PoopLog (v. 2.02) Разработано Kefsco |
PoopLog is a free application that allows you to track your bowel movements using the Bristol Stool Scale on your Android powered device. Once you record the type of bowel movement, volume, and time, PoopLog allows you to attach a note, attach a photo, and even allows you to share any part of your entry with other installed applications (such as Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, SMS, Email, etc..). PoopLog also features an extensive reporting option which will allow you to export your PoopLog to a text file for easy analysis by a health practitioner.
*NEW*: PoopLog now has the ability to log a pain/discomfort level from 0-10. This option is disabled by default, but can be enabled via Settings > Defaults.
!! UPDATE ALERT !! I am working on and will soon be releasing a large update that will include more logging options, charting, and trends!
Stay tuned to @kefsco, or kefsco.com for any news!
Frequently Asked Questions
Why develop PoopLog? Is it a joke application? I was out of work, and on disability for 7+ months due to severe bowel problems.. I'm a geek, so I started tracking everything, even my bowel movements. I figured others might want to do the same, so I gave birth to PoopLog. While it can be fun to track and tweet, PoopLog was originally developed to assist with tracking bowel movements for easy analysis by a health practitioner.
I can really attach a photo to my PoopLog? Why? This wasn't an original feature of PoopLog, and won't become available until PoopLog2 is released. For some reason, this is the most requested feature from my users so I had no choice but to include this great feature! When you take your first photo, you will be asked if you would like your PoopLog photos hidden from the Android gallery. This option is configurable through the PoopLog application settings.
Why does PoopLog require install permissions? The only permissions required are to read/write to the external storage device (ie: microsd), and to access the camera. This is required exclusively to import/export generated reports and read/write PoopLog photos. PoopLog doesn't connect to the internet, doesn't obtain your device's identity or contacts, and doesn't transmit any information out from your device to anyone, ever, unless you select the share option for a PoopLog entry.
Why can't I share my PoopLog directly to the Facebook for Android application? The Facebook for Android application contains a flaw where it believes you are attempting to share a link, rather than share text. This issue appears to affect every Android developer, including myself. For now, you can workaround this issue by using the 'Copy to Clipboard' button. Once you do this, you can manually open your Facebook application and paste the text from your clipboard with a long-press on any text-field. Hopefully the Facebook for Android developers will fix this soon.
Why does it take so long to open an attached PoopLog photo? I've heard reports of attached PoopLog images taking upwards of 30+ seconds to open. I am not sure what is causing the latency, but will look into it and resolve it in an upcoming version.
What features can be expected in future versions of PoopLog? I am playing with the ability to geotag entries, allowing users to view a map/trail of their PoopLog. Also, I am working on implementing some sort of label/tagging system in order to sort entries into multiple custom categories (ie: smell, contents..). You can follow developments on Twitter via @kefsco, and if you have any suggestions, comments, ideas, or any feedback at all, email feedback@kefsco.com.
Is PoopLog open-source? Currently, no. If I ever get around to cleaning up my code, my goal is to release it for anyone to use.
Will PoopLog ever be an iPhone/iPad/iOS app? No.
I hope that you find PoopLog useful and fun, as silly as it may be.

