Hi Product Hunt 👋

I built Gleamit because I kept walking out of the dentist's office having
already forgotten what he had told me. My dental history existed in
three places: a receipt somewhere, a vague memory, and my dentist's software
that I can't see.

Every app I tried was a brushing timer with a streak counter. Useful for about
a week, and none of them tracked the thing I actually wanted a record of - the
teeth.

So Gleamit starts from the tooth map: all 32, tap one to log a filling, crown,
implant or problem, with notes and a history you can scroll back through.
Around that sits the boring-but-useful stuff: brushing and floss streaks,
dentist appointments with their notes, a date of your last cleaning, when you last changed your manual brush or electric brush head, smile photos over time, a vault for dentist PDFs and X-rays.

Two decisions that make this app really cool imo:

1. No account, no backend, no analytics. Your dental history is on your phone
and nowhere else. Optional backup goes to your own Google Drive or iCloud -
I never see it. This also means the app costs me nothing to run, which is
why it can be a one-time unlock instead of yet another subscription.
2. It's a mirror, never a medical coach. Gleamit will never tell you your teeth are
unhealthy, never diagnose, never nag. It shows you your own data and stops.
Pro turns that into a PDF you can hand to your dentist - they do the
interpreting, not my app.

It's a deliberately small solo project, not a startup, and I'd rather keep it
sharp than make it big :)

I'd love to hear: what do you actually want to remember about your own dental
history? And for anyone who's tried tracking this - what made you stop?
