Rolled out this idea in a thread long ago about Apple not including a Period Tracker in their health app and it was taboo then, but here is as best a place to try again...
There should be a poop tracking app. It would help a user track their waste over time, identify important red flags, act as an incredibly detailed source of diagnostic data for health care professionals, and promote healthy and happy living.
Two topics that people seem so afraid of discussing are shitting and masturbating which seems so silly to me, as those are two things all humans do. If you want to be healthy, start with your poo; understanding your waste will tell you how to eat, sleep, exercise, and live better.
- OldSchoolJohnny 11y agoUm..."very solid today", "kind of soft today"...what exactly would you track, without more tools to analyze it?
- fencepost 11y ago"never eating Taco Bell again." Actually, you could track cohesion, firmness, gassiness, possibly odor, etc. Unfortunately there's already an online community of people who do this kind of thing.
- classicsnoot 11y agoColor, texture, odor, amount, frequency, duration, experience, to start off. Chromotagraphy and good ol' regular image capture might be super useful, too. Pairing the app with a food intake tracker would be ideal. There could be different options of detail in terms of data collection. Known illnesses could be factored in. Worrisome trends could be identified. Uncomfortable conversations could be avoided, thereby helping medical professionals more easily asses the root causes of problems. Anonymous communities could be established based on chronic ailments and religiously health minded folks alike. There are a diarrhea of options for this idea (I couldn't fuckingbhelp myself... so many poop puns wanted to come out...)
