Record what you noticed. Keep the history for later.

What can you record about side effects in Habits?

Habits lets you:

• open side-effect logging from the Medication area;
• choose a side effect from the available list;
• save the entry to your account;
• keep a history of the side-effect entries you recorded;
• use the same app for your medication schedule and dose history.

Habits records the information you choose to log.

It does not decide whether a symptom was caused by your medication, whether it is serious, or what treatment you need.

Add an entry when you want to keep a record.

Open the side-effect logger and choose from the available list.

The entry is then kept in your Habits history.

That gives you something concrete to look back on later instead of relying only on memory.

Medication and side-effect records belong close together.

A side-effect entry is easier to find later when it is not buried in a separate notes app.

In Habits, side-effect tracking sits inside the Medication feature, close to:

• the medication schedule you configured;
• the doses you logged;
• your recent dose history.

That keeps the records in one place without claiming that one entry caused the other.

Make the later question easier to answer.

A few days or weeks later, details can be difficult to reconstruct.

A simple record can help you answer questions such as:

• Did I log this before?
• What other side-effect entries had I already recorded?
• What had I recorded before my next healthcare appointment?

Habits helps preserve your entries so you can refer back to them.

The history is a record—not an interpretation.

A side effect is not the only thing you may want to remember.

Habits can also keep records for:

• medication;
• food and protein;
• hydration;
• exercise;
• mood;
• sleep;
• weight and measurements;
• progress photos.

You choose which of those categories are useful to you.

They remain separate records unless a specific Habits feature explicitly analyses them.

Keep the record available when you need to review your Habits history.

Habits includes weekly reporting and a Doctor Report PDF built from information recorded in the app.

The current verified product reference confirms medication reporting, but it does not establish that every side-effect entry is included in every report.

For that reason, this page does not promise that side-effect history will appear in a particular report format.

Use the app controls available for sensitive records.

Side-effect information can be personal.

Habits includes:

• Face ID or Touch ID app locking on supported devices;
• AI consent controls;
• a master AI switch;
• category-level AI permissions;
• AI access history;
• CSV and JSON data export;
• re-authenticated account deletion.

Optional AI features use permission controls inside Habits. The current product reference does not separately define how side-effect entries map to those AI categories, so refer to the current Privacy Policy and in-app AI Privacy Dashboard for the production data flow. Habits currently uses OpenAI models for optional AI functionality.
