Chikutto: Japan Vaccine Log

See what comes next

• The home screen shows your next plan and the vaccines that can be given now
• Vaccines that open within 60 days are listed with their dates
• When you record a dose, the app shows the days since the previous dose and the official interval
• The list shows each dose as a circle (given, planned, not yet). Switch to the chart to see everything from birth to 13 years

Easy to record

• Record several vaccines given together in one step
• Past dates are fine, so you can copy records from the maternal and child health handbook later
• Pick a clinic you entered before. Lot numbers and notes can be saved too
• Add vaccines that are not on the list, such as an early self-paid shot or an antibody injection
• Hide the vaccine your child will not get (for example the rotavirus vaccine you did not choose)

Plans and reminders

• Reminders 7 days before, 3 days before, the day before and on the day, at a time you choose
• Even without a plan, one reminder when the usual timing starts
• The plan calendar shows brothers and sisters together, with a color for each child

Any number of children, free

• Adding children costs nothing, and no other app or account is needed
• With two or more children, the home screen lists everyone's next plan, soonest first (today and tomorrow stand out)
• Switch children with one tap on the name at the top

Schedule and sources

• Usual timings and routine periods are based on the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare routine immunization guidelines and the JIHS immunization schedule
• Every screen shows which version of the schedule is used
• When the rules change, a new version of the schedule is delivered
• The app does not decide whether a vaccine can be given. Decide the dates with your doctor and follow the guidance of your city or town

Records stay on your phone

• No sign-in, no ads, no tracking
• Lock the app with fingerprint, face or PIN. While locked, reminders do not show names and the app is hidden from the recent-apps view
• Encrypted backup to a file is free
• 8 color themes, light and dark

Free and Pro

Free: records, plans, reminders, the list and chart, any number of children, your own vaccines, color themes, app lock and backup to a file

Pro (one purchase, not a subscription):

• Encrypted automatic backup to Google Drive (for changing phones)
• PDF of the vaccination record (for school, daycare or moving)
• Photos of the handbook pages (encrypted inside the app)
• Questionnaire mode (age in months and weeks, birth weight and past vaccines on one screen)

Your records and a note

Whether or not you have Pro, you can always view, edit and export your records.

Note: this app is a tool for records and reminders, not medical advice. It is not a substitute for the maternal and child health handbook. The schedule follows Japan's system.
