Afetilu: caregiver journal

Afetilu is a journal for family members and caregivers of autistic people. In a few taps, you note what you observed day to day and, when it is time for the appointment, bring a descriptive summary to the therapist, psychologist or doctor who supports the person.

WHAT YOU CAN LOG • Meals and drinks • Sleep and naps • Perceived pain and discomfort • Feelings and behavior, including difficult episodes, with duration, intensity and what helped • Bathing and hygiene • Bowel movements → • Pee and poop • Activities, achievements and positive moments • Changes in routine, such as a new school, a trip or holidays

Each log keeps the time it happened (exact, approximate or just the time of day) and the source of the information: what you saw, what someone told you or what you suspect.

AN HONEST TIMELINE A day with no logs shows as “no information”, never as “no crises”. Only you mark a day as crisis-free. Corrections are kept in the history.

SUMMARY FOR APPOINTMENTS Choose the period and categories and create a PDF on the device itself, with the day-by-day view, episodes, positive moments and the questions you want to ask. The summary only describes what was logged, without interpreting it.

YOUR DATA STAYS WITH YOU • No account, no server and no sync: everything stays on the device, in an encrypted database. • No ads, no analytics and no tracking. • Backups only when you want them, encrypted with your own password. • Deleting is for real: one person or everything, at any time.

ACCESSIBLE AND CALM Large buttons, screen reader labels and a discreet mascot that reacts to logs. Prefer no animation? There is a simple mode and reduced motion. Available in Portuguese, English and Spanish.

FREE AND OPEN SOURCE No charge, with public source code (MIT license).

IMPORTANT Afetilu is a logging and organization tool. It does not diagnose, does not suggest treatments, diets or medication, and does not point to causes. It does not replace professional assessment and is not an emergency service: in an emergency, call your local emergency number.
