The gastroparesis tracker built for slow stomachs: log meals by texture in seconds, track your symptom trend, see what helps, and bring a clear report to your GI doctor.
Mello is a calm, fast tracker made specifically for people living with gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying) — not a generic food diary.
WHY MELLO IS DIFFERENT
• Gastroparesis-native: log meals by texture (liquid → puree → soft → solid), fat, fiber and portion — the things that actually affect a slow stomach. No calorie counting, and no FODMAP logic (that's the wrong model for gastroparesis).
• Gastric-ease analysis: every meal gets an on-device "how easily this empties" score, so you can spot gentle vs. heavy meals at a glance.
• Symptom Score built in: rate the symptoms that define gastroparesis — nausea/vomiting, fullness and early satiety, bloating — weekly, plus a 30-second daily check-in, and watch your trend over time.
LOG IN SECONDS
• One-tap meal templates for the 6–8 small meals a day you actually eat.
• Symptom logging that auto-links to your most recent meal.
• Water with a daily hydration goal, weight, blood glucose, bowel (Bristol), stress and sleep.
• Back-date anything — log this morning's meal this afternoon.
SEE WHAT HELPS
• Safe / Caution / Trigger foods list, grown automatically from your own log.
• "Better days vs worse days" insights linking sleep, stress and hydration to your symptoms.
• When-symptoms-hit time-of-day breakdown and weight-trend safety watch.
BUILT FOR YOUR DOCTOR
• Generate a monthly Tolerance Report: symptom trend, meal-tolerance matrix, safe foods & suspected triggers, nourishment check, weight trend, medication timing, and a one-page summary with suggested questions.
• Export it as a PDF to bring to your GI appointment.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Your meal and symptom logs stay on your device and sync through your own private iCloud. Meal photos never leave your phone.
• Only an anonymized summary is sent — and only when you choose to generate a report.
MELLO PRO
• Free: log everything, last 7 days of history, one report preview.
• Pro ($5.99/month or $39.99/year, 7-day free trial): full history & trends, the Foods list, monthly Tolerance Reports and PDF export.

Mello v1.1 — the update about eating ENOUGH, not eating less.
ARE YOU EATING ENOUGH? (new tab)
Gastroparesis quietly starves people — most patients get around half of what their body needs, and being under-nourished makes symptoms worse. Mello now estimates your energy, protein and fluid from what you already log, and tells you when you're falling short. There is no upper limit and it will never tell you to eat less.
SAFETY (new tab)
Red flags from your own log — like not keeping fluids down — plus ER Mode: a one-page summary for a triage nurse showing what you've kept down, how many times you've been sick, what you've already taken, and what worked for you last time. Mello also counts the weeks on medications that have a limit, and checks your meds against gastric-emptying-test rules so your test isn't wasted.
WIN A FOOD BACK
A trigger list can only grow — and that quietly shrinks your diet to a handful of foods. Now Mello spots foods branded by a single bad day and builds a retry plan stacked in their favour: small, soft, at your calmest time of day, timed with your prokinetic.
LOGGING THAT DOESN'T COST YOU ENERGY
Say or type a whole line — "half a bowl of oatmeal, nausea 6". One tap to repeat your last meal. And on a flare day, a 3-tap logger that asks only what matters.
PATTERNS THAT ACTUALLY EXPLAIN YOUR DAYS
See how long after eating your symptoms really hit — usually later than you think, which means you may have been blaming the wrong food. Track your cycle too: symptoms measurably worsen in the two weeks before a period.
ALSO
• Dark mode, at last — for 3am, and for hospital waiting rooms
• Every colour reworked to meet accessibility contrast standards
• Everything worth finding is now in a tab, not buried in a menu
