A weekly tic diary for families

Do more than 'watch and wait'. Track what you're noticing once a week, see how tic activity changes over time, and walk into your next appointment with a clearer picture.

Turning 'watch and wait' into something you can actually do

In the first year after tics start, many families are told to 'watch and wait'. That can feel like doing nothing while you worry and try to remember what's been happening.

famtic turns that year into a simple weekly routine: once a week you sit down, away from your child, and note what you've been noticing. Motor tics, vocal tics, and how active they've felt.

Over a few weeks, you get a clearer picture of how things wax and wane. When it's time to see a neurologist or therapist, you're not relying on 'it feels worse lately'. You have a calm, structured diary to bring into the room. famtic helps you show the story of this first year — a record, not a remedy.

Start your first week

Is this for us?

This is for you if...

Tics started roughly within the last year (or still feel fairly new).
You've been told to 'watch and wait', are on a waitlist, or have a first appointment coming up.
It takes about 5 minutes, once a week.
You'd like something more concrete than 'I think it's better/worse' when someone asks how things are going.
You care about privacy and prefer tools that keep data on your device (no account, no cloud, no ads).

This might not be the right fit if...

You're looking for a daily app focused on changing or suppressing tics.
You want a diagnostic or treatment tool rather than a diary you can bring to appointments.
You need real-time tracking, alerts, or messaging with clinicians inside the app.

How it works

Check in once a week

Once a week, away from your child, you answer a short checklist about motor and vocal tics: how often they've shown up and how intense they've felt. It takes about 5 minutes.

See patterns over the first weeks

As the weeks go by, famtic turns your check-ins into simple trends over 6-8+ weeks. You can see how tic activity naturally waxes and wanes during this first-year 'watch and wait' period, without red/green alarm charts.

Bring a clearer picture to appointments

When it's time to see a neurologist or therapist, you can export your diary to share. Instead of trying to recap months from memory, you bring a calm, structured record of what's been happening at home, in a diary that keeps everything local to your device.

Why famtic works

A structured approach built for families in the first year

Weekly beats daily

Tics naturally wax and wane. Weekly check-ins reveal real patterns without the noise of daily tracking.

Quick and sustainable

A check-in takes about 5 minutes. A weekly rhythm that fits into real life.

Clinically grounded

Based on a validated parent-reporting scale. Clear weekly check-ins to share with your care team.

Right timeframe

Designed for the 6-8 weeks where real patterns emerge. Enough time to see what's actually changing.

Patterns become visible

Over several weeks, the diary shows how tic activity naturally rises and falls — a clearer picture to share at appointments.

A record, not a remedy.

Privacy, by design

Your tic data stays on your device

Your diary entries never leave this device. No account needed. Works offline.

No personal tracking or ads

The diary has no ads or personal profiles. After Safe Harbor, limited anonymous in-app usage analytics may stay on to improve famtic unless you turn them off. The website only uses privacy-friendly, aggregate analytics.
