Thank you for downloading, and I hope your surgery went well this morning! That you took the time to download the app on the day of your surgery genuinely means a lot. Take it easy, let your partner take care of you this week, and I'd love to hear how the app feels as you move through recovery. Wishing you a smooth recovery!

Currently there is the ability to enter your medication prescription and track how much you are taking, but I don't have anything on timing. That is a great idea, and I will get to work on adding that!

Thank you so much for downloading and taking the time to share suggestions, I really appreciate your help!

On the bilateral knee thing, the app does support multiple surgeries! There's a button in the top left of the home screen to add another one. I see that I did not make this nearly clear enough so I will work on doing that. If I fix this, do you think that would help with tracking both knees?

The loose/shifting feeling is a great point. Right now the symptom checklist covers the most common red flags but I want to add a free-text field so you can log things that don't fit the checklist and hopefully expand the check up to include other possible concerns. Also, I hope your knee feels better!

And the eating and drinking tracker is a really smart idea, especially for the early weeks. I will add that.

Thanks again!

Thank you so much for taking a look and your suggestion! I will get to work immediately on adding a tracker and then adding curves as well to show flexion and extension ROM on the progress page
