The symptom diary
How you feel has patterns. Find them.
Jaw symptoms move around a lot from one day to the next, which is exactly what makes them hard to read from the inside. Log a few seconds a day and the app does the reading for you — what tends to come before a bad morning, and what tends to help.
Why tracking matters
In the app
What JawSense does for you
Four things, and none of them take long. Log as much or as little as you want — the app works with whatever you give it.
01
Track what matters most to you
Pick the outcomes you actually care about — jaw tension, headaches, how you slept, whatever you'd most like to see change — and score them on a simple 0–10 scale.
02
Track what else was going on
Symptoms, triggers, what you tried, your mood, and a note in your own words. Context is what turns a score into something you can act on.
03
Try a routine, or track your own
Evidence-based exercise and relaxation routines you can follow as they are — or log the ones you already do, and find out whether they earn their place.
04
Analyse your patterns
See what's working and what's leaving you feeling worse. The app does the comparing, so what you get back is an answer rather than a spreadsheet.
Smart analytics
The reading-back is the part you can't do yourself
Logging is easy. Noticing that your worst mornings follow your longest days is not — not from the inside, and not by scrolling back through a diary. The app compares your own data over time and tells you what it found.
Trend over time
Compares this week with the one before, so slow change shows up even when you can't feel it day to day.
Your jaw is easing off compared with last week
Trigger impact
Finds your top five personal triggers and scores each one — including the ones that show up the next day rather than the same day.
Your sore mornings tend to follow your most stressful days
What actually helps
Ranks the routines and remedies you've logged by how they did for you specifically, rather than on average.
Heat seems to settle yours faster than ice does
Weekly patterns
Reads your week by day and tells you whether certain days are reliably better or worse than the rest.
Mondays are consistently your worst day
More than a diary
Tracking, exercises and programmes in one app
The diary is one part of it. JawSense also carries guided exercises and structured programmes, so what you learn from your own data has somewhere to go.
