GutLog

Simple and private bowel movement tracker.

What it does

I’ve been working on a small app to help with bowel tracking - something I wanted for myself, but figured it might help others here too. It’s free, has no ads, and is fully private (everything stays on your device unless you choose to export).

    Hey HN, after the app I actually used to track my period wanted me to log in and save my data in the cloud, I decided to write my own.

So that is the result of my work - a simple design and the data is only saved on the smartphone.

This globe is probably my favourite so far: https://jameshard.ing/pilot/globes/all If you’ve got ideas for other graphs or ways to show this kind of data, I’d love to hear them!

    I was the main contributor to workout.lol, an open-source fitness app to easily build a workout routine. The project had traction (1.4k GitHub stars, 95 forks, ~20K visits/month), but was eventually sold due to video licensing hurdles. The new owner stopped maintaining it, and the repo went abandoned. Over the next 9 months, I sent 15 emails to try to save it : no replies. Feature requests & issues were ignored. The community was left with a "broken" tool let's say. I couldn't just let it die So I built the new version from scratch with the same open-source spirit, but a better…
