Choose Pep if you want dose, weight, protein and photo logging combined in a single all-in-one app, including support for retatrutide and other non-standard GLP-1 medications. Choose Veya if you want a provider-neutral record with symptoms, weight and body measurements in one exportable history, and reminders that escalate until the dose is logged. Neither app is the right answer for everyone.
Veya vs Pep, feature by feature
A chosen set of dimensions, not an exhaustive feature comparison, and it deliberately leaves out supply/vial tracking and split dosing, which neither app is being compared on here. Every cell, including Veya's, is stated as recorded in the underlying research file; "unknown" means unverified, not absent.
| Feature | Veya | Pep |
|---|---|---|
| Dose logging | Yes | Yes |
| Dose reminders | Yes | Yes |
| Escalating reminders | Yes | Not verified |
| Injection site rotation | Yes | Yes |
| Side-effect logging | Yes | Yes |
| Weight logging & charts | Yes | Yes |
| Body measurements | Yes | Not verified |
| Data export | Yes | Not verified |
| Food logging | No | Yes |
| Estimated medication-level curve | No | Yes |
| Provider-neutral | Yes | Yes |
* Not verified means we could not confirm this either way from the app’s own published material. It does not mean the feature is absent.
Where Veya is different
Veya's record is not tied to whoever prescribes the medication. Change providers, or move from a telehealth subscription to a local pharmacy, and the tracker does not need to be rebuilt: it was never built around a single provider in the first place, and Veya doesn't sell or prescribe medication itself.
Reminders repeat until a dose is actually logged, breaking through Focus and Do Not Disturb, and the dose can be logged straight from the notification itself, a gap confirmed absent across every app in the set including Pep. A dose taken later or earlier than planned is recorded as an ordinary entry rather than an error, with the schedule adjusting around it, because the app asks whether you took it rather than assuming.
The record itself is broad: doses with injection site shown on a six-zone body map, symptoms logged with severity on the day they happened, weight tracked against a goal as a trend, and body measurements across waist, hips, chest and thigh. History filters by kind, sorts by date, and exports as CSV, and logging works offline first, saving on the phone and syncing when there's a signal.
What Pep's reviewers report
Pep reviewers have reported core parts of the app not working correctly: a quantity multiplier that produces the wrong calorie and protein total, and a logged dose reverting to an earlier value after an update.
Reviewers of several trackers in this category, Pep among them, have also reported being charged despite cancelling within a stated free trial period; this is a category-wide pattern rather than one specific to Pep.
tried to use entry for tilapia filets, 1 is 90 calories, 20g protein. I had 2 filets so adjusted the quantity to 2, so it should read 180 / 40, but it said 360 / 80. If the app can't do simple math multiplying calories x 2, then how can I trust it with my medical information like shot dosages, weight calculation, percentages, etc.?... For $40 a year, not worth it.
After updating my dosage, when I logged the medicine it reverted back to the old dosage. Now I don't have an accurate estimate of medication in my system. I contacted support, and the never got back in touch with me.
What Pep does well
Pep combines dose, weight, protein and photo logging in a single app, and supports retatrutide and other non-standard GLP-1 medications alongside the standard branded options.
What Pep genuinely does well Dose, weight, protein and photos in a single app. Supports retatrutide and non-standard GLP-1s.
Which one to pick
If you want everything, dosing, weight, protein and photos, inside one all-in-one app, Pep covers more ground in a single screen than most trackers in this category. If you would rather a provider-neutral record with symptoms and measurements alongside doses, and reminders that keep prompting until the dose is logged, Veya is built around that instead. Reasonable people land on either side of this, and the honest answer depends on how much you value having everything in one app against a smaller, more focused record.
Is Veya better than Pep?
Neither is better in every respect. Pep combines dose, weight, protein and photo logging in one app and supports retatrutide and other non-standard GLP-1 medications. Veya is provider-neutral, keeps symptoms and body measurements alongside doses in one exportable history, and reminders escalate until the dose is logged.
Does Pep have bugs?
Pep reviewers have reported core parts of the app not working correctly, including a quantity multiplier producing the wrong calorie and protein total, and a logged dose reverting to an earlier value after an update.
Will I be charged after cancelling a Pep free trial?
Reviewers of several trackers in this category, Pep included, have reported being charged despite cancelling within a stated free trial period. This is a pattern across the category rather than one specific to any single app.
Does Pep support retatrutide?
Yes. Pep's own listing states support for retatrutide and other non-standard GLP-1 medications alongside the standard branded options.
Can I get my history out of Veya?
Yes. Veya's history can be filtered by kind and viewed in date order, and exported as CSV, alongside dose, symptom, weight and measurement records kept in one place. Check what export option Pep offers before you delete anything, if you decide to switch.
