A good record helps you answer practical questions later: when you took a shot, what you logged, where you injected, and what came next.
What belongs in a useful shot record?
The goal is not to collect every possible detail. It is to preserve the details that make your routine easier to review.
- Date and time: when the shot was logged.
- Medication and dose: the information you entered from your prescribed plan.
- Injection site: a simple history that can help you remember where you injected previously.
- Side effects and notes: your own observations between shots.
- Supply context: which active supply record the shot used.
ShotNest brings those records into one timeline and keeps the next scheduled shot visible. It does not determine what medication or dose you should take.
Why context matters more than a streak
A shot log is most useful when it helps you reconstruct what happened—not when it turns adherence into a score. Seeing shots alongside weight entries, side effects, dose changes, and estimated medication levels can make a single data point easier to understand.
That history can also make conversations with a licensed clinician more concrete. ShotNest remains a tracking and educational tool; your prescription and clinician’s guidance remain the source of truth.
Private by design
ShotNest works without an account. Detailed records begin in local storage on your iPhone. Optional features such as Apple Health access and upcoming iCloud Sync operate only with permission or explicit enablement.

Important boundaries
ShotNest does not prescribe medication, recommend dose changes, replace medication instructions, or provide medical care. Do not use a tracking estimate to decide whether or how to take medication.
If a medication, label, dose, schedule, or symptom raises a question, use the instructions supplied with the medication and contact a licensed clinician or pharmacist. The FDA also advises patients to obtain GLP-1 medicines through an appropriate prescription and discusses added risks associated with unapproved products.
