SoftaSymptom tracker
A symptom tracker built for perimenopause
Most symptom trackers assume you know exactly what to log and where. Softa starts from a body map, because half of perimenopause is not knowing what you're even feeling — let alone what to call it.
Log through a body map, not a form
Tap where you feel it — chest, joints, head, skin — and Softa suggests the symptoms that actually show up there. Rate severity on a simple ring instead of typing a paragraph. Most logs take under ten seconds, which matters, because a tracker you find tedious is a tracker you stop using within a week.
50+ symptoms, including the ones other apps forget
Hot flashes and mood swings are on every list. Softa's catalog also includes the symptoms women report constantly in perimenopause communities but rarely see on a standard checklist:
- Itching in the ears or skin, with no rash
- Cold flashes — the less-discussed opposite of a hot flash
- Frozen shoulder, often mistaken for an unrelated injury
- The specific 3–4am wake-up pattern, distinct from general insomnia
- Weight and metabolism changes that don't track with diet or exercise changes
Your own words, when the list doesn't fit
Not every symptom has a name yet. Softa lets you log something in your own words when nothing in the catalog matches — because a real symptom you can't categorize is still worth tracking, and shouldn't get lost because it didn't fit a dropdown.
Triggers and activities, without a wall of chips
Alongside symptoms, Softa surfaces a short, relevant set of trigger and activity suggestions — coffee, alcohol, poor sleep, a workout, a stressful day — instead of one giant list you have to scroll through every time. The suggestions adapt to what you've logged before, so the second week is faster than the first.
Offline-first: a log never gets lost
Log a symptom on the subway with no signal, in an elevator, anywhere. Entries queue locally and sync the moment you're back online — nothing is ever silently dropped because the network wasn't there.
What happens to a log after you save it
Every entry feeds two things: your own pattern view (so you can see what's trending, not just what happened today) and, once there's enough history, Softa's trigger-detective feature, which looks for things that consistently show up next to a symptom. Logging isn't the end goal — it's the raw material for finding something real.
Questions
Do I have to log every day?
No. Softa's own principle is that progress only grows — there's no streak to break and no guilt copy for a missed day. Log when something happens; that's enough for the patterns to build over time.
Can I edit or delete a log after saving it?
Yes — open any entry from your day view and edit the severity, time, or delete it outright. Nothing is locked once it's saved.
Does logging a symptom diagnose anything?
No. Softa helps you see what you're noticing and how often — it's not a diagnostic tool, and it never tells you that you have a specific condition. See our medical disclaimer for the full detail.
What happens to my symptom data?
It's used to show you your own patterns and, if you opt in, to power the trigger-detective feature. It's never sold and never shared with advertisers — see our privacy promise.
