EvenDose vs Shotsy: GLP-1 shot trackers compared (2026)
Written by the makers of EvenDose. Facts about Shotsy are from its App Store page and website, checked 2026-09.
Short answer
The main difference is where the estimated medication-level chart sits. In Shotsy it is in the paid tier; in EvenDose it is included with everything else — 14 days of full access, then one subscription, nothing inside the app locked or blurred. Shotsy is the broader app: Apple Health sync, food and water tracking, and a free tier for logging. Pick Shotsy if you want an all-in-one companion. Pick EvenDose if you want the injection record, the schedule, and the chart, and prefer not to have an account.
Who this comparison is for
Someone starting or already on a weekly GLP-1 who wants a phone app for the injection and is deciding between an all-in-one tracker and a single-purpose one.

What happens when you change phones
This is the question the no-account design raises, so here is the direct answer. EvenDose has no cloud of its own, so there is nothing to sign into on the new phone. Your records move the same way the rest of your apps' data does: through iPhone-to-iPhone transfer at setup, or by restoring the new phone from a full iCloud or computer backup. If you set the new phone up from scratch without a backup, the records do not come with it — the PDF report is for your clinician, not a restore file. Shotsy keeps data on its servers, so signing in on the new phone brings it back regardless of how the phone was set up. That is the real trade-off: Shotsy's account is a convenience for switching phones; EvenDose's lack of one is a guarantee about where the data lives.

FAQ
Is Shotsy free?
Logging is free. The estimated medication-level chart and several other features are in the paid tier.
Does EvenDose have a free version?
There is no permanent free tier. You get 14 days of full access, then a subscription. Basic injection reminders keep working without one, and existing records stay visible.
Is the medication-level chart in EvenDose really not blurred?
Yes. It is part of the app at the single price, from the first day. It is an estimate calculated from your logged doses, not a measurement.
Which app is better for privacy?
EvenDose stores everything on the device with no account. Shotsy stores data on its servers under your account. Each has the consequence described in the section on changing phones.
Does EvenDose sync with Apple Health?
No, by design. Shotsy does.
Can I move my history from Shotsy to EvenDose?
There is no import. You would enter the current dose, the last injection date, and the pen count; history before that is not carried over.
