Phaze vs Mingo
Phaze and Mingo are both GLP-1 tracker apps for people on medications like Ozempic, Mounjaro, and Wegovy. Phaze is a GLP-1-specific wellness tracker for iOS with Estimated Levels, dose, injection-site and side-effect tracking, an Apple Watch app, and local-first AES-256-GCM encryption. Mingo runs on iOS and Android with a flamingo companion widget and Dexcom G7 glucose integration. Here is a factual, side-by-side look.

Key differences
Beyond the feature checklist, here is what really sets these two GLP-1 tracker apps apart.
Estimated Levels vs medication-level estimate
Both apps estimate your medication level over time: Phaze has an Estimated Levels pharmacokinetic curve and a Dose Cycle ring, and Mingo describes a personalized medication-level estimator. Phaze also adds injection-site rotation, a Taper Coach for titration, and side-effect tracking. Estimated levels are for information only and are not medical advice.
Companion mascot vs habit tools
Mingo includes a Tamagotchi-style flamingo companion as a home-screen widget. Phaze leans on a Lifestyle Score, streaks, daily check-ins, and a Perfect Day checklist. Two different approaches to staying consistent.
Progress photos, two ways
Both apps support progress photos: Mingo's Journey Card keeps photos, weight, and side effects from day one, and Phaze adds comparison modes including side-by-side, slider, ghost overlay, and a timelapse export. If you want richer photo comparison tools, Phaze goes further here.
iOS depth vs cross-platform reach
Phaze is iOS-only and ships an Apple Watch app, HealthKit sync, widgets, and local-first AES-256-GCM encryption. Mingo runs on both iOS and Android, markets local-only data storage, and integrates Dexcom G7. If you use Android or a Dexcom CGM, Mingo has the edge. If you want the deepest iOS and Apple Watch experience, Phaze is built for that.
Common questions
Mingo is free to download and offers paid premium plans; its premium plan unlocks the full feature set. Published prices vary across listings, so we do not state a single figure. Phaze also offers free core features, with an optional Pro subscription for advanced capabilities.
Yes. Mingo is available on both iOS and Android, which is a genuine advantage over Phaze. Phaze is currently iOS-only, built as a native app with deep Apple platform integration including HealthKit, an Apple Watch app, and widgets.
Both apps offer AI-assisted food logging. Mingo supports photo capture, barcode scan, and voice, and tracks protein and fiber. Phaze offers AI Meal Snap plus label, barcode, voice, and saved meals, and also tracks protein and fiber. The core difference is platform and the wider GLP-1 toolkit around the food log, not the food log itself.
Phaze does not currently integrate with Dexcom G7. Phaze syncs with Apple Health (HealthKit). Mingo integrates Dexcom G7 directly, so if Dexcom CGM integration is essential to your workflow, Mingo has the edge here.
Both apps support a range of GLP-1 medications. Mingo lists 12 named medications, including compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. Phaze tracks GLP-1 medications with dose tracking, injection-site rotation, titration support via Taper Coach, missed-dose guidance, and an Estimated Levels curve.