[2013-01-11] A Google User: Funny as This is hilarious! |
|
[2012-11-29] A Google User: OK, poop is coming out now. About the only things I post to Twitter anymore are my log entries. I'm a Twitter sh*tter. |
|
[2012-11-26] A Google User: Please add a calendar! I wish there was a calendar to see how often I go in a week or month instead of the view list provided. |
|
[2012-11-26] A Google User: Needs improvement, but great! Really great interface. Easy to use. App would achieve 5 star rating if you could add a colour log. It would also be fantastic if the app could analyse the stool and suggest proper eating patterns etc. Otherwise, my favourite of the lot :) |
|
[2012-11-20] A Google User: Awesome Works great! (Its so fun logging your poo) :) |
|
[2012-11-16] A Google User: Its o rite Its good defo recomendo |
|
[2012-11-05] A Google User: Pooper Love this app. Didn't realize how irregular I was until I started using it. Only downfall is my poop pics can be seen in my ”all photos” gallery. Yikes!. |
|
[2012-11-01] A Google User: LMAO!!! Love this app, just for the sheer brilliance of the "shock & awe" factor you get when you've sent one of these unexpectedly to a friend! |
|
[2012-10-18] A Google User: Nice Helps keep track of digestion lol |
|
[2012-10-17] A Google User: Good but... Its a good app for poo detail but im looking for frequency patterns and theres a better app out there.for that. Would still reccommend this app though. |
|
[2012-10-09] A Google User: Kevin Needs to add toilet seat temperature |
|
[2012-10-09] A Google User: 5stars just for the name lol |
|
[2012-10-06] A Google User: Super Simple! Logs your motions quickly and easily. UI really easy. Wouldn't mind a few graphs and a summary for reporting. Exporting & using Excel. Agree with others here about being able to log/see more details. Other than that I love it! Very helpful for my Crohns. |
|
[2012-09-25] A Google User: Hilarious! Great idea. I'm going to install it on my wife's phone, log a few, and confront her with it! |
|
[2012-09-23] A Google User: Quite nice Simple yet effective. Looking forward to the upcoming CSV functionality. |
|
[2012-09-23] A Google User: Add photo You really need to be able to add a photo from the gallery. Sometimes I have to snap and go, I just can't fill out the log on the pot.. |
|
[2012-09-23] A Google User: A good idea. Hilarious as an added extra Bravo |
|
[2012-09-19] A Google User: I only wish there was an option to change the icon pic. I don't like the picture of turd on a book. |
|
[2012-09-16] A Google User: I never have to stop And think when the doctor asks when was the last time I pooped? |
|
[2012-09-13] A Google User: Great This has been a great /useful app. As a nurse I suggest this app for anyone suffering with IBS or anyone who is irregular rather it be Family, Patients or yourself. Just wish you could add more than 1 person. Other than that EXCELLENT JOB. |
|
[2012-09-09] A Google User: Good to have I have bad digestive problems. The doctors are always asking me poop questions I've never given much thought. Now, I can show them. As ridiculous as this app sounds, if you're like me, it really is useful. Works well on my Motorola Atrix. |
|
[2012-08-26] A Google User: Best poop logger Its simpley the best. It done as it should be done |
|
[2012-08-25] A Google User: Poop log developer is a jerk and some features don't work I emailed the creator of poop log about inconsistencies in his app . he says pictures of Poo will not go into your gallery well if you have an android they do go directly to your gallery when I notified him about this problem he suggested that I learn how to create my own poop app which I found very rude and exposed his insecurities.all in all I think poop log is a great idea but the developer should learn to take some constructive criticism. After replied to my email I was tempted to delete his app. |
|
[2012-08-15] A Google User: Additional type How about disappointing fart? I've had two if those and don't know how to log it (no pun intended). |
|
[2012-08-15] A Google User: Love it! So helpful for when my doc asks if I've been regular! And good for me to see if I need to be eating more veggies! |
|
[2012-08-15] A Google User: Nice! Great style! Any chance of a bar chart option in the view log section? So I can see the volumes of the different types over a time period? (Over a week, over the last month...) |
|
[2012-08-14] A Google User: Super! Awesome app! As a Nurse... I truly appreciate this and its importance. Adding a Calendar type view would be great. |
|
[2012-08-13] A Google User: Galaxy S3 Upset I can't share my PoopLog on Facebook. |
|
[2012-08-12] A Google User: Revolutionary!!! Should be App of the year!!! |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Finally! Finally i can share my experiences with the world. A great app. Suggestions: a scale for smell, but also a scale for relief... |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Tablet Tablet comptability please! Doesn't download onto the Nexus 7. And I spend more time with it than my phone in the bathroom. |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Very funny You should add a vlog in real-time.. common ppl you know it's a good idea what could be better than a poop chat room |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Great Add smell, color, wipe style |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Nice Add smell, duration, color, and the ability to edit an entry. |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Love this! Just adding it for awkward dinner table talk. |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: BEST. APP. EVER. I've been waiting for something this awesome for years! |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Location Location Location Can we add geotagging so we know where we have pooped. Plus a toilet rating would be good. |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Good app! Very useful for Doc appt...I wish it had a calendar! Respect |
