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. Symptana 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, radiating pain, pain quality, triggers, and a note – on iPhone, from a widget, with Siri, or right on your Apple Watch.
See the trend
Clear pain curves – several body regions side by side if you like – and an 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
Traffic-light pain scale, body region via a body map, radiating pain, pain quality, triggers, and medication – all fields optional and immediately visible. Tabs per body region keep your most frequent spots at hand.
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.
Apple Watch, widgets & Siri
Log entries right on your wrist – including location and triggers, using the Digital Crown. Plus Home and Lock Screen widgets, a complication, and optional Siri shortcuts.
