DreamMe vs Shotsy: shot tracker or journey tracker?

Shotsy is one of the most popular GLP-1 tracker apps, and deservedly so — if you ask in any GLP-1 community which app to get, it will come up. So how does DreamMe compare, and which should you actually pick? Full disclosure: DreamMe is our app, so read this knowing where we stand — but we'll be straight about where Shotsy wins, because for some people it's the right choice.

The short version

These apps now cover similar ground — shots and pills, side effects, weight, nutrition — so the difference is style, not checklist. Shotsy is the spreadsheet-with-great-charts approach: free core tracking you fill in yourself, polished medication-level charts, multi-medication schedules. DreamMe is the companion approach: AI does the food math from a photo or your voice, your logs get turned into weekly insights and a doctor-ready visit report, and Sushi keeps the habit alive.

Where Shotsy wins

• Free core tracking — genuinely free. Doses, side effects, weight, and nutrition logging without paying, with premium extras on top. If budget rules, get Shotsy.
• Charts.Its estimated medication-level curve and detail views are polished and much loved — Shotsy built its reputation on them. DreamMe has a medication-level chart too, but this is Shotsy's signature.
• Multi-medication power features. Separate schedules for multiple medications, oral GLP-1 support, and a dedicated maintenance mode for after you reach goal weight.
• 17 languages.More than DreamMe's 12 — credit where due.

Where DreamMe wins

• Food logging that does the work for you.Shotsy's nutrition tracking is manual entry (plus Apple Health import). DreamMe reads calories, protein, and water out of a meal photo or a spoken description — the difference between a habit that survives month six and one that doesn't.
• Your logs go somewhere. DreamMe folds side effects, meals, and weight into a weekly report — what changed, how your week compares with others at a similar stage (anonymized), one evidence-based experiment to try, never dose advice. Shotsy shows you charts; DreamMe also tells you what they mean.
• The doctor's report.Both export PDFs, but DreamMe's is a structured visit report — weight trend since starting treatment, dose history, side-effect timeline, nutrition averages — built to be handed across the desk, not a data dump.
• Personality. Sushi, missions, and rewards keep week 30 from feeling like week 3. Shotsy is a utility; DreamMe is a companion.
