## Review summary

Users appreciate the app's flexibility in tracking various symptoms and moods, its custom symptom feature, useful graphs, and user-friendly design. The integration with Health Connect is also well-received. However, common issues include forced online login, inability to save entries reliably, limited graph customization, missing condition options, and absence of wearable integrations. Some updates caused crashes or login failures. Overall, while the app is helpful for symptom tracking, users desire improvements in data input flexibility, offline access, and broader device support.

### Pros

- Provides custom symptom entry, accommodating rare medical conditions.
- Offers graphs and logs for visualizing health data and progress.
- User-friendly interface praised by multiple users.
- Supports integration with Health Connect for cross-platform data synchronization.

### Cons

- App requires mandatory login and does not allow offline use, causing privacy concerns.
- Issues with saving symptoms, medications, and profile information reported by several users.
- Graph features limited; users cannot change symptoms shown or view more than five at a time.
- Problems with calendar access and app crashes after updates noted.
- Lack of integration with wearables like Fitbit and difficulties recording sleep or food triggers.
- Limited condition list missing some users' primary conditions.
- No way to update single symptoms individually, only all at once.
