Chronic Pain Tracker App Reviews

A altamente recomendable para personas y quieren llevar un registro de los dolores o inquietudes del cuerpo de la persona para buscar remedios a los mismos es un poco caro pero vale la pena

Ihave spent a long, long time looking for an app that would let me track everything I need to track with my health. This one does it and it’s fairly intuitive to use, a problem with a lot of trackers. I only have one request that would convince me to give it 5 stars. That would be a place somewhere in the sleep tracking to track if I used my CPAP, how long, and how many apnea events per hour (AHI) I had on a given night. These details have a significant impact on my pain levels and are questions I’m almost always asked but my docs.

This app has been a terrific resource for tracking pain locations, effectiveness of medications and examining triggers. My doctor is impressed with the large amount of critical information contained in the reports. I’m quite happy with my purchase!

I’ve been using this program for years and have compiled a large database of information regarding my migraine headaches. I print out reports for my neurologists and they are clearly impressed with what is being tracked and how it may relate to increased pain. Their support team has gone out of their way to fix bugs and answer questions. I highly recommend this app for those who really want to gather quality information that may assist medical professionals!

Great app and I have tried MANY! I would rate 5 stars if you could import pics on entries, make a lower systolic BP range and separate mental and physical fatigue! Is an update in the near future? Thanks for the superb app!!!

This app is the best app for you and your doctor. Critical information that tracts my Pain.. related to a chronic illness from CRPS. FANTASTIC!

No landscape option for ipad users. Unless I just can’t find the option, if you make a mistake there is no way to delete an entry. Tried looking in the help section with no success.

I have a chronic nerve pain condition. For the Author, Neurofibromas Type 2. I have many hundreds of rumors on my spinal nerves. No surgery, since these are not cancerous, and probably go into the nerve a bit, paralysis is possible. This app allows me to design the VERY UNIQUE symptoms of NF2, to an application not designed specifically for it; yet still works perfectly. My Neurologist and Pain Management Neurologist can use the information during my visits.

I've been using this app for about 3 years, and it's awesome. It can track all sorts of stuff, and is very easy to customize to your situation. I use it across a few devices also, the sync with Dropbox works flawlessly. The reports have shown me trends that I missed, and have helped me identify pain triggers and solutions. Support is quick, with emails replied to within a day. I highly recommend this app if you have any chronic issues. Even non-pain related things are easy to track.

My wife and I both have chronic illnesses, and cast about for quite a while for something to track their goings-on for our specialists. This app is the only one we have found that lets us do even close to everything we need. It could use a few touch-ups, but is very definitely best in breed.

I started using this well over a year ago. I love the way it tracks everything and you can carry over how you've felt from day to day and adjust from there. The picture is great too. It's like walking in a doctors office and marking up their questionnaire!

I really liked the Lite version so I sprang for this when I ran out of diary entries. Unfortunately, I have tried everything the help section has to offer about how to import the Lite version data and setup, to absolutely no avail. The import just simply does not work - and that is why I paid for this. I have a ton of custom entries in the Lite version I do not want to have to manually recreate - and I want to be able to see those entries as promised in this insanely expensive app. Since I can't import my settings and data, this app has become useless to me because I am *hoping* that somehow I'll still be able to do it and not lose all of my previous hard work, so I can't even start using it.

This app is really, really wonderful and I'm so grateful to the developers for creating it! I've never paid more than a buck or two for an app but this one is worth the money (that said...maybe take the price down a couple bucks? Folks in chronic pain don't generally have a ton of expendable income!!) I've tried a bunch of other pain tracker apps and this one is my favorite by far. I almost gave five stars, but there are a few improvements that would make it even better. The upsides: There are SO many options and ways to track almost anything you need for chronic pain. The reporting function is great and all the graphs are quite helpful. The body pain map is especially cool. There's a little bit of a learning curve, but it's fairly simple after you play around with it a bit. It's very customizable but still consistent enough that it's simple to quickly enter in some information a few times a day to maintain good and consistent records. I've been meaning to keep a pain journal for years (for myself and for my doctors) but I've never been consistent enough in the past for it to actually be helpful. This app solves that issue completely and now I can get together some reliable information and print out reports/graphs to share with my doctor. The downsides: it's honestly one of the ugliest apps I've ever seen. It doesn't matter much because the functionality is so great, but I gotta look at this thing multiple times a day and, especially for $10, it'd be nice to have a little more design thought put into aesthetics/user interface. Also, it doesn't look like you can transfer records from the trial lite version after buying the (expensive) paid version. If that is the case, that's a big bummer--20 entries basically lost. You can download and save a report, but you have to start fresh with the full version so previous records aren't included in the new reports. It would be smart for the developers to include a way to upgrade from the lite version and keep previous entries intact--other (and cheaper!) apps can do it, so why not? There is a way to purchase more diary slots in the lite version, but it's unclear whether the $10 full version is better or different than purchasing everything separately, so in the interest of not chancing wasted money, I just purchased the full version and started over. I'll update if I figure out a decent workaround. A few things I'd like to see added in future updates: A category for "failed treatment attempts" or something like that. For example say you tried ice and medication and it didn't help the pain, that would be good to track as well, instead of just the treatments that did work. Similarly, a follow-up option to remind you to check in after an attempted treatment would be helpful. For example: if you take X medication or try Y treatment, a push notification that asks what your new pain level is an hour later. Then you could gather better information about which treatments help which pain types/locations. That would be absolutely priceless for those of us who have complex pain conditions and an arsenal of different treatment/approaches--it's so difficult to isolate what works or doesn't work for any particular pain type/location. You can set an alarm on your phone to do that manually (if you remember) but an in-app feature would be much better. All in all: really great app, way better than the other pain trackers available in the app store. Even at the fairly hefty price tag, I highly recommend!

