Peptide Tracker App Adds Split Dosing and Custom Compound Builder

Los Angeles – September 11, 2026 -- Peptide Tracker, a free iOS and Android app for logging peptide protocols, has rolled out three updates -- versions 2.15.0 through 2.17.0 -- adding split-dose tracking, a fully custom compound library, and new organization tools at no cost.

The app now supports doses drawn from two separate vials

When a single vial doesn't hold enough liquid for a full dose, users can split the draw across two vials, with the app guiding them through each vial's own syringe markings. The dose history log then reflects the split accurately. The setup process also now asks how a dose is measured before showing matching units, reducing mix-ups between drug amount and syringe marks.
