Seizure Folio

The seizure diary your neurologist wants.

Every feature, from the first launch.

No account, no login, no cloud. Everything runs on your device and works fully offline — nothing in this post is hidden behind a wall.

What Seizure Folio does

Seizure Folio is the free, private, fully on-device seizure diary for the 3.4 million Americans living with epilepsy — and the family members who track on their behalf.

Every neurologist and epilepsy foundation tells patients to keep a seizure diary and bring it to appointments. Yet the apps that do this gate the core logging behind subscriptions and cloud accounts, and some bundle in detection hardware. So patients fall back to the printable PDF sheets the foundations hand out. Seizure Folio is the paper diary, done right — and it costs nothing.

What Seizure Folio does:

— Log a seizure in seconds. Type (focal, tonic-clonic, absence, myoclonic, other), duration, time of day, aura/warning, triggers (missed meds, poor sleep, stress, flashing lights, illness, menstrual cycle), recovery time, and free-text notes. — Optional video note. Attach a short video clip stored locally on the device — the thing neurologists increasingly ask for — never uploaded anywhere. — Medication log. Track AEDs and doses; mark missed doses, which are a top trigger. — Frequency charts. Seizures per week/month, by type, by trigger — Swift Charts, on-device. — The neurologist PDF. One tap exports a clean clinical report — seizure count, types, durations, triggers, medication adherence — formatted for the appointment. — No login, no subscription, no sync to break, no cloud. Everything lives on this phone.

Seizure Folio is a personal seizure journal — not a detection or diagnostic device. For the 3.4M US epilepsy patients and their caregivers who deserve a tool that just works.

Why we built it

Epilepsy patients are told to keep a seizure diary for their neurologist, but the apps gate core logging behind subscriptions/cloud accounts or bundle detection hardware — pushing patients back to printable PDF sheets.

What makes it different

Seizure Folio is the only seizure diary that is free, account-free, and 100% on-device, capturing type/duration/triggers/aura/recovery plus an optional locally-stored video note, and exporting a neurologist-grade PDF — Epipal requires a subscription, SeizAlarm is $17.99/mo, Epsy logs users out with data loss and has n…

Who it's for

Sandwich-generation caregivers, adult children of aging parents, and anyone keeping records for more than one person.
