C1B Care Log

A practical guide to setting up care profiles, building day plans, tracking appointments, reusing library items, and finding records when you need them.

Onboarding

When you first launch C1B, you will see a short set of onboarding screens before creating your first care profile.

  • Welcome: C1B keeps important care details together for yourself or someone you support.
  • Track Each Day: log medications, vitals, meals, fluids, hygiene, activity, symptoms, notes, and appointments.
  • Care Calendar: review completed days, today's progress, and upcoming care.
  • Coordinate Care: share care profiles with trusted people.
  • Compare Tiers: see what is included in Free, Plus, and Unlimited.
  • Create Your First Care Profile: add the first profile and start tracking care.

Plans and Access

Start with the free tier, then upgrade in the app when you need sharing, exports, Insights, multiple profiles, or advanced planning. To read or update a shared care profile, each participant needs C1B Plus or C1B Unlimited. Purchases are completed through your Apple Account in the App Store, and shared care profiles use iCloud sharing.

C1B Plus Monthly/Annual $7.99/month or $79.99/year Families and helpers who need sharing, exports, insights, or more planning power.

C1B Unlimited $149.00 one-time purchase People who prefer a one-time unlock. The same premium features as Plus, including read/write access to shared care profiles and new Plus features as they launch, without a recurring subscription renewal.

How to open the paywall

Open Settings, then Membership, then Upgrade to C1B Plus. You can also open Settings, then Plan Details, then Unlock Premium Features. C1B also shows the paywall when you try a locked feature such as sharing, multiple profiles, Insights, exports, or advanced day planning.

The paywall lets you choose Monthly, Annual, or Unlimited, purchase through the App Store, and restore previous purchases. Prices shown here are US prices and may vary depending on your chosen App Store.

Profiles

A care profile is the container for one person's day plans, calendar history, appointments, notes, library items, and settings.

NameThe required display name for the person or care record.
Date of BirthAn optional DOB field, useful for identity and care context.
Care StatusActive, Inactive, Paused, or Archived.
Emergency ContactsA free-text area for critical people and numbers.
NotesGeneral profile-level context that should travel with the care record.

Today

Today is the working view for a selected day plan. It shows completion progress, appointments for the day, and care entries grouped into sections.

  • Add entries such as meds and treatments, vitals, meals, fluids, hygiene, sleep, activity, visit notes, tasks, notes, calls, meetings, and custom items.
  • Set statuses, scheduled/start/completion times, details, notes, photos, sections, and instructions on each entry.
  • Search or filter the day, collapse completed sections, and use bulk tools to set status, set completion time, move, duplicate, or delete selected entries.
  • Duplicate a day, save a day as a template, replace or append a plan from a template, export the day, review the activity log, and generate a day progress summary.

Sections

Sections are the groups inside a day plan. Use the Today view's Sections controls to create a New Section, give it a name and optional description, choose where it appears, then add or move entries into it. Sections can be time-based, such as Morning, Afternoon, and Evening, or more general, such as General, Meals, Therapy, Errands, or Notes. Use whatever grouping makes the day easiest to work.

Calendar

Calendar is for planning and reviewing care over time. Switch between list and calendar modes, then choose Upcoming or History.

  • Create a New Day Plan for one or more dates, often from a template.
  • Open any day to review or work its plan, or open Insights for that date.
  • Select days or a date range to replace, append, delete, share, or export records.
  • Free planning supports dates up to 3 days ahead. C1B Plus or Unlimited unlocks planning farther ahead and broader range operations.

Orange dotOne or more appointments are scheduled on that date.

Selection circleAppears while selecting days for bulk actions. A checkmark means the date is selected.

Appointments

Appointments keeps visits separate from day plan tasks while still making them visible in Today and searchable from the profile.

  • Appointments are grouped into today's appointments, tomorrow's appointments, upcoming appointments, and past appointments.
  • Each appointment can store title, date/time, all-day status, progress status, icon/color, contact, address, questions, visit notes, and follow-up tasks.
  • Use a saved contact to fill contact name, role, and address, or save a manually entered appointment contact back to Contacts.
  • Create appointments manually or with smart add from text, images, or clipboard content when available.

Insights

Insights analyzes care records privately with charts and summaries. It is a C1B Plus or C1B Unlimited feature.

  • Choose a day, week, month, or custom date range.
  • Review charts and summaries based on the selected profile's care data.
  • Navigate from an insight back to a related day plan when available.
  • Export insight reports when you need to share or print them.

Library

Library holds the reusable building blocks for a profile. These items make day plans faster to create and keep repeated details consistent.

Templates

Templates are reusable day plans made of sections and entries. They are one of the fastest ways to turn a recurring routine into a ready-to-use day plan. Use templates from Today or Calendar to generate a day, replace a day plan, append entries to an existing day, or create plans across a date range. You can also save an existing day as a new template.

Many care routines change depending on the kind of day. Instead of forcing every day into one checklist, create a few templates that match real life and apply the right one when planning ahead.

  • Regular day: routine medications, meals, fluids, hygiene, movement, rest, appointments, notes, and any ordinary check-ins.
  • Treatment day: a focused plan for higher-attention days, such as chemotherapy or infusion visits. Sections might cover before leaving, the appointment itself, returning home, hydration or nutrition reminders, symptom observations, and questions to bring back to the care team.
  • Recovery day: a lighter plan for the days after treatment, surgery, illness, or a difficult appointment. It might emphasize rest, comfort measures, fluid and food intake, side-effect notes, temperature or symptom checks when recommended, and follow-up tasks.

Templates work best when they stay practical: use sections for the shape of the day, use Meds & Treatments or Saved Items for repeated entry details, and update the template when the care plan changes. C1B helps organize the plan; medication timing, doses, restrictions, and symptom instructions should come from qualified healthcare professionals.

Meds & Treatments

Meds & Treatments store reusable medication or treatment details such as kind, dosage form, route, dose amount, dose unit, instructions, notes, caregiver notes, icon, and color. When adding a medication entry to Today or a template, select a saved med/treatment to copy those details into the entry.

Contacts

Contacts store people, providers, pharmacies, addresses, phone numbers, email, websites, roles, and notes. Appointments can use a saved contact to fill the contact name, role, and address, and appointment details can link back to the saved contact. Visit Notes and transportation entries can reuse saved contact addresses, or appointment locations, for their visit location/address field.

Saved Items

Saved Items are reusable care entries for any care item type. You can save entries from Today or Templates, then choose Saved Items when creating a new day-plan entry or template entry. C1B copies the saved title, type, icon/color, structured details, dosage or location fields, instructions, and notes into the new entry. Deleting a saved item does not change entries that were already created from it.