|
[2012-08-11] A Google User: Best app ever!!! Just awesome!! My six year old son and I love it...wish it had color and odor options as well...but still great!!! |
|
[2012-07-31] A Google User: No Stupid. whats the point! |
|
[2012-07-25] A Google User: good. butt... great app. no complaints but for some reason it keeps uninstalling every few days. no other new app does this. anybody else have this problem? galaxy s |
|
[2012-07-24] A Google User: Needed I use it everyday. A real help, I have cancer and its another way I can track my health. Thanks. |
|
[2012-07-21] A Google User: Move buttons This app is great! But after you log something the first option should be 'back to menu' and the LAST option should be 'share this poop'! Once that is changed around its absolutely 5 stars! More people want the main menu than to share their poop experience! |
|
[2012-07-18] A Google User: Fanny Flangerton Found it great as my poo has been a bit off lately, a bit green in colour with brown blobs in it. Leaves splats up side of the toilet inside, stinks out whole house and smells like farts and mouldy milk. Great to show doctor to explain my problem. Fab app. Found it great that you can share on Facebook and by text. |
|
[2012-07-13] A Google User: Helpful App! I can't think of anything I would change. Smell is not needed for a doc to determine issues as it changes based on food eaten, stress, or plumbing differences such as RNY or other surgery. I needed this to track IBD/IBS symptoms before a colonoscopy. Extremely useful for recognizing patterns, though if you track your food intake concurrently, results would be that much greater. |
|
[2012-07-10] A Google User: Great This app is actually useful and easy to use! |
|
[2012-07-08] A Google User: useful app! but needs a few more things... definitely add smell (even if it's a number range) add color (poop varies in color - light brown, dark brown, green, pale, blood, with food pieces, etc.) the field where you add a description could stand to be formatting a little differently (such as being able to hit "enter" to make a list, rather than typing a long line, as that makes it more difficult to edit) since our poop is an indicator or our health i think this app needs just a more things to make it even better. |
|
[2012-07-07] A Google User: Work very well My doctor told me to follow how many times I when after my surgery. It tells give options on which type you are doing. It was much easter then writing it down. |
|
[2012-06-23] A Google User: Great but.. It would be nice if it was named something a little less obvious. A few of my buddies like to mess with my phone and they're gonna give me a lot of funny looks. |
|
[2012-06-22] A Google User: Amazing app I'm on methadone for severe pain. Methadone makes you really constapated..and my Dr.said to keep record of my bowel movements and now I can and it be organized. |
|
[2012-06-19] A Google User: Great app! Thank you dev for making such a great app! And even ad free! |
|
[2012-06-13] A Google User: Genius I can't believe someone had a eureka moment and created this, now I have something to do on the loo. Much appreciated I love it |
|
[2012-06-01] A Google User: Photos will not hide I've hidden the photos in the gallery from the settings on pooplog but they remain visible fix this and its a 5 star app |
|
[2012-05-30] A Google User: Thanks!! My nutritionist wants to know about my poop. |
|
[2012-05-25] A Google User: LMAO Forgot 2 important factors: 1. Color 2. Sink or float |
|
[2012-05-25] A Google User: Awesome Was looking for something like this to keep track of my bms!!!!!! |
|
[2012-05-17] A Google User: My beliefs I belive there should be warnings and tips on diet when a pattern of unhealthy bowel movements occur |
|
[2012-05-02] A Google User: Needed this I was looking for a generic tracking/logging app to use for this purpose, looks like I'm not alone! Some additional characteristics worth adding: presence of blood, presence of mucus, urgency, and incomplete evacuation. |
|
[2012-04-16] A Google User: Great app! Bowel movements are very indicative of health, and this app is great! Some requests: - "days ago" to change based on midnight, instead of time of day. - add color scale green to brown. - add blood indicator/level. - dual composition (40% type 3, 60% type 4,etc.) - edit logs. |
|
[2012-04-15] A Google User: Poop Log It okay to keep track but not really that good |
|
[2012-04-14] A Google User: Nice stable app:) Haven't found a thing wrong with it:) |
|
[2012-04-07] A Google User: This app is really what I need! I suffer from constipation and the doctors always want to know the last time I've gone. Thanks for this app! |
|
