PUP
Tracking your bowel movements sounds niche until you try it — then you wonder how you ever managed without it. Whether you’re dealing with IBS, working on gut health, or just curious about your patterns, a good tracker turns vague feelings into clear data.
Here are the best options on Android right now.
1. PUP — Best for gamified tracking
Price: Free (Pro available)
PUP is built around one idea: logging should take 7 seconds, not 7 minutes. You pick your Bristol type, duration, and toilet type — done. No essays, no multi-page forms.
What makes it different:
- Bristol Stool Scale as the core — every log uses the clinical 7-type scale, so your data actually means something
- Gamification that works — 10 ranks, daily streaks, 46 achievements, and XP. It sounds silly, but it makes you actually want to log.
- Offline-first — works without internet, syncs when you’re back
- Privacy-first — no ads, no tracking pixels, no data selling
- Pattern analysis — monthly calendar, distribution charts, and a Poop Score
Best for: Anyone who wants to track consistently without it feeling like homework.
2. Poop Tracker — Simple and functional
Price: Free with ads
A straightforward tracker that lets you log stool type, color, and notes. No gamification, no frills — just a clean logging interface.
What it offers:
- Basic Bristol scale logging
- Color tracking
- Notes field
- Calendar view
Best for: People who want a no-nonsense tracker without extra features.
3. Bowelle — IBS-focused
Price: Free / Premium
Bowelle is designed specifically for people with IBS. It tracks stool, food, stress, medications, and symptoms in one place.
What it offers:
- Detailed symptom logging
- Food diary integration
- Stress and medication tracking
- Export for doctor visits
Best for: People managing IBS who need to correlate food, stress, and symptoms with bowel habits.
4. MyFitnessPal (for gut health)
Price: Free / Premium
Not a poop tracker per se, but many people use MyFitnessPal’s food diary to identify gut health patterns. When combined with a dedicated stool tracker, food logs become much more useful.
Best for: People who want to connect diet to gut outcomes.
What to look for in a poop tracker
- Speed — if logging takes more than 30 seconds, you won’t do it consistently
- Bristol scale support — the clinical standard; anything else is guesswork
- Offline capability — you won’t always have signal in the bathroom
- Data ownership — can you export your data? Can you delete it?
- Pattern visualization — raw logs are hard to read; charts and calendars surface insights
The bottom line
The best poop tracker is the one you’ll actually use. Most people who try tracking for a month discover patterns they never noticed — which foods sit well, how stress affects their gut, whether their “normal” is actually normal.
If you want something fast, fun, and privacy-focused, try PUP. It’s free to start, no account required.
