What changed, and when.

Changes to the app at app.n1lab.app since it opened, newest first. Each entry is dated by the day its changes reached the app. There are no version numbers: a change goes out when it is ready.

for practitioners

Energy in and out, for each client.

A practitioner can now set a client's estimated energy requirement beside what their food log says they ate. The practitioner's inputs and estimates stay on the practitioner's side, and clients see nothing new.

added
A client's record in the practice area gains Energy. The requirement is estimated from inputs the practitioner enters. Energy in is read day by day from the client's food log, with how much of each day's log could be read.
added
Any logged food can be matched more closely with Refine: search the food composition data and set the grams eaten. The figures come from AUSNUT 2023, Food Standards Australia New Zealand's public food composition data.

A calmer Settings.

Settings is a short list again, each check-in's time and reminder sit in one place, and a save that fails says so where you tapped.

changed
Settings reads in one order: Protocol, Check-ins, Display, Your record, About and Account. With a care plan, Plan comes first. Without one, a one-row Plan section follows Your record. Each check-in row shows its time and opens its time and reminder together.
added
Change password, under Account, emails you a reset link.
fixed
Each reminder's Off and On set what they say.
fixed
Changing phase is one deliberate step. Tapping a phase selects it, the sheet shows what will change, and Change phase saves it.
changed
A save that fails says so on the card you tapped and puts the old value back. If your session has ended, because you signed out on another device for example, a save keeps what you typed and offers Sign in.
changed
The access log in Share your record shows one line per practitioner per day, instead of one line per screen they opened.
–

Help, inside the app.

n1lab has a plain-language guide at app.n1lab.app/help. Anyone can read it, signed in or not.

added
Help opened on 4 October. Its first pages followed on 8 October: Start on your own, Do your morning check-in, Do your evening check-in, Where did Trials go? and Sign-in and email links. The check-in pages and Where did Trials go? carry pictures of the screens they describe.
added
Add n1lab to your Home Screen walks through installing n1lab on an iPhone, one picture per step. The beta invitation email carries the same steps. On an iPhone, reminders reach only the installed app.
added
Help is the last row of the More menu, at the foot of the sign-in and invitation screens, and in the practice sidebar. It offers Back to n1lab to the screen you came from.
–

Joining by invitation.

During the beta, an account comes from an invitation. Invitations show the terms and the verified address they came from.

changed
Sign-up is by invitation only. To ask for one, leave your email at n1lab.app/beta. A practitioner on the practice plan can still invite a client, and a client can still invite a practitioner.
changed
An invitation from a practitioner shows the address it was sent from, which n1lab has verified. It also says that n1lab verified the address, not the name or practice. An invitation can't be sent in n1lab's name.
changed
Invitation screens show the terms before you accept or start. The invitation email says that it has made an account, and how to have it deleted.
changed
Inviting new clients from the practice area needs the practice plan, which n1lab turns on. A practitioner a client invited reads that client as before.
–

Trials, Trends and the first screens, tidied.

Food trials watch the symptoms you choose, trial names come off the charts, and a new record starts with a sensible panel.

added
A food trial watches the symptoms you choose: Symptoms to watch, up to five, at setup and in a running trial's menu.
changed
On Trends, each card names its food trials once, in one strip, with a faint line through each chart on the day the trial started. Supplement and medication bands are named once, on the first card.
changed
A single food trial's outcome reads Confidence is low on this record. A note that says "no headache" doesn't count toward the outcome the app suggests.
changed
A Custom protocol starts with one symptom from each of five groups, and the practitioner path with the same five plus the skin group.
–

Your words, and your account.

Morning and evening notes are kept apart, the notes you type stay out of a practitioner's view, and n1lab keeps only what it needs.

changed
Each check-in's note is its own note. The morning's is saved as an Overnight note and the evening's as a Daily note, side by side in Notes.
changed
A practitioner you share with doesn't see the notes you type on logged entries, on a trial or in a check-in's notes. What you type about a day off-protocol is shared. Your own report and export can still include your notes.
changed
Passwords need at least 8 characters, and a password known from public data breaches is refused. Changing a password asks for the current one, unless an email link has just signed you in.
changed
Deleting your account takes its stored files with it. If something stops a deletion, the reason shows beside the button.
added
What n1lab no longer needs is deleted on a schedule, such as old reminder records and devices that stopped taking reminders. Nothing is deleted because an account is quiet; accounts and files go only when their owner asks.
changed
The export includes your food log, who you shared your record with, and the full access log.
–

Trials for the supplements and medications in your plan.

