how it works

a forecast that learns from you.

Pollen apps give you the count. Sneezecast keeps a two-tap diary with you, and in about ten evenings starts telling you which plants are yours.

  1. Tell it where, and what you already know

    Share your location or type a ZIP. The forecast is fetched for a rough area about 28 km across, never your exact spot. Then star the plants you already know get you.

  2. A verdict each morning

    At the time you choose, one sentence arrives on your Lock Screen, your widget and the Today screen: what today’s pollen means for you, and one thing to do.

  3. Two taps each evening

    How did the day feel: None, Mild, Moderate or Rough? And did you take anything: an antihistamine, a nasal spray, an inhaler? Eyes, nose, chest and a note are there if you want them.

  4. After ten days, it starts to notice

    Sneezecast compares your diary with the pollen and the air of each day and ranks what moves your symptoms. All of it is worked out on your iPhone.

What the read looks at

For every logged day, the read sets how you felt against what was around you: each plant’s pollen that day (with a little of the day before), the outdoor air quality, and indoor dust when an Awair monitor has been read on most days. Medicine is taken into account too, so taking something on a bad day doesn’t hide the plant that made it bad.

It ranks plants by effect: how much your symptoms rose on days with more of each. The strongest come first, and a petal ring, your allergy fingerprint, shows the whole season at a glance.

How sure it is

Every row carries an honest word for how much diary it stands on:

  • Early · from 10 to 20 logged days. A first look; it can still change its mind.
  • Settling · from 21 to 44. The order is firming up.
  • Solid · from 45 days on.

If your days have been too alike to tell apart, it says so and asks you to keep logging rather than guessing.

Free, and Plus

The forecast, the verdict, starred plants, the diary, the widgets and the reminders are free, with no ads. Sneezecast Plus adds your ranked triggers and fingerprint, sensitivity by plant, indoor air from an Awair monitor, profiles for your kids and the allergist report: $29.99 a year with a 7-day free trial, or $4.99 a month.

What it isn’t

Sneezecast offers decision support, not medical advice. It doesn’t diagnose or treat anything, and it never names a drug or a dose. Talk to your doctor about your allergies and your medicine.

The evening check-in: How was today? None, Mild, Moderate or Rough.
Your triggers: Oak, Poor air days and Birch, ranked by effect, all Settling.

tomorrow morning, you’ll know.
