Poo Keeper ◎ Log bowels & IBS 4+

Excellent App, Quick to Fix Bugs

User of 6 years. Grateful for the objective look at bowel health over the years that this provides. It is simple, straightforward, and gives all the info you need for tracking bowel habits. Export to CSV/XML allows graphing of your data if you want to see it. Adding an extra tier that would export data to Apple Health and/or graph it in the app itself would be a reasonable feature to consider for the less technical.

The price is fair for having a dedicated app: buy once, use it for life. It’s well worth the price to remove ad wait time once you’ve been using it for a while. And well worth it just for keeping bowel tracking photos separate from the rest of my life - even a hidden folder in the Photos app is asking for awkwardness, as there are too many opportunities to appear in places I don’t want them over the years (backups, imports to other devices, etc.). The peace of mind and organization is well worth it. And the app is still actively developed for bugs and new iOS updates. I appreciate that they haven’t tried switching to a ridiculous subscription model like so many other apps that don’t take substantial developer time on an ongoing basis. It’s fair, and it does the job.

Prior Review:

Long time user getting camera errors under iOS 18. Hope this is fixed soon. Been a great health app for tracking the not so glamorous but very important area of colon health. Definitely will update to 5 stars once this bug is fixed.

Great app

This is a great app that allows me to keep track of my gut health. I love that I can look at all my past tracking and review how I am doing. I do wish you could personalize it a little bit. Also a calendar that also may show your past logging. Even though it is a good app I think a little flare may make it a little bit more fun.

I have had other apps that help with keeping track of your gut health. They always had ways to also keep track of your moments you also go #1 as well. With advice as well on how to keep your times visiting the bathroom a lot better.

Overall a really great app just it would be nice to see some other things added as well. To personalize it just a little. Adding a calendar, #1 tracking as well also maybe adding some way of identifying how your bathroom business could be affecting your health. Maybe also adding some articles of food and drink advice to health keep a healthy gut as well.

I purchased the app to unlock all the benefits of the app thinking it will unlock much more. I again find the app really great it just would be nice to have just a little more for what your getting. Overall again a good app it helps me out.

Doctor likes it, and can get better images from native camera by uploading from album.

Great app for tracking for my gastroenterologist. We, though, would like it if the images were slightly better. Would it be possible if the camera could just access the device’s native camera or copy more of it’s features like focusing and making the image brighter and better rendered? If not that, could we have it use images from the device’s native photo album? We take a photo on the native camera, and then the app just pulls it from the album?

Updated 4/14: Cool, thanks for letting us know how to grab from album! Understood that the camera settings are on preset so the focus is nonadjustable, but images from the album can be used. Will look forward to the improvements. And thanks! Again, the doctor appreciates this kind of record keeping

Developer Response ,

You can select from existing photos in your album (do update to latest v1.8).

The camera in app is largely the same with the native camera, but with most settings with auto presets. Probably a thing lacking is the focus area (affects exposure and metering) — we will improve in future releases.
