Pain changes over time – memory doesn't always keep up
Pain changes over days and weeks, but recalling the exact course of it in conversation is often hard. Schmerztagebuch helps you capture observations as they happen, instead of relying on memory at your next appointment.
How it works
Log your pain
One tap on the pain scale (0–10), optionally body region, pain quality, triggers, and a note – typed or dictated.
See the trend
A clear pain trend chart and entry list – viewable, editable, and deletable at any time.
Bring a summary along
A factual PDF report for any date range you choose, ready for your next conversation.
Key benefits
Fast logging
Pain scale, body region (13 regions via a body map), pain quality, triggers, and medication – all fields optional and immediately visible, nothing hidden behind menus.
Clear trends
A pain trend chart and entry list present your own entries neutrally and traceably.
Reports & export
A factual PDF report for any date range, plus export as JSON or CSV and restore – your data stays portable.
Reminders
Optional reminders that skip themselves if you've already logged an entry in that time window – no health data in the notification itself.
Multiple languages
Fully usable in German and English.
Intelligent features (optional)
Observations from your own entries, summarized in plain language – locally by default, with Apple Intelligence on your device, or, after separate consent, via Apple Private Cloud Compute. Every output shows how it was produced.
Your health data belongs to you.
Schmerztagebuch processes your entries on your iPhone by default. This app has no server of its own and no user account.
- Local storage and processing by default – choose Apple Health or a purely on-device store.
- No registration, no email address, no password required.
- Your diary data is never stored on aix-hsg.de servers – this website never receives your entries.
- Optional Apple services (Apple Intelligence, Private Cloud Compute) only after explicit, revocable-at-any-time consent.
- Settings can be changed at any time – including complete deletion of all data with one tap.
- Transparent labeling whenever a single feature could send data off your device.
Optional intelligent features
Apple Intelligence and Apple Private Cloud Compute are two distinct, both optional tiers – explained without technical overstatement:
- Everything runs locally by default – all core features remain fully usable even without Apple Intelligence.
- Additional features (e.g. plain-language observations) are only available on compatible devices.
- Used only after you activate it – never automatically.
- Availability depends on device, language, region, and Apple system version.
- No medical diagnosis, risk assessment, or treatment recommendation – not even from the intelligent features.

Frequently asked questions
Where is my data stored?
On your iPhone by default – choose Apple Health or a purely on-device store. This app has no server of its own.
Do I need an account?
No. Schmerztagebuch works entirely without registration, an email address, or a password.
Can I export my data?
Yes, any time, as a JSON or CSV file via iOS's native share sheet, plus restore from a JSON export.
Does the app replace medical advice?
No. Schmerztagebuch is a documentation and self-organization tool, not a medical device. It does not provide diagnoses and does not replace a medical examination or advice.
What happens when I use Apple Intelligence?
Optional features can use the Apple model available on your device to summarize your own entries in plain language. This runs entirely on your device, you turn it on yourself, and every output shows how it was produced.
Does the app work without internet?
Yes. Core features – logging, history, reports, export – work fully offline.
Which languages are supported?
German and English, fully.
What does the app cost?
Version 1.0 has no paid features and no in-app purchases.
