep and my husband works night shift work and our biggest concern was for me to have one while he’s out working and wouldn’t know until I eventually were to wake up hours later.. So with that being said, when I unfortunately did have an episode in my sleep, it alerted my husband right away and he was able to come right to my side. I have the setting on medium sensitivity for my Apple Watch and it is perfect! Highly recommend to anybody considering

I appreciated the app. Although I’ve only been using a short time, it does have some benefits like medication reminders, seizure detection, an aura setting for you to jot down after you have a suspected aura. This along with tracking my sleep is helpful. I believe they will also develop a tracker to determine if you have nighttime seizures which would be awesome. Great tech

As a father of 5 and a business owner, plus going through the divorce process my life has been very busy lately. This app has been extremely helpful with all of the features like medication reminders and tracking the days I have seizures and the days I don’t. You feature in particular is especially helpful. When I do have a seizure it alerts my best friend that only lives a few miles away. As I am fighting for my kids I’m hoping this is one of the things that keeps them in my custody. Thank you to the creators for doing such an awesome job and really keeping our needs in mind.

I’m a doctor and so is my wife- couldn’t make the registration work and didn’t alert. Waste of time and money. Look elsewhere

Every update is made with improvements based on client feedback and/or scientific research. Love that they are using actual studies to build this app. I had an appointment to discuss my questions about the app. I was also able to give feedback that they took notes on happily. They love being able to improve people's experiences. They ask clients to setup these meetings to help improve the app and our experience with it too. So if you havn't met with them and are using the app I highly recommend it. I'm more excited about the app than before my meeting. Seizures cause me havoc to simplify. Having a sidekick (the app) to alert my partner of seizure events will be a game changer. I can be loopy after seizures and need him nearby immediately to help me stay safe and well.

The heart rate and sleep functions aren’t working for me. I know it’s not my watch because the Apple built in functions for these things are working flawlessly. My BPM spikes drastically during focals at night so I really needed that feature along with the regular seizure monitoring. Not sure I’ll purchase after the trial, may try seizalarm instead. Also, there’s been a random counting timer for the last 20 hours. I thought maybe it was a false alarm that started counting or something, but checked the logs and there’s nothing there? Not sure what this is but it’s constantly popping up on my watch and that’s annoying and makes me question the reliability of the app as a whole.
