FlareLog: A Symptom Tracker for People Living With Chronic Conditions

FlareLog is an Android symptom and trigger tracker for people living with migraine, IBS, endometriosis, or chronic pain. It brings a daily log, calendar history, and PDF reporting into one place. I made it so that people with chronic conditions have a simpler way to record what they are experiencing.

Why did I make FlareLog?

A symptom tracker should make recording easier on a difficult day. I wanted people to have somewhere to note symptoms and revisit their history, instead of relying on memory when they want to explain how the last few weeks have felt. The app starts with condition-specific checklists rather than requiring everyone to design a journal from scratch.

The purpose is to support observation. A suspected trigger is a note worth reviewing, not proof that one thing caused a symptom. A useful journal preserves what you noticed without turning every coincidence into a conclusion.

What can you record?

• Symptom severity, symptoms, suspected triggers, and a note.
• Condition-specific checklists for migraine, IBS, endometriosis, and chronic pain.
• An ongoing flare and medication taken alongside it.
• Daily entries you can revisit in a calendar or timeline.

You can also set a daily logging reminder. According to the current listing, the reminder skips a day when you have already logged. That keeps the routine focused on recording rather than repeatedly dismissing a prompt.

How can the history help at an appointment?

FlareLog’s PDF export is intended to turn recorded entries into a summary you can share with a clinician. It provides a starting point for a conversation: when something happened, what you recorded, and which details you want to discuss. Check the report before sharing it and add context that an app cannot know.

Pattern summaries are prompts for review, not diagnoses. FlareLog does not replace professional care or establish which treatment you need. The most valuable record is one that helps you describe your own experience clearly.

Who is FlareLog for?

It is for someone who wants a condition-focused journal with quick logging and an accessible history. Start with the condition you want to track, make an entry, and build a record over time. You do not need to fill every field perfectly for the diary to be worth keeping.

Where can you download it?

FlareLog is available on Google Play. The screenshots on this page show the daily view, calendar, and logging sheet from the app’s release assets. Review the current store listing and data-safety information before installing.
