Day notes

Sometimes the day is more than a number. Day notes are free-text entries pinned to a date — context the structured fields can't capture.

How to add

1. Log page → scroll to Notes (or Quick Log → Journal from the bottom nav).
2. Type. The note auto-saves as you go.

That's it. No formatting. No tags. Just text.

Where notes appear

• The Log page for that date.
• As pins on the weight chart — small markers above the dates you have notes on.
• In the dashboard's log history table — a pencil icon for dates with notes.
• Hover or tap a pin — see the note inline without leaving the chart.

The pinning is the point. When you see a sudden weight jump on March 12, hovering the pin reveals "stomach flu" — context immediately.

What to put in notes

There's no right answer. Common patterns:

• Why something is unusual — "Wedding weekend," "Stomach bug Day 3."
• Things that don't fit a symptom or measurement — "Slept poorly," "High stress at work."
• Free-form journaling — what you're thinking about your protocol, what's working, what's not.
• Doctor visit notes — "Endo bumped TSH target to 0.5–2.0," "Discussed switching from Tirzep to Reta."
• Compound timing experiments — "Tried Wednesday night dose to see if Saturday felt better."
• Coach / partner conversations — context for next time.

Your future self reads these. Specific is better than general.

Length

There's no limit. A note can be a single word ("vacation") or a multi-paragraph reflection. The chart pin shows the same indicator regardless of length.

Editing and deleting

Tap a note to edit. Clear all text to delete.

Past notes are accessible by navigating to that date with the date picker.

Disabling

If you don't use notes, disable them: Profile → Tracking → Journal → Disabled. The Notes section disappears from the Log page and the chart pins stop appearing.

How notes interact with everything else

• The AI assistant can read your notes. Asking "what did I write about my doctor visit" or "summarize my notes from the past month" works.
• Pattern insights don't read notes (the engine works on numeric series only). Notes are for human reading.
• Notes are NOT structured symptoms. If you find yourself writing "nausea level 7" repeatedly in notes, switch to a custom symptom — the engine can correlate symptoms but not free text.

Common questions

"Why isn't there a tagging system?" Tags get organized once and abandoned. Free text searches well, doesn't go stale, and matches how people actually write to themselves. If you want to find "all the days I mentioned travel," the search bar in the chat drawer can do it.

"Can I make a note for a day I haven't logged?" Yes — just navigate to that date and write. The day will count as having a note even if no other entries exist.

"Will my notes be used for AI training?" No. Your data is yours. Not used for any model training.

Privacy

Notes are some of the most personal data in the app — often more revealing than logged symptoms. Stored encrypted, against your account only, never used in cross-user analytics. Included in export and removed on deletion.