Took me a few hours to go thru all the settings and make it perfect for me. Very adjustable and tracks SO much important information in great detail. Love coloring the body to show my pain areas! My docs are going to love the documents I can send them now. Creates such detailed reports, I can't wait to see them in a month. I can sync between my iPhone & iPad. Backups are easy. Everything is easy once you get used to it adding a few entries. Set reminders 3 times a day so I don't forget to keep up. Perfect app for anyone with chronic pain in many locations with many triggers. Keeps track of meds and other pain remedies. So happy I found this before my new Pain Management appt. I always forget so much at my appts, this will make it a breeze for my docs to understand! It's worth the price, buy it and make your life easier!

I've been using this for years they keep making it better and better. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. And thank you for the updates.

I've suffered from chronic pain for over 15 years. On my own I had always tried to keep a detailed pain journal to look for any patterns that might arise. The current version of the app is amazing at help you see past all of the little notes you keep. In the first week I was able to visualize exactly how much different factors in life either raised or lowered my pain. I made changes to lower my exposure to certain pain triggers and was able to decrease the amount of medicine I take. After a few months I was also able to use the report function to see how a certain medication change had increased the number of headaches I have by a large factor. My doctor took me off of the medicine and now things are back to normal. I had always known that things like the weather and stress increased my pain but I never realized how much. I also was able to notice one thing that relieved my pain that I never realized before. I also was able to see that the trigger point injections I was getting actually made my pain worse. The program has a great list of potential pain triggers. There were a couple that I hadn't thought of that I saw did increase my pain but the biggest benefit was that I could enter my own triggers, medications, and relief techniques into the lists. I would suggest that you also take the time when you set it up to personalize these lists. It will pay off for you in the long run. I also strongly recommend that you use the tool that lets you "paint" where your pain is. The tool lets you color where your pain is. For people who have pain in multiple places there are different colors you can use to represent the relative pain between there areas. In my case I'll have pain in my legs, left shoulder and back at the same time but the legs hurt the worst so I choose the Red color for my legs and yellow or orange for my back and shoulder. By taking the time to really pay attention and carefully paint the exact location of my pain I was able to see that I had a problem with my left knee I never new I had. The only potential flaw in this is human nature. When I first used it the only time I ever thought to enter data was when my pain bothered me. By doing this it made my average pain look far higher than it actually is. Let's face it when your pain is low you are doing stuff and not thinking about entering data into your journal. My solution was to set a timer for every 90 minutes. Once I did that I was able to truly see how my pain changes. I know this is expensive but when I compare it to the hundreds of dollars I spend each month on health care I see it is a great investment. Just from learning that point injections don't work for me I was able to save $40 a month. I urge you to get this and I really hope it can help you like it helped me.

I have really appreciated having this app to track health vitals, medicines, symptoms. I had had surgery and it was invaluable to help me track when I'd last taken pain medications, symptoms that were more prominent and even run reports to look at trends, averages, etc. It is quite a powerful tool and I would recommend it to anyone. The one piece I would like to see improved would be the sleep tracking. Otherwise, quite happy and completely worth the investment!

As far as I've found, this is the best pain tracker out there. That said, it could use a few more features to improve it. 1) Add barometric pressure to weather data for migraineurs and people with joint pain; and 2) Allow deletion of a record in case of making a mistake when you've accidentally saved data. Otherwise, though, this app is quite good. I love how the reports allow me to view my stats in various ways -my pain specialist loves the reports, too! Great job!

This is nice and I love it! Easy to configure for any type illness or for general health stats.

I used to keep track of my pain on a calendar. I would skip days and symptoms because it was just a bother. This app is simple to use and it's very thorough! I love it!!!

It's complicated and has a lot of features to help you understand your pain, how you cope with pain and what type of conversation to have with your doctor about your pain. When presented with detailed information, your doctor can make a more informed and better decision regarding your care. The app is great.

This is a fantastic app for tracking pain. It is very extensive and also easy to use. The only issue I have is the many spelling errors I keep coming across. For spending $10 on this app you would think it would be more polished as far spelling and grammar goes. Other than that I love this app!

