OstoBuddy Ostomy Companion Reviews

This is a well designed app but it’s limited to being online for any data input which is frustrating when in poor coverage areas. Should be no requirement when simply syncing data would solve the issue

New ostomate and OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion makes everything easier. Was carrying around a pen and paper to record this info for my doctors. But I also have to track my intake. Would love to see a tab for food/beverage consumption so I can have it all in one place and see how it correlates to output.

This is the best of the Bunch as far as ostomy applications. The only thing I wish it would do In addition to current features is to track urine output.

This is a great app for logging my Ileostomy output! However, my surgeon (as well as many others) want me logging my liquid intake. I wish there was a spot for liquid intake on here so I could compare. BONUS POINTS for a food diary, too, so I don’t have to use 3 different apps!

Not only does it remind me when its time to change, customizable, but it keeps a count on my supplies and reminds me to reorder those when long before i run low 😃

OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion helps keep track of everything an ostomate needs to keep track of. Every update makes OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion better and better.

Great app, helped me so much track output . I could show med staff , easily with forward copy and paste or screenshot.
Really an invaluable tool for the ostomate

OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion helps keep me on track with changing my appliance, keeping up with supplies, output, and skin condition. I don’t know what I would do without it!!

This is the second time I’ve had an ileostomy. The first time was in 2018 and it was a temporary, I had emergency surgery. I then had the reversal three months later. Didn’t work out so well and here I am again but with a permanent ileostomy this time. Last year I looked EVERYWHERE for apps that I could use to do EXACTLY what OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion does for me. Rather than keeping track of everything on paper (which posed to be an inconvenience being a busy mommy of four). It was very early 2018, so some apps may have started coming about later in the year. But I did not have the option to have apps like this. And when I found OstoBuddy I was ecstatic! I have so many complications that it’s so important I keep track of everything for my high-risk surgeon. She loves that she can see everything on her end as well, as I’ve shared with her. I love that I can see when my output is getting beyond what it should be. I love that I get notified when I’m low on products. And I love the reminders to change my entire system. Although I typically remember to do so, it’s just nice to have the reminder. I will say that (as others have said), it would be nice to have hydration tracking as well as a food diary. But it’s not so bad to not have it, because I have an app just for hydration and food intake as well (both in that one app). And it’s not difficult to open another app to log hydration. It would definitely be a plus to have the hydration and food in OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion, but if that addition never comes... I am still in LOVE with OstoBuddyOstomyCompanion and swear by it! This is great for every ostomate, especially as a new ostomate, you’ll definitely need this! Good luck all and best wishes! 💜 #wearewarriors
