Tantrum Tracker

Track behavioral incidents, uncover the patterns, and share what helps.

On the App Store since 2013. Version 4 is a ground-up rebuild for iPhone and, for the first time, Android.

Coming soon

Version 4 is in development for iPhone and Android. The original app was retired from sale in 2026 while the rebuild is finished, so there is nothing to download just yet.

What it does

Tantrum Tracker helps parents, guardians, and caregivers make sense of a child's challenging behavior. Log each incident as it happens, and over time the app reveals the patterns: what tends to set things off, what helps, and how things are trending. It was created for families navigating autism and behavioral challenges, and it works just as well for tracking an adult.

Everything in one calm place

Made for the day-to-day of caregiving

Log incidents in seconds

Capture behavior, severity, location, trigger, response, what helped, and outcome with quick taps. Start and end times compute the duration for you.

As many as actually applied

The original app allowed one behavior, one precipitator, one mitigator, one response, one resolution. Real incidents are rarely that tidy. Subscribers can pick every option that applied in each category — one of the most-requested changes from long-time users.

Categories that fit your child

The built-in lists do not cover every family, so anyone can add global categories — custom triggers, places, and responses — and use them across all their children. Subscribers also get shared categories: everyone logging for the same child picks from the same list, so one person's “Grandma’s house” and another’s “grandmas” do not become two entries and two half-charts.

See the patterns

Ten built-in charts surface how triggers, severity, location, and duration relate. A pile of moments becomes something you can actually read.

Track diet & medication

Note gluten, casein, and medication alongside each incident. The kind of context that matters to many families.

A list or a calendar

Flip between a chronological log and a calendar that shows incident counts and health markers at a glance.

Capture the moment

Attach photos and videos to any incident and revisit them later in a per-child media gallery.

Every child, kept separate

Track multiple children with completely separate records, added by hand or imported from your contacts.

Share with people who help

Invite family and caregivers as editors or viewers; records sync securely so everyone sees the same picture.

Apple Watch & widget (iPhone only)

On iPhone, an Apple Watch app logs an incident with a timer and Digital Crown severity. A Home Screen widget makes quick logging one tap away.

Your data, exportable

Export everything to CSV for a spreadsheet, or to share with the doctor or therapist who supports your child.

Ten ways to look

Every chart is generated on your device from the incidents you log. No spreadsheets, no setup.
