User Reviews

OstoBuddy is praised for robust ostomy output and supply tracking with helpful reminders and easy data sharing with clinicians. The top requested improvements are integrated hydration and diet tracking, including urine/liquid intake, to better correlate with output, plus ongoing feature enhancements.
Pros
  • Robust tracking of ostomy output and appliance changes, helping daily management.
  • Reliable reminders and inventory tracking that help me reorder supplies before they run out.
  • Easy sharing of data with clinicians via copy/paste or screenshots.
  • Well-designed app that users feel is improving with updates and highly valued by ostomates.
Cons
  • Missing integrated hydration tracking and a built-in food/beverage diary (and the ability to log liquids) to correlate with output.
  • Urine (liquid) output tracking is not available, a frequently requested feature.
  • Broad feature requests indicate a desire for more intake-related tracking and diagnostics within the app.

It’s a bit clunky, but I’m finding it incredibly useful for tracking output and appliance changes and use it multiple times per day since my surgery. Here are a number of suggestions to make it more useful: Allow ordering of Supplies category. Using a 2-piece, I prefer not to have pouches at the top and wafers at the bottom. Allow for searches. Allow copying of supplies. Add link metadata field for supplies. It would great if one could enter the part number and lookup the rest of the information but I know this is a big ask. Allow supplies to be archived, but not deleted (and unarchived). Allow adding of supplies from within the usage screen. Sometimes I want to try a sample but have forgotten to add it as a supply item. Provide the ability to export information. To is would be very helpful for dr. visits. Usage Output Supplies Allow exporting of pictures. Do not require Face ID for each entry - change to maybe once every 15 minutes. Fix the bug that has text overlapping in the settings. If I see user input being considered I’ll gladly donate. Just found a major bug - if you use the last of a supply item, it no longer shows on any of the prior usages. The supply must always be greater than one for it to display. Update: I reached out to the developer through the app and their response has been terrific. They considered my comments and are implementing no several of them.

This app helps keep me on track with changing my appliance, keeping up with supplies, output, and skin condition. I don’t know what I would do without it!!

Not only does it remind me when its time to change, customizable, but it keeps a count on my supplies and reminds me to reorder those when long before i run low 😃