Great app, but no longer usable on my iPad. Crashes after Feb 25, 2016 update. Would greatly appreciate a quick fix.

I recently had a serious illness, and this app is very helpful and motivating during my recovery. 4/17/16. Great app keeps me motivated.10/8/16. 5 Star app.

I am so excited to begin using this app! I was overwhelmed with how to document my daily problems because of an autoimmune disease and this really puts everything into neat functional reports!

I've used this app since 2011 and continue to highly recommend it. It builds a comprehensive report that I can share with doctors and use to help me see long-term trends and make adjustments.

I got this because the other app I used to track my pain kept crashing. So far so good on this app. Lots of reports to use.

Wonderful program

I have tried many different apps to track my fibromyalgia, and Chiara malformation and this is the one! You can keep it as is or change and add things you need. I love it!!!! Thank you so much for making it!

Easy to use. Very helpful to keep track of pain levels new pains for use when visiting Dr.

I use this app every morning and evening to track the pain and fatigue of fibromyalgia. Then I use the report function to make a printed comparison report of the pain to show my doctor the results before and after taking a medication. DD

This app has helped me get everything documented. It marks times and dates of every post so if I forget my meds i can look at this app and see when the last transaction took place. Very easy to use and worth the money.

I love that there are a large variety of categories I can track. The report function really allows me to see trends in my pain levels.

Great app for tracking one or more pain areas and all contributing factors.

I've been using it for a number of years. I really like it for the most part. I wish the sliders for hours of sleep, time to fall asleep, and quality of sleep were more precise.

1. The reports can be very detailed or not. They are easy to customize. 2. The group behind this are very interested in bettering this app. Many things customers have asked for have been added. 3. This app has a thoughtful approach about what individuals with pain would want to manage, and it is easy enough to "turn off" things that you don't. 4. Only 4 stars because of a bit outdated user interface. This might bother some, but the app works so well that I can ignore it.

CPT is the most comprehensive and intuitive pain tracker app available. CPTs reports feature professional presentations acceptable to my healthcare team. If your serious about pain management and want to provide doctors and other providers with self-report data, then go for CPT Pro.

Great app. Really helps track the issues so that you can take the reports to your doctor. However, I wish it had a barometric meter included along with the weather application at NO cost. Other than that, it is fantastic.

I have downloaded several similar apps but Pain Tracker seems to be the best as far as ease of use and the ability to customize for each persons needs. So far it has exceeded my needs.

The best app I have found for tracking fibromyalgia pain. I have used it for several years and rely on the reports to take to my doctor.

It helps me with my doctors. They can see how my adrenal fatigue, orthostatic hypotension, dehydration , fibromyalgia and PTSD effect me chronic symptoms. Also medication they have me try. Thank you.

I am using this app to track and try to understand a very painful long-term side effect of cancer radiation treatment. This app is the most comprehensive and easy-to-use chronic pain tracker I've found. It tracks so many aspects of pain and things that might be related to pain (even automatically loading the weather where you are for each entry) that it might seem overwhelming at first. But the ability to drill down with custom tailored diaries and reports that can then be easily updated on-the-spot makes it all extremely manageable. It's already helped me and my care team move from "I dunno" to "Aha!" Amending or augmenting diary entries is extremely easy to do, as is adding narrative notes for each one. And the automatic data back up to the cloud is all important.

Love this app!

Looking for a way to track my fibromyalgia pain and this app goes above and beyond to do that. It's going to be so easy for me and my doctor to sit down now and have a game plan!

This app is glitchy & totally unreliable for maintaining any data you wish to record. I lost everything. Hopefully, they will fix this app cause it has promise.

I really do love this app and it’s very easy to use. However the fact that I can’t connect my phone and iPad together is very annoying to me. I give it five stars if they fix this feature.

I have been using this app to get information to my neurologist, neuro-opthomologist, and cardiologist. It has been an incredible tool for letting them know what has been going on with my health.

I love everything about this app, except for the canned, limited reports. I can customize my meds, pain, symptoms, and set up some custom templates. Let’s face it, we track weight only once a day and hopefully don’t have to think about it again. I also like the milestone markers for noting when certain changes happen like meds, doctors, and lifestyle. I make about 5 entries per day. After 5 months I have a really good idea of how everything works together in my body. Last week I made a fantastic discovery that taking two particular meds together increased my pain. By separating these by a few hours, life has become much more manageable. Now the reports. There are a paltry amount of reports which can give an overview but I’d like to see much more details. How about all medications by day or month. How many units of pain meds did I need in a period of time? How about line charts to show progression? I do like the histograms. And the comparison report is the most useful, when it works. If I do only 14 days, it usually runs. But can’t do a month or more. Reports should provide some user feedback when it times out. I could sit here for 30 minutes and it just keeps spinning but nothing happens. I do recommend the app though. Start tracking now and perhaps reporting will be improved soon.

The app never goes into edit mode. There is on way to get help to actually start using. I deleted the app but still had to pay for something I can’t use. Disappointed.
