SymTrac™ HIVES is a free iPhone app that helps people with chronic spontaneous urticaria (CSU) track the severity of symptoms and the impact on their life over time. The data recorded can be viewed in easy-to-read progress trackers and shared with healthcare professionals to enhance consultation time and support decision making.
Funded by Novartis. Co-developed with a leading national charity, Allergy UK, SymTrac™ HIVES allows users to make the most of their vital consultation time by providing a clear picture of how their symptoms have changed since their last appointment.

Is this app for me?
SymTrac™ HIVES has been designed for people with CSU. You may not be familiar with the name, but you may recognise the red, itchy hives (a form of rash this is also known as nettle-rash, wheals or welts). These hives appear without warning, last at least six weeks and can suddenly reappear after having cleared. The hives may also be accompanied by swelling of the deeper layers of the skin, this is known as angioedema.
