What is olne?
olne is an app for people with Parkinson’s disease and their families.
So you can choose what to do today, yourself.
Core features are free. Available on iPhone and Android.
olne lets you know when it’s time for the things on today’s list, such as medication and exercise, and lets you log medication, how you feel (ON/OFF), and symptoms with a single tap. Your entries come together in a symptom diary you can show your doctor as it is at your appointment. You can also capture tremor and other symptoms on video.
Doctor-supervised reading and a community where you can connect with others living with the same condition are in the same app. olne grew out of joint research with the Department of Neurology, Osaka University Graduate School of Medicine, and is operated by MovoMind, Inc.
Medication waves, symptom waves.
Parkinson’s changes over the course of the day
Parkinson’s symptoms can change over the course of a day. While medication is working, moving is easier; when it wears off, moving gets harder. People with Parkinson’s build each day around these waves.
Some people take medication five to ten times a day. Medication timing, daily rhythm, how body and mind are doing — keeping all of this in order on your own is hard. olne is there beside you, helping to keep things in order.
Medication
Non-motor symptoms that continue around the clock (depression, insomnia, pain, constipation, etc.)
* Symptoms vary from person to person.
We start from “I know what to do, but I can’t always do it.” Medication timing, staying hydrated, light exercise — olne gently suggests what you can do, at the times you’re able to do it.
What olne values
As a digital companion for your daily rhythm, olne values four things.
-
Timing your day
Shows what to do, matched to the time of day.
-
Caring for body and mind
Builds medication, exercise, and nutrition into daily life.
-
Celebrating small wins
Counts the days you did it, without blaming the days you didn’t.
-
Deciding for yourself
What to do, and which habits to keep — you choose.
Not “support,” but everyday “choice.”
Key features
olne helps in three ways: Organize, Learn, and Connect.
Organize: medication, exercise, and how you feel — at the right time
From waking up to bedtime, what you need, timed to your day.
-
Reminders for today’s tasks
From waking up to bedtime, olne shows medication, meals, hydration, exercise, rest, and more for each time of day, and lets you know with notifications.
-
Medication reminders and log
A notification arrives when it’s time for your medication. Tap “Taken,” and it’s saved to your medication log.
-
My routines
Add your own habits, like exercises or hobbies, in your own words, and include them in today’s tasks.
Also
- Exercise content: Delivers videos from the exercise program “PDit” and more as daily cards.
- Impulse awareness notifications: Awareness notifications help you prepare for impulse problems that are hard to talk about (impulse control disorders).
- Adding up what you’ve done: Each “Taken” and “Done” earns points, so you can see the days you kept going.
Organize
What’s hard to get across in the exam room — straight to your doctor.
-
Logging how you feel (ON/OFF) and symptoms
Log “ON” (easier to move) and “OFF” (harder to move) with a single tap. You can also log dyskinesia and symptoms beyond movement — such as a quiet voice, stiffness, constipation, or trouble falling asleep — with the time.
-
Symptom videos
Record tremor or stiffness at home on video, and show it at your appointment as it is.
-
Symptom diary
Brings OFF periods, dyskinesia, medication, sleep, and symptoms beyond movement together in one list by date and time. You can show the screen at your appointment as it is.
Also
- Getting ready for appointments: Add your appointments, and olne reminds you to fill in your symptom diary before each visit. You can also look back on your quality of life and how well your medication is working.
- Steps and sleep: Your steps and sleep are recorded without you doing anything.
For when you wonder, “How do other people manage?”
