Recovery Record

Recovery Record is a self-monitoring app for people recovering from eating disorders, made by Recovery Record, Inc. You record meals, thoughts, feelings and behaviours, follow a meal plan, use coping tactics and view progress charts; the company recommends linking with an eating disorder specialist, who can follow your logs through a separate clinician app. The App Store listing shows it as free. In the US the company says it follows the HIPAA privacy rule, and you can delete your logs or your whole account in the app. A 2019 randomized trial of 3,294 users compared a tailored version of the app with the standard self-monitoring version; the main outcome did not differ between groups, though remission at 8 weeks was higher with the tailored version. It is a support tool, not a substitute for medical care.
