HELP & DOCUMENTATION

VitalsPath Help Center

Practical guides to organize treatments, log symptoms and prepare for health follow-up with VitalsPath.

Start here

VitalsPath helps organize personal information and routines. Set it up using guidance from your healthcare professionals, and review information before sharing it.

Tutorials

1. Set up profiles and basic details

Create or select the profile you plan to use before logging information. Check the active profile on each screen so entries, treatments and appointments are assigned to the right person. Add only details you want to maintain, and review permissions and privacy settings in both the app and your device settings.

2. Add a treatment and organize doses

Enter the name, instructions, dose and schedule exactly as prescribed. Check units, start and end dates, and time zone. Record a dose as taken, skipped or postponed as appropriate; a notification is a reminder and does not confirm that medicine was taken. Treat stock counts as estimates and check them against the package.

3. Log symptoms, mood and vitals

Add an entry with its date and time, intensity and useful context such as triggers, relief and notes. If you log weight, blood pressure or other vitals, verify the unit and value before saving. Information you enter is not clinically validated, and the app does not interpret or diagnose patterns.

4. Prepare appointments and follow-up

Save the date, clinic or professional, and any notes or questions you want to bring. After the appointment, add follow-up tasks and update treatment instructions only with information confirmed by your healthcare team.

5. Share a profile with someone you trust

Collaboration depends on iCloud, a network connection, accepted invitations and permissions for participating accounts. Check which profile and access you are sharing before inviting someone. Sync can take time; confirm on both devices that changes arrived. Remove access when it is no longer needed and share only what is necessary.

6. Use widgets, Apple Watch and Apple features

These features require compatible devices, operating-system versions and permissions. Enable only the ones you want. Widgets and Live Activities may show recent information, but iOS decides when they refresh, so they are not guaranteed real-time views. Open the app to confirm information when needed.

7. Review and share reports

Before exporting or sharing a report, check its date range, profile, units and each entry. A report summarizes logged information; it is not a complete medical record or clinical assessment. Choose a sharing channel yourself and send it only to the intended people.

8. Check permissions and notifications

If reminders or Apple Health data are missing, review notification or Health permissions in iOS Settings and in the app. Focus modes, volume, device state and iOS rules can affect alerts. Grant only the access you need; you can revoke it in Settings.

Important notes and limitations

  • VitalsPath is for organizing and reviewing personal information. It does not provide diagnosis, medical advice or treatment, and it does not replace healthcare professionals.
  • Do not use the app for emergencies. The emergency card does not automatically call emergency services. If you need urgent help, contact local emergency services directly.
  • Notifications do not guarantee that every reminder will arrive on time. They depend on iOS permissions and settings, connectivity, power and device state. Keep an alternative for critical treatments.
  • Widgets and Live Activities do not refresh continuously; iOS controls their update frequency and may show stale information.
  • Apple Health/HealthKit information depends on granted permissions, connected sources and device availability. Do not assume all Health data is imported.
  • Collaboration requires compatible accounts and permissions, iCloud and a network connection. Sync can be delayed or temporarily fail. Confirm important changes on participating devices.
  • Accuracy depends on information you enter or import. Review doses, units, dates and reports; confirm clinical instructions with your healthcare team.
  • Free-plan limits, premium features and prices can change by app version, storefront or offer. Check the app's subscription screen and App Store listing before purchase.
  • Apple Watch, widgets, Live Activities, Siri and Health availability depends on device model, OS, language, region and permissions. Some features are unavailable on some devices.

Frequently asked questions

Does VitalsPath decide which medicine or dose I should take?

No. It records the plan you enter; follow your healthcare professional's instructions and ask them about any changes.

Why did I miss a notification?

Review permissions, Focus, volume, connectivity and iOS settings. Timely delivery is not guaranteed by the app or operating system.

Why can't I see shared changes?

Check connectivity, invitation acceptance, permissions and that both people have selected the correct profile. Sync may take time.

Do widgets always show the latest information?

Not necessarily. iOS limits widget refreshes; open the app to check current information.

Does all my data stay on my device or use end-to-end encryption?

Do not assume so. Storage and sync depend on the feature and your configuration. Read the current Privacy Policy for information about data processing.

Where can I check my plan price and limits?

Check the app's subscription screen and the App Store purchase confirmation; they can vary by region, taxes, offer and eligibility.
