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.

There is a free version, and it is not a trial — it does not expire. Here is exactly what each plan includes.

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 you can add your own — behaviors, triggers, places, responses, what helped, and how things ended (triggers and what-helped are called precipitators and mitigators in the chart names). Subscribers can make a category global, so it works across all their children, and get shared categories too: 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

The 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 for each day. 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

The free version tracks one child. With a subscription — or the original iOS app — you can track as many children as you need, each with completely separate records, added by hand or imported from your contacts.

Share with people who help

Subscribers can invite family and caregivers as editors or viewers; everyone sees the same records, kept securely in one place.

Apple Watch & widget (iPhone only)

With a subscription 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

With a subscription — or the original iOS app — export everything to CSV for a spreadsheet, or to share with the doctor or therapist who supports your child.
