This app was what I was looking for - the fastest, most effective way for me to log inputs and outputs to merge with my data from other health data I track. A couple of concerns: I find myself wishing for editable history so I can tweak entries I’ve made, and the ability to add items to previous days, which seems to be impossible - you can only track the current day. Also an annoying interface thing where when the time picker is open at the bottom of the iOS screen, the screen sort of gets stuck in that position, and have to struggle a bit scroll down to click the Save button.Otherwise it’s a great solution to my very need for a streamlined tracker.
not sure that it’s accurate

Great for logging meals and symptoms but the trigger analysis seems inaccurate. For example, I logged four days of low FODMAP “clean” meals and had stomach burning, bloating, cramping and gas immediately during or after each meal. But the day before that I ate a burger and fries with no symptoms at all, then after four days of low fodmap, I ate a burrito one day and pizza the next day with no symptoms at all that day of or day after. And pasta today with no symptoms durning or after. Despite this pattern, the app still flags fatty foods as my triggers. The tracking itself is useful, but the trigger detection does not match the data I entered.
Developer Response
Thank you for the detailed review! We are glad you found the logging easy but sorry the trigger detection didn’t produce what you expected. We are constantly working to improve it to get the balance right. Feedback like this is invaluable for helping that process so thanks again. If you have further feedback you would like to give please email support@vylaapp.com - Thanks, the Vyla team.