A supplement or medication in your care plan can now be run as a trial, over weeks rather than hours, at the level of detail you choose.

added
A care plan can hold a Medication beside a supplement, with the same dose grid.
added
Start a trial from the dose on your plan: Start a trial on this supplement or Start a trial on this medication. Choose Light, Standard or Detailed. Light is dose ticks and one question at the end. Standard compares up to three symptoms. Detailed adds a short daily entry.
added
At the end, the trial sets each symptom's average for the two weeks before the start against the average since, and says when a symptom was already moving before it began. You record the outcome yourself, and its confidence is always low.
changed
The trial page draws its record: the weeks before and since, doses per week, and each symptom's change with a small chart.
added
Trends shades each supplement or medication trial as a band on the charts.
added
A practitioner you share your record with reads these trials, read-only and without your notes.
added
Reminders for a trial, off until you turn them on.

Medication changes go to the prescriber.

A plan update that touches a medication points to the prescriber, and every change shows as it will be saved.

added
A plan update that touches a medication adds Check with your doctor before you change a medication. A practitioner drafting one is told that a change to a medication is for the client's prescriber.
changed
A plan update lists each change with every amount, as it will be saved.
–

Trials, rebuilt.

Food trials, challenges and staples alike, now share one setup, one trial page and one list. Each trial is read against its own starting point, and a mistake can be undone.

changed
One two-step setup for every food trial: choose the food, then say Which run is this? where your protocol asks. Both kinds open the same trial page.
changed
Recording a window is one tap per symptom under What moved?, plus signals and a note. A symptom you don't touch is saved as not recorded, never as zero.
changed
When a window is open or a result is owed, Today raises the trial as the day's main card with one action: Record what moved or Read the outcome. The Trials page is one list ordered by what needs you, with history By food.
changed
A trial's changes are read against your 14-day baseline before it. Where there is none, they are read against your snapshot at the start. A trial past 24 hours can always reach its outcome, even with a window missed.
added
The outcome screen shows what moved and the outcome it suggests, with its reasons, and asks for one confirmation: Record this outcome or Record a different one. A trial's menu can Abort this trial, Delete one with nothing recorded, or Reopen and Amend outcome on a closed one. Amendments stay listed on the record.
added
A food's page lists every run of that food in date order, and Trends' per-food section became Trials by food. A food introduction on your plan links to its trial, or offers Start a trial on this food.
–
for practitioners

A practitioner's view that fits on a screen.

The client overview leads with what moved, compares one plan stage with the one before, and opens each highlight onto the days behind it.

changed
The client overview reads in one order: a context line, What moved, Record quality, one line for each other section, and How to read this. The cards, calendars and tables that made it several screens long are gone.
added
Where the plan has dated stages, the overview compares the current stage with the one before. The record says when you last read it.
changed
The Groups page is one grid, each signal against each food group present, with every cell opening one detail. Save as PDF prints that one detail on a page. Foods the client logged that fit no group are listed, each saying why.
added
Choose up to five symptoms to focus on for each client. What moved leads with them, and the client list shows Last read. The focus is yours and is never written to the client's record.
changed
Trials: one row per food with its runs, and a read-only record of each trial. A client can let you see each trial window's readings with a switch in Share your record, now named Food trial windows. Window notes stay with the client.
added
Invitations work both ways. A practitioner can Invite a client and draft their first plan for the client to confirm, and can Accept or Decline a client's invitation from the client list.
–

Trends shows everything you track.

Trends charts every tracked variable, and you choose which symptom leads. Links in n1lab's emails open a page with one button.

changed
Trends charts every variable you track, grouped by category, each with its latest value. A tap on a chart's header folds it, and the fold is remembered.
added
Choose which symptom leads Today and Trends. It starts as your protocol's headline symptom.
changed
Nothing unusual — same as yesterday copies yesterday's evening answers, and leaves the day's morning answers and pain as they are.
changed
Links in n1lab's emails open a short page with one button, so a mail scanner that follows links can't use them up first. Links last 24 hours, and the invitation email says so.
changed
The app shows its own typeface, Inter, on every device.
changed
The Low-FODMAP and AIP cards describe each diet by the foods it removes.
changed
Ten foods moved category in the catalogue, mandarin to Fruit and eggplant to Vegetables among them, and pork and beef sausage were added.
–

Share your record with a practitioner.

