So the Bowel Scout works by asking 3 questions. 1. What is the structure of your poo? This uses the Bristol scale. 2. What was the colour? 3. How much effort/pain was there? Based on these answers, an entry is made in the journal.txt that will give an AI clues as to what is going on. If there is abnormal activity then an alert ⚠️ is triggered and noted in the entry with a health alert hashtag. This also automatically creates a high priority flagged scheduled reminder in the Reminders App for the next day as a follow up prompting a doctor’s visit.





I am on a mission to create “life context” that can be used by an AI to enhance and upgrade my life experience. Currently I have settled on a journal style system that allows me to record as many aspects of my day to day activities and interactions as possible. The system involves the creation of a .txt file that is laid out in an AI friendly way, easy to parse and human readable if needed. So far I have created 3 “apps” using Shortcuts which comes standard with iOS. I am having a ball using Shortcuts! So far I have a V1 finance, general entry and bowel health data collection systems.
