About this app

Alongside is a private epilepsy companion for adults managing their own care and for parents, partners, and caregivers supporting someone else.

RECORD WHAT HAPPENED

• Log seizures, auras, and other events.
• Add the event type, time, duration, awareness, recovery, context, rescue medication use, injury, emergency response, and notes.
• Record who made an entry when someone else is helping.

STAY ORGANIZED

• Keep medication schedules and record taken or skipped doses.
• Set optional device medication reminders with medication names hidden by default.
• Add daily check-ins for sleep, mood, stress, illness, and whether medication was taken as planned.
• Search and filter one timeline of events, doses, and check-ins.
• Keep a user-entered care plan, medication list, and care contacts available offline.
• Export the complete record for a profile as unencrypted JSON whenever you choose.

PREPARE FOR CARE CONVERSATIONS

Review a free 30-day summary of recorded events, durations, medication entries, check-ins, and context. Check the summary for accuracy, then share it for an appointment when you choose.

Alongside Premium adds 90-day and one-year views, summaries across those longer ranges, and separate profiles for up to five people.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN

Alongside keeps health records in an encrypted database on this device. It has no developer-operated end-user account, advertising, health-data analytics, or tracking. Automatic Android backup and device transfer are disabled. Records do not sync between devices in this release.

An exported JSON file contains sensitive health information, is not encrypted, and becomes a separate copy controlled through the location or service you choose.

An eligible Alongside Premium subscription stays with the Google Play account that made the purchase. Purchases from another store do not transfer to Google Play.

Optional repeatable one-time support purchases are separate from Premium. They do not renew and do not unlock features.

IMPORTANT

Alongside is not a medical device. It records and organizes user-entered information and does not detect, monitor, or predict seizures. It does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition. Consult a healthcare professional for medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Care-plan instructions are not checked by Alongside; review them with a clinician. Alongside cannot summon help or contact emergency services. In an emergency, contact local emergency services.

What’s new

Privacy and security hardening, current epilepsy terminology, more reliable exports and reminders, and layout and accessibility refinements for phones and tablets.
