Doesn’t work

Tried 3x to log on. First time said my network wasn’t working (not the case) and second and third time wouldn’t allow me to finger drag signature so you end up being stuck. I deleted and redownloaded but same.
Needs a little work

I love that this app asks the questions that I don’t seem to be asked by anyone, with symptoms that have not been communicated to me as being related to endo. I love that I have the ability to track my day in general and options to track specific moments. With that being said, half of the time the app does not log my entries and does not count anything toward my tracking history. I would love to see a trend section to compile all of the symptoms experienced so I can communicate these experiences with my doctor. Other than that, it’s a very good app.
Finally!

I’ve tried multiple endo/symptom tracking apps and they all fell short of my expectations. I’ve only had this app two days and it’s already so much more useful and intuitive than any other app I’ve tried for tracking my endo symptoms. It’s so encouraging to know that there is actually research being done based on info from this app too. I rarely go to the doctor and I’m terrible at conveying the severity of my symptoms when I do go, I think this will be an incredibly helpful tool.
Great Options

So I haven’t used the app for super long but so far what I’ve seen is great for tracking cause and affect of certain foods or activities in your own experience with endo. I’ve only known about mine since about April this year (2018). But I’ve been struggling with symptoms for years now. This is a great way to get awareness out for endo but also great for your own health to track what’s flaring up and what might have caused it.
Comprehensive

This app is really comprehensive with symptoms and it’s easy to use. It’s also exciting to be part of research to find answers for endometriosis.
Finally an app for endometriosis symptoms!

I have been using a series of 4-5 period tracking apps, trying to find ways to track and document my symptoms of endometriosis, and finally there is one good app that has wonderful arrays of options for documenting. As a bonus, it's a way to take research on the suffering of endometriosis, something that is sorely needed, given the vacuum of reliable data on endometriosis. Superb. Bravo!
