Mello: Gastroparesis Tracker

The gastroparesis tracker built for slow stomachs: log meals by texture in seconds, track your symptom trend, see what helps, and bring a clear report to your GI doctor.

Mello is a calm, fast tracker made specifically for people living with gastroparesis (delayed gastric emptying) — not a generic food diary.

WHY MELLO IS DIFFERENT • Gastroparesis-native: log meals by texture (liquid → puree → soft → solid), fat, fiber and portion — the things that actually affect a slow stomach. No calorie counting, and no FODMAP logic (that's the wrong model for gastroparesis). • Gastric-ease analysis: every meal gets an on-device "how easily this empties" score, so you can spot gentle vs. heavy meals at a glance. • Symptom Score built in: rate the symptoms that define gastroparesis — nausea/vomiting, fullness and early satiety, bloating — weekly, plus a 30-second daily check-in, and watch your trend over time.

LOG IN SECONDS • One-tap meal templates for the 6–8 small meals a day you actually eat. • Symptom logging that auto-links to your most recent meal. • Water with a daily hydration goal, weight, blood glucose, bowel (Bristol), stress and sleep. • Back-date anything — log this morning's meal this afternoon.

SEE WHAT HELPS • Safe / Caution / Trigger foods list, grown automatically from your own log. • "Better days vs worse days" insights linking sleep, stress and hydration to your symptoms. • When-symptoms-hit time-of-day breakdown and weight-trend safety watch.

EATING OUT AGAIN • Menu Scan (Pro): snap any menu and Mello flags every dish against YOUR safe and trigger foods — plus the cues that matter for a slow stomach (fried, creamy, raw). Processed entirely on your phone; the photo is never uploaded. • A shareable dining card explains small portions and gentle preparation to the server, so you don't have to.

BUILT FOR YOUR DOCTOR • Generate a monthly Tolerance Report: symptom trend, meal-tolerance matrix, safe foods & suspected triggers, nourishment check, weight trend, medication timing, and a one-page summary with suggested questions. • Export it as a PDF to bring to your GI appointment.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Your meal and symptom logs stay on your device and sync through your own private iCloud. Meal photos never leave your phone. • Only an anonymized summary is sent — and only when you choose to generate a report.

MELLO PRO • Free — genuinely usable: log everything, your Safe/Caution/Trigger foods, the "are you eating enough?" check, Safety red flags, insights and trends, 30 days of history, and a full monthly Tolerance Report for your doctor. • Pro ($5.99/month or $39.99/year, 7-day free trial): Menu Scan for every restaurant menu, per-food deep-dives (when does a food sit well?), med trials (is a new medication actually working?), your complete history beyond 30 days, and PDF export. Every Pro feature has a free taste — first menu scan each month, your top food's deep-dive, and your first med trial are free.

Mello is a wellness and self-tracking tool. It does not diagnose, treat, or provide medical advice. Always consult your clinician about your symptoms and treatment.