A client can invite a practitioner to read their record. The client chooses who, sees each read made on n1lab's screens, and can revoke access at any time. A practitioner reads; only the client writes.

added
Share your record, in Settings: Invite a practitioner by email, and see each read made on n1lab's screens in the Access log. You can withdraw an invitation or revoke access at any time.
added
A practitioner who accepts gets a practice area: a client list, and each client's overview, signals and full record. Every read on n1lab's screens is written to the client's access log.
added
Plan changes are proposed, never imposed. A practitioner drafts changes to a client's plan, and the client sees a line on Today such as "1 plan update to confirm". Nothing changes until the client confirms, and any change can be unticked first.
added
A practitioner can build their own groups of foods, supplements, medications or symptoms to read a record by. They are now called Group lenses, and clients never see them.
changed
Links in password-reset, confirmation and invitation emails open their screen already signed in.
–

Whose protocol, reminders, and a quieter plan.

Onboarding starts with one question, reminders arrive, and the Plan page keeps the day on top.

changed
Onboarding opens with Whose protocol are you running?: My practitioner’s or My own. The practitioner path sets up the plan inside onboarding, and the symptom step is a short confirmation with Adjust panel behind it.
added
A Custom protocol sets Your rules: which food groups you remove, and how fast. Add your own names a symptom the catalogue lacks.
added
Reminders for the morning and evening check-ins, plan doses and food, each off until you turn it on. A reminder comes once a day, and only while the thing is still undone.
added
A one-time Beta participation screen sets out what usage information the beta may include, what it never includes, and what is off.
added
At the end of a plan stage you can continue it, a week at a time, as well as start the next one.
changed
The Plan page keeps today's doses, introductions and record on top. Everything else sits behind one Plan details row.
changed
Cravings take more than one type a day, and Other asks What did you crave?
–

A fuller record, and the report as a PDF.

Today gains depth, more symptoms can be tracked, and the report names what rose and saves as a PDF from a phone.

fixed
A save lets go of its button the moment it lands, everywhere in the app.
changed
Today has depth: one card stands out to mark where the day is, and symptom rows show a 0–10 bar. Your record shows your lead symptom over the last 14 days, with a missed day outlined rather than drawn as zero. Once both check-ins are in, a quiet Recorded row takes the banner's place.
added
More symptoms to choose from, nausea, reflux, joint pain, dizziness and palpitations among them. Tracked symptoms adds or stops a symptom mid-study, and past entries are kept.
added
The report lists Signals that rose in the period, with the rule it used and the days behind it.
added
Save PDF on the report, for the phone's share sheet.
changed
One care plan at a time: starting a second while one is active is refused, and a plan can be deactivated without deleting anything. A practitioner's own words go in Baseline rules, Background and Why it's in the plan, always shown quoted.
added
A past day's plan record can be corrected: Edit plan record.
–

A food log you build as you eat, and the rest of the day.

Food, things taken, movement and longer-running changes each got a place of their own, and what you log often offers itself back.

changed
Food starts each day empty. Add foods as you eat them, with an optional time and amount, and each entry saves at once. Anything typed can be added as written, and Record a fasted day marks a day you ate nothing. This replaced a food sheet that opened pre-filled with a usual plate.
added
Taken is one list for anything you take: a medicine, a supplement, or a substance such as coffee or alcohol. Each add saves at once, and a dose from your plan ticks the plan too. A few hours later, Today asks once whether you felt anything.
added
Movement has its own screen: pick a kind, how long, and Easy, Steady or Hard.
added
Exposures record a change that stays changed, such as a new product, a course of medication or a change in your surroundings. File one from the evening check-in's Something new in the mix? It shows on the day's record, as a shaded range on Trends, and in the report.
changed
What you log on three separate days within 60 days appears by itself as a one-tap usual on Food, Taken and Movement.
changed
Sleep quality shows its word beside its number, such as "restful · 8", so it reads as a rating, unlike the symptom rows, where higher is worse.
–

With a care plan, the plan leads.

For anyone following an active care plan, the middle tab became Plan and Today carries the plan in one card.

changed
With an active plan, the bottom bar reads Today, Plan, More, and Trials moves into More. Without one it stays Today, Trials, More.
changed
Today shows the plan in one card: the stage and week, what is left today, and one button when something is due, Record result or Review stage.
changed
For everyone, logging from Today became a row of four buttons, straight to Food, Taken, Movement and Note.
added
The plan's daily measures, water and urine colour, show on the Plan page with today's reading.
fixed
A plan with no stage running can be restarted with Start this stage today, and View the rules opens the practitioner's baseline rules.
–

A report to hand your practitioner.

