Revamped iPad app: bigger, better analysis screens make the iPad the place to dig into your data. Bowel Pattern Score: see how today compares with your own stable baseline, based on frequency, urgency and Bristol score. It's a comparison, not a diagnosis or flare prediction. Current State: a home screen summary showing how long you've been in a normal phase, with a 14-day chart and your previous active phases. Mucus tracking: log mucus alongside blood on bowel movements. Photos: add an optional photo to meals, snacks and drinks, and to your favourites. Daily check-in reminder: an optional home screen reminder and evening notification, with a time you choose. Thanks for all the feedback so far. If something's missing or could work better, I'd love to hear about it.

Your Apple Health sleep and heart rate data now feeds directly into your patterns and reports — completely privately, with nothing written back to Health. Sleep patterns — sleep hours, wake count and a sleep quality score, charted against your active phases Heart rate & HRV — daily resting heart rate and heart rate variability from Apple Health, laid out alongside your symptoms

Apple Watch companion app You can now log bowel movements and cramps directly from your wrist. Quick, discreet, and syncs straight back to the app. Experimental environmental tracking After reading research suggesting possible links between IBD flares and barometric pressure and temperature, I've added optional tracking of both. Enable them in Settings → Environment. The data appears on your home screen, in your patterns charts, and in a dedicated exploratory section of your PDF report. Everything is clearly marked as experimental — this is for your own investigation, not clinical guidance. Active phase threshold on patterns The active phase threshold now appears as a reference line directly on your patterns charts, so you can see at a glance when you were in or near an active phase. Set the threshold value in Settings. Simplified settings Settings is now a clean list — each category has its own page, making it easier to find what you need. Simplified home screen The home screen no longer duplicates logging and status. Each tile shows your last logged time and acts as a direct tap-to-log shortcut.

This update is built around one thing I needed myself: something to bring to my IBD appointment that actually shows what the last few months have really been like. NEW: SYMPTOM REPORTS Generate a clean, clinical PDF summary of your bowel movements, cramps, stress and energy — covering up to a full year of data. Choose your date range and what to include, then share or print it before your next appointment. I built this because I was tired of trying to summarise months of symptoms from memory in a rushed ten-minute consultation — I hope it saves you that same scramble. DAILY CHECK-IN REMINDER A notification now nudges you to complete your daily check-in, so the gaps in your data are fewer and the patterns you see are more reliable. REFRESHED LOOK AND FEEL My IBD Tracker now shares a consistent design with the other apps in my suite — cleaner, calmer, and more polished throughout. ADDITIONAL WIDGETS View todays summary stats as a medium widget, or new large widget with both today's summary and log options. This app started as something I built for myself, and it keeps improving because of people like you telling me what’s missing or what could work better. If you’ve got feedback, a suggestion, or something that’s frustrating you, please get in touch — I read every message. And if My IBD Tracker has genuinely helped you get a handle on your symptoms, a review helps more than you’d think, both for me and for the next person searching for something like this. Thank you for using it.
