Do you keep a digital diary?

Just wondering if anyone keeps a digital diary for their symptoms, how they are feeling etc? Recently diagnosed and just started on medication so I want to make sure I can keep a diary of everything as I will likely forget by the time I see my neurologist/MS nurse. Any tips on what people found useful/helpful would be appreciated.

Hi from the UK, it wouldn't hurt to keep a diary and it would probably be helpful to see what triggers your symptoms. I have just started my treatment so it might help me too.

@I_am_Tom Hi, yes, I keep all my notes in a Word document. It is now quite lengthy. I keep a track of all my ailments, as well as my MS information. It's been really useful, especially when you are asked "when did this start?" and "when did you first notice this". It's not detailed, but dates, what happened, symptoms etc. I use that to produce a list of topics I want to discuss with my neuro for my annual visit.