A client can print a dated record of their protocol for their practitioner, and n1lab, added to an iPhone Home Screen, opens as an app of its own.

added
A printable Protocol report — observation record of your own record, over a range you choose: record quality, the plan record, self-scored signals, daily measures, trials, and only the notes you tick. It is in Settings, under Report.
added
Added to an iPhone Home Screen, n1lab opens full-screen with its own name and icon, clear of the notch. Pinch-zoom works across the app.
fixed
View all under recent observations opens Observations, every recorded day by month, instead of Notes.
fixed
A past day's record shows a plan introduction as eaten and a practice as done.
–

The check-ins, Today and the day's record, redrawn.

The evening check-in became a short ritual, Today was rebuilt around one card, and a day's record shows its food and plan entries.

changed
Symptom scores are one tap on a row of 0–10 cells. The evening closes with a press-and-hold, Nothing unusual — same as yesterday when nothing changed, then Day closed. with room for a note.
changed
Where a plan asks for hydration, urine colour is picked from a strip of eight swatches.
changed
Today was rebuilt around one main card: a status line, the action that is due, and one large button. More became a sheet, and recent observations became one-line rows.
changed
Each check-in explains itself once, under Why check in?, and the evening's hold says what it is waiting for.
fixed
A day's record shows its food, with times and amounts, and its plan entries. Today points to Today's record once something is logged.
changed
Tapping the phase strip explains the phase you're in: What this is, Being observed and You do. The on-ramp records each week on a card of its own.
–

The first five minutes, and a Skin group.

Sign-in and onboarding were restyled, the terms and privacy page are a tap away, and skin symptoms joined the catalogue.

changed
Sign-in and onboarding were restyled. Protocol cards show a one-line summary, and the symptom step says how much time your choices add to the evening check-in.
added
Terms and Privacy are linked from sign-in, sign-up and Settings, beside the line An observation journal, not medical advice.
added
A Skin group joined the symptom catalogue: itching, rash or irritation, dryness or flaking, flushing or redness, and breakouts. It was pre-ticked at setup for every protocol.
changed
Trends follows your own lead symptom instead of always brain fog, and lists your whole Tracked panel.
changed
Food search finds plurals, words in any order, and a few common synonyms.
–

Care plans.

A client can carry a practitioner's protocol in n1lab, beside the diet: doses, food introductions, tests, rules and documents, and a week-by-week record of keeping to it.

added
A Plan screen holds a practitioner's protocol beside the diet study: the day's doses to tick or mark skipped, food introductions with weekly targets, tests to record, standing rules, and the plan's documents. The practitioner's own words are always shown as a quote.
added
An Adherence record, week by week, with no percentages and no streaks.
added
Enter your practitioner's plan yourself, in four steps from the document, ending in a Read-back that shows the plan as the Plan screen will. A half-entered plan is kept as a draft.
added
With an active plan, Trends opens with the plan: doses scheduled against doses taken each day, water against the plan's target, and a weekly card for each introduction food.
added
A plan test such as a transit marker test keeps one run open from Eaten at to First seen. Each time can be amended, and a sighting can be marked Not certain it was the marker.
fixed
Plan setup records each dose's own time and amount, and its read-back lists every item, later stages included. It says to set aside 15 to 20 minutes with the document in hand.
–

Three tabs, and faster pages.

The bottom bar went from five tabs to three, Today leads with the phase's own next step, and pages load faster.

changed
Five tabs became three: Today, Trials and More, with Trends, Notes and Settings under More.
changed
Today's main card shows the phase's own next step when one is due, such as the on-ramp's day-0 decision or an open trial window, and otherwise the check-in.
changed
During reintroduction, Trends puts trial results first.
fixed
Pages load faster. The app's server moved to Sydney, next to its database.

n1lab opens.

The n1lab web app opened at app.n1lab.app as a free beta, open for anyone to sign up.

added
Six protocols: Lion Diet, Carnivore, AIP, Paleolithic, Low-FODMAP and Custom. Each curated protocol can begin with an on-ramp that removes its food groups week by week, or start from today if you are already eliminating.
added
Phases you move through yourself: on-ramp, elimination, strict and reintroduction.
added
A morning and an evening check-in, scored against the symptoms you chose to track, plus food and the day's events.
added
Food trials. A challenge tests one food against your baseline, and a staple observes a food you eat every day. Each trial has three observation windows: 0–2h, 2–6h and 6–24h. At the close, each symptom was drawn against a shaded band of your 14-day baseline, the context noted at the start was shown again, and a confidence line counted how many observations agreed.
added
Today, Trends and Notes, with every date in your own time zone.
added
Export your record as a spreadsheet or as JSON, and delete your account, from Settings.
