A BPPV tracker that shows whether it's actually resolving.

What makes BPPV different

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common cause of vertigo. The spinning is brief but intense and triggered by head position — rolling over in bed, lying down, looking up at a shelf, or tipping your head back at the sink. It happens when tiny calcium crystals in the inner ear end up where they shouldn't be.

The good news is that BPPV often responds well to repositioning maneuvers such as the Epley. The frustrating part is that it can recur, and it's easy to lose track of whether a maneuver actually helped or whether things are creeping back. That's exactly where a simple, position-aware log earns its keep.

What to log with BPPV

• Which position set it off. Rolling over, looking up, bending down — capture the trigger so patterns become obvious.
• Duration and intensity. True BPPV spells are typically seconds to a minute. Logging duration helps flag when something doesn't fit the usual picture.
• Before and after a maneuver. Record episodes around each repositioning attempt so you can see whether frequency drops.
• Side and recurrence. Track how often it returns and whether it favours one side — helpful detail for your clinician.

See the recovery curve, not just today

Dizzin runs on-device statistics across your history and charts episode frequency and intensity over time. If BPPV is settling, you'll watch the line fall. If it plateaus or climbs after a maneuver, that's a concrete prompt to book a follow-up rather than waiting and wondering. Findings are labelled by confidence, and Dizzin is honest about what it can and can't tell from position-triggered episodes.

Give your clinician the full picture

Export a clean PDF for your appointment: episode frequency over time, positional triggers, response to repositioning, and recurrence pattern. It's far more useful than trying to remember how last month compared to this one.

Dizzin is a self-tracking tool, not a medical device, and does not provide repositioning instructions or diagnose BPPV. The patterns it surfaces are statistical correlations in your own logs, not medical advice. Learn and perform maneuvers only under guidance from a qualified clinician.
