What is Zebra?
Zebra is an iPhone symptom tracker for POTS, EDS/hEDS, Fibromyalgia, dysautonomia, and overlapping invisible illness symptoms. It helps you track patient-entered history and turn it into proof for doctor appointments.
Who is Zebra for?
It is built for people managing POTS, dysautonomia, EDS/hEDS, Fibromyalgia, Long COVID, ME/CFS, and overlapping symptoms that are hard to explain from memory in specialist appointments.
Is Zebra a POTS symptom tracker?
Yes. Zebra can be used as a POTS symptom tracker on iPhone for upright symptoms, orthostatic vitals, hydration, salt, medications, flares, and appointment notes.
What does Zebra track?
Zebra tracks daily flares, symptoms, medications, salt, water, orthostatic vitals, triggers, notes, appointment context, and doctor-ready PDF reports.
Can Zebra help prepare for appointments?
Yes. Zebra is built to help you prepare for appointments by keeping patient-entered history organized, showing patterns over time, and exporting a doctor-ready report you can review before a specialist visit.
What should I track before an appointment?
Start with the details that are hardest to remember under pressure: recent flares, top symptoms, medication changes, salt and water context, orthostatic vitals if relevant, functional impact, and questions you do not want to forget.
How is Zebra different from a generic symptom tracker app?
Zebra is built for chronic illness tracking and appointment preparation rather than generic wellness streaks. It keeps symptoms, flares, orthostatic vitals, medications, salt, water, triggers, and notes in one timeline so the history is easier to review later.
Can Zebra help with EDS, dysautonomia, Fibromyalgia, Long COVID, or ME/CFS?
Yes. Zebra is designed for overlapping chronic illness patterns where symptoms, triggers, medications, notes, and appointment context are hard to summarize from memory.
Why use Zebra instead of Notes or a spreadsheet?
Notes and spreadsheets start blank. Zebra gives symptom tracking structure, keeps orthostatic vitals beside daily context, and turns patient-entered history into a report you can review before a specialist visit.
What if I cannot track every day?
You do not have to track perfectly for Zebra to be useful. Missed days are normal with chronic illness. A partial flare entry, medication note, or symptom check-in can still help preserve what changed.
Will Zebra make my doctor believe me?
Zebra cannot promise how any clinician will respond. It can help you walk in with a clearer patient-entered history, fewer details rebuilt from memory, and a doctor-ready report that is easier to review than scattered notes.
How does Zebra help with appointment preparation?
Zebra keeps patient-entered symptom history, orthostatic vitals, medications, and notes in one place so you can review what changed and export a doctor-ready report before a specialist visit.
Where is Zebra data stored?
App health data is stored on your iPhone and may sync through your personal iCloud account, depending on Apple/iCloud settings and the current app build. Zebra does not require a Zebra account or run a separate Zebra health-data server.
Does Zebra diagnose or treat anything?
No. Zebra does not diagnose, treat, or provide medical advice. It helps you organize your history for care conversations.
What does Premium include?
The free tier includes core tracking and 30 days of history. Premium unlocks unlimited history, doctor-ready PDF report export, and the full orthostatic archive. The app paywall is built around a 7-day free trial for eligible new subscribers; confirm the current Apple purchase sheet before subscribing.
Is Zebra available on Android?
Not yet. Zebra is currently built for iPhone and available on the Apple App Store.
Can I use Zebra before I am diagnosed?
Yes. Zebra can help you track symptoms, flares, and appointment notes before or after a diagnosis. It does not diagnose conditions or replace medical care.
Can I export a doctor report?
Yes. Zebra can turn your tracked history into a doctor-ready PDF report with symptoms, flares, medications, salt, water, orthostatic vitals, triggers, notes, and appointment context.
Is Zebra a fitness app?
No. Zebra is not a fitness app or streak-based wellness app. It is built for invisible illness tracking and appointment preparation.
