Flare - Chronic Pain Tracker

September is Pain Awareness Month. We're collecting short stories from people who live with chronic pain — read them, or add your own, at flarelog.app/stories.

Built by someone who spent months tracking his own condition in a spreadsheet because nothing else felt right.

If you've been dismissed, doubted, or told to wait it out, this app is your evidence. A quiet, structured way to document your symptoms and walk into your next appointment with real data instead of a half-remembered list.

Flare works for fibromyalgia, arthritis, migraine, endometriosis, back pain, pelvic pain, nerve pain -- and any condition you want to track.

WHAT YOU CAN TRACK

• Pain, fatigue, stiffness, brain fog, or any symptom you want to add
• Severity on a named five-level scale (None to Severe), never "3/10"
• Medications, dosages, and medication courses with dose changes
• Treatments (physical therapy, injections, procedures)
• Provider visits and follow-ups
• Day notes with quick suggestions to capture context fast

LOG ON YOUR TERMS

• Log whenever you need to, no fixed schedule, no guilt
• Each entry is timestamped to the minute
• Tap a cell to record, press Log to add another entry anytime

WHAT YOU CAN DO WITH IT

• See your history in a scrollable, color-coded timeline
• Spot patterns across weeks and months at a glance
• See whether weather seems to matter -- Flare quietly compares your ratings with local pressure changes (optional, approximate location only)
• See what changed on each medication course, and choose which courses count
• See when your symptoms peak with a time-of-day heatmap
• Discover which symptoms appear together
• Generate PDF reports formatted for appointments
• Export an AI-friendly file and share it with your AI of choice
• Export raw CSV data for your own analysis
• Back up and restore your data anytime

FLARE PRO Monthly or annual subscription (both with a free trial), or a one-time lifetime purchase. Unlocks trend analysis, weather insights, course impact, visit snapshots, suggested appointment questions, and PDF / CSV / AI exports.

PRIVACY FIRST

• No account required
• No ads
• Your symptoms, notes, and history never leave your device
• Weather insights are optional, off by default, and use only an approximate area -- never your precise location
