Chronic itch interrupts sleep, derails focus, and is hard to convey at appointments — especially before a diagnosis. Log episodes in seconds — body zones, intensity, sleep impact, triggers, photos — and see when the itch really peaks, with reports ready for dermatology.

Chronic pruritus — persistent itch from any cause, including prurigo nodularis, neuropathic itch, aquagenic pruritus, and the chronic itch still waiting on a diagnosis — is exhausting in a way that’s difficult to convey. It wakes you at 3 a.m., breaks your focus mid-meeting, and varies in ways you can’t quite explain. Showing severity, timing, and the sleep cost is what moves a workup forward.
The app makes that record low-effort: an episode in seconds with zones and an intensity slider, sleep impact when itch costs you nights, photos, triggers from heat and sweat to fabrics and foods, and medications and treatment courses. Time-of-day patterns build themselves from your entries, so when your dermatologist asks how things have been, the answer is charted — and exportable as a clean PDF or CSV. An Apple Watch or Wear OS companion app is included for quick one-tap entries from your wrist.
This app is a personal tracking journal — not a medical device, and not a substitute for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.
Features
-
An episode in seconds
Body zones and itch intensity with a quick slider, sleep impact when itch costs you nights, and photos to document what your skin is doing — fast enough to log while it's happening.
-
When does it really peak?
Time-of-day patterns build automatically from your entries, so the 3 a.m. reality shows up in the record even when it never shows up in the exam room.
-
Concrete, for dermatology
Insights trend intensity, sleep impact, zones, and triggers over time — with medications and treatment courses alongside — and PDF/CSV reports give dermatology and allergy visits something solid to start from.
