What makes this useful
A plain description of shape is easier to revisit than a vague memory that something was different.
Describe your own day without adding relatives’ names, addresses, or health details. A consistent label such as “family visit” helps connect the day you remember with the visit you saved.
A practical way to begin
- Choose the closest of the seven illustrated options. Exact visual matching is not required.
- Keep shape separate from comfort and other observations; they answer different questions.
- If several visits during visits to relatives looked different, give each visit its own shape choice. A shared “family visit” note can group them without flattening the differences.
An example of useful context
“Second morning of the family visit, before everyone went out.”
Does your note identify the occasion without revealing someone else’s private information?
Use your own wording and the details you remember. A short, recognizable note makes it easier to find the visit later.
Where this fits in LooPoo
Using a Bristol stool chart app to record shape explains the full workflow and its limits.
Use Check-in in the iPhone app for this part of your record. The shape selection describes what you recorded and does not diagnose a condition.
LooPoo keeps check-ins and preferences encrypted on your phone. It describes your observations without diagnosing, treating, or predicting a medical outcome.
Keep exploring visits to relatives
- Track visit comfort
Keep the feeling of each visit clear.
- Record noticeable body signals
Distinguish explicit observations from missing details.
- Track bathroom visit length
Remember an approximate duration.
