Capabilities
A calmer way to find what your gut reacts to
Two-tap symptom logging
Bloating, pain, bowel changes — done in two taps when the reminder fires, so consistency stays easy.
Your Trigger Report
After 14 days of consistent logging, unlock which foods statistically track with your symptoms and your personal safe list.
FODMAP stacking detection
Warns you when one meal stacks two or more moderate-FODMAP foods so you can see the risk before you eat it.
Apple Health context
Optionally read sleep, HRV, and menstrual cycle data from Apple HealthKit to see how they relate to your gut — read-only and on-device.
A clean PDF for your dietitian
Walk into your next appointment with answers, not guesses: export a tidy report of your patterns, safe list, and top triggers.
Workflow

Log for 14 days

Step 2
Unlock your Trigger Report
After 14 days of consistent logging, TriggerMap surfaces which foods statistically track with your symptoms and your personal safe list.
Step 3
Avoid your top triggers
Follow the weekly report to avoid your top triggers, track improvement over time, and share a clean PDF with your dietitian.

FAQ
Common questions
Is TriggerMap a medical app?
No. TriggerMap is a self-tracking tool that surfaces statistical patterns in your own data. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before changing your diet or treatment.
Where is my data stored?
On your device. If you are signed in to iCloud, your logs sync through your private CloudKit database, which the developer cannot access. Delete everything at any time from Settings → Data → Delete All Data.
Are meal photos uploaded?
On devices with iOS 26 or later, photo analysis runs fully on-device — nothing is uploaded. On older systems, if a cloud analysis service is configured, only the recognized ingredient text is sent for analysis; the photos themselves never leave your phone.
Can I use TriggerMap without subscribing?
Yes. TriggerMap is a free download, and meal and symptom logging, the 1,300+ food library, and FODMAP stacking detection do not require a subscription. TriggerMap Pro, billed monthly or annually, unlocks the full Trigger Report, weekly reports, unlimited AI meal scanning, HealthKit insights, and PDF export.
Which Apple Health data does TriggerMap read?
If you grant permission, TriggerMap reads sleep, heart-rate variability (HRV), and menstrual cycle data from Apple HealthKit. All processing is on-device, read-only, and never transmitted to TaoApex or any third party. You can revoke the permission in iOS Settings at any time.
How do I delete all my data?
Open TriggerMap, go to Settings → Data → Delete All Data. The deletion takes effect immediately on the device and on your private iCloud sync. For any privacy or account question, email support@taoapex.com with the subject TriggerMap.
Which devices are supported?
iPhone running iOS 17 or later. AI photo analysis requires iOS 26; older systems still support manual search, favorites, and label photo scanning.
