The Phaze alternative for people who want their whole week to make sense

It's the evening of day two after your shot. You've logged the dose, ticked a few side effects and maybe a glass of water. But you still can't answer the question you actually care about: is this queasy, not-hungry feeling something that happens every week, and are you eating enough to get through it?

A quick note: this page is written by the team behind Holt. Phaze details come from its App Store page and website, checked on November 1, 2026.

Why do people look for a Phaze alternative?

Phaze does a lot. It logs doses, charts estimated levels, tracks food goals and has an AI chat. When people go looking for something else, it's usually not about missing features. It's about how the week fits together:

• They want the "why", not just the log. Side effects and meals that line up with dose days, so a pattern becomes visible.
• They want the app in their language. Phaze's App Store listing shows 8 languages.
• They want less to remember on shot day. Not just where the last shot went, but where the next one should go.

Why people switch to Holt

Holt starts from your dose day and lines everything else up against it. That one design choice is what makes the rest work.

• Side effects you can measure. Slide nausea, constipation, heartburn, food noise, appetite or fatigue to a severity, or add your own. They sit beside your dose days, so "day two is always rough" becomes something you can see.
• Meals in one photo. Holt estimates calories, protein, fiber, carbs and fat from a picture of your plate, and the Home summary shows protein, fiber, water and calories against your goals.
• Your next injection site, suggested. Pick arm, stomach or thigh, left or right, and Otto suggests the next spot in your rotation. Phaze lists site rotation and a prep checklist; we couldn't find a next-site suggestion.
• A report with the questions already in it. Holt turns 30 days, 90 days or your full history into a doctor-visit PDF, with suggested questions for your prescriber.
• Fifteen languages, plus weight trends, widgets, a Live Activity and Apple Health sync.

What changes when you switch?

You keep the core of a GLP-1 tracker: shot and pill logging with reminders, an estimated medication-level chart, injection sites, meal logging, a side-effect log, weight, widgets, a Live Activity and Apple Health. Phaze and Holt are close on many of these, so the change is less about features and more about focus.

What changes is that Holt puts food and side effects at the center of the week. The photo scan gives you five nutrients, the severity sliders give each symptom a number, and the doctor-visit report adds questions you can take into the room.

What you'd leave behind is Phaze's Apple Watch app, its Android version (per its website), Ember, progress photos, streaks and lab entries. Neither listing describes importing from the other app, so most people start fresh on their next shot day.

Stay with Phaze if…

You log from your wrist, you're on Android, or you'd miss talking things through with Ember. Phaze also lists free dose tracking for your first medication, which is a fair reason to stay if that's all you need. If those aren't what you reach for, Holt is worth one dose cycle.

What we'd track in your first two weeks with Holt

1. Every dose and site. Let Otto suggest the next spot and see whether the rotation sticks.
2. A photo of most meals. Watch protein and fiber against your goals, especially the two days after a shot.
3. Side effects with a severity. A quick slide on the worst day gives the timeline something to show.
4. Weight two or three mornings a week, so the trend has a shape without becoming a daily verdict.
5. One doctor-visit report before your next appointment, compared with what you'd normally bring.

Try Holt for your next dose cycle

Whichever app you use, it records what you were prescribed and how you felt. Questions about the dose itself belong with your prescriber or pharmacist.