[2012-04-06] A Google User: Almost perfect Great app for logging bowel motions, just needs to add smell category and be able to view notes in log then will be 5 stars. |
|
[2012-04-05] A Google User: Great app! I suffer from bladder problems, and my urologist always wants to know about my bowel habits too at clinic visits because bowel habits also impact on the bladder. I'm also on a lot of medication that can cause constipation, so this is a really useful tool to share with my doctors. Clean and user-friendly UI, and very easy to use. I think possibly the ability to add photos is a step too far, but hey, each to their own! Very useful app, and top implementation - 5*! |
|
[2012-03-27] A Google User: PERFECT! Specially if you poop irregularly! Excellent way to track when you poop so you can tell your doctor how often you poop! |
|
[2012-03-25] A Google User: No caring for sharing |
|
[2012-03-24] A Google User: LOL! LolololololZ so funneh! |
|
[2012-03-18] A Google User: Excellent app Useful app after abdominal surgery to keep track of bowel movements. |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Holy crap! (No pun intended) This little app is a great tool. I suffer from ibs, and the doctor wants a constant diary of my bm so I can get proper treatment. I would give it a five star if like others said, could be more discrete, add colour of bm, mucus, blood. Also a choice to log days of constapation would be good. That way it could look consistant when looking at records and not have it look like I didnt remember to record things for days. Also a calander view would put this app on top. |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: Great app I love this app! Is there any way for you to update it so there is an hourly graph for the data being entered? |
|
[2012-03-13] A Google User: This is Great! Useful....to some of us...or many, rather. Award for best widget & best app name (it fits). Thx to dev! HTC TB |
|
[2012-03-06] A Google User: Great app Helps track "system performance" for both celiac and diverticulitis. Did not know Bristol Myers before this app, so helpful. |
|
[2012-03-05] A Google User: Umm Am I the only one who understands what this is for? :0 am I the only one who finds this kind of...weird...and personal...plus disgusting... |
|
[2012-03-05] A Google User: Great app I'd give it 5 stars if it were more discreet. I keep mine in a folder with a few other health-related apps, so its not too bad, but still embarassing if someone happens to look through your apps. I agree with others that a calendar view would be convenient, and also indicators for color, blood, etc. Above all, it does its job well, just could use a few tweaks. |
|
[2012-02-23] A Google User: Awesome Mt4g |
|
[2012-02-21] A Google User: Great app. Has a simple interface and it just works. |
|
[2012-02-16] A Google User: excellent work no glitches. Up to date. does everything I need . thank you |
|
[2012-02-09] A Google User: Easy to use I do wish it had a calender though. |
|
[2012-02-08] A Google User: An app made for complete awesomness How amazing... this is incredible. I love this! Sharing my poop info just became easyer! |
|
[2012-02-06] A Google User: Love it! Only prob i have is, i set a pass key cuz i started datin a new guy who started goin thru my apps. Talk about embarrassing. But now it wont let me in. Says its wrong, but i always use the same key. So becareful. |
|
[2012-01-27] A Google User: Great App Incredibly useful app. Thanks for developing this. My doctors love it; wish there was an iOS version. |
|
[2012-01-26] A Google User: Great app But I would love to see it updated with a lot more types! |
|
[2012-01-24] A Google User: Would be 5* if.. it could use the vibrate to help me when I am constipated. |
|
[2012-01-16] A Google User: Need to allow unknown as default in settings. Calendar view would be nice too. And edit log. And stats. |
|
[2012-01-14] A Google User: Love it! I have the worst time going |
|
[2012-01-12] A Google User: Decent 5 stars for widget |
|
[2012-01-09] A Google User: I like this app except... It doesn't put it into a calendar form or maybe I just haven't figured it out yet. Anyone know? |
|
[2012-01-09] A Google User: Great Good app |
|
[2012-01-09] A Google User: Please fix Doesn't share properly to FB app!! Droid razr |
|
[2012-01-04] A Google User: Very detailed... I had a type 5 today :/ |
|
[2012-01-04] A Google User: Exactly what I needed |
|
[2012-01-02] A Google User: Lov it |
|
[2011-12-31] A Google User: Brilliant Funny as hell and ultimately helpful. Turn your doctors frown upside down. |
|
[2011-12-26] A Google User: Mustafa Excellent! Many thanks to the developer(s).. I would give it 5 stars if it had the features described for the updates. |
|
[2011-12-20] A Google User: Does what iron claims. Good: nice interface, easy to navigate. Bad: Doesn't really take subject very seriously. Like to see more health/medical related info, data collection |
|
[2011-12-12] A Google User: Hilarious! And informative |
|
[2011-12-04] A Google User: Great app, it helps me monitor when I go because sometimes I don't go everyday. |
|
[2011-11-13] A Google User: Great for IBS I have had IBS for over 20 years and this helps me keep track of when I go. I have C-IBS many times I can't remember, this really helps!!! |
|
[2011-11-12] A Google User: 5 stars I love it, I think its fun lol |
