Huge Disappointment
I rarely write app reviews but this is bad enough that it needs to be said.
I’ve been using the CEFALY device for years. The device itself is amazing and does a great job on bringing my constant migraine down to bearable levels.
This app is frustrating and - in my opinion - worthless.
For starters - why do I have to input the PIN to pair my device EVERY SINGLE TIME I USE IT? You should only need to pair the first time and then it should retain the information for subsequent sessions. Almost every other Bluetooth device I’ve used does this. Why not this one?
Especially since when I’m using the device, I’m in pain and having trouble seeing clearly. A huge miss on the part of the developers.
I wanted to like this app. There are some nice things in the intensity tracking and charting that I’d really find useful - I think - if I could use them.
As it is, I will continue to use the CEFALY Connected, but this app is going in the bin until and unless it gets a lot of improvement.
Incredibly disappointed that the app not only doesn’t help, it actually makes my migraine worse while trying to navigate this hideous appShow lessMagier
Underwhelming
Have been using the app as a headache diary because it came with the 400$ device I bought. That’s a whole other review. But today, all my logs are gone, and the app appears to hang (cannot access settings or “back”) until being restarted. Also, the “export” feature does not export the logs themselves (and even the ones it does are not complete) so it is worthless as a headache diary unless you are willing to look at each individual day (which I was since I had two weeks logged already) but now they are gone. Find a different app to log your headaches. One that is reliable.Show lessAmiee_101
Buggy have to sync every time
You have to sync every time you use your cefaly and it had no memory of the previous pairing. Logging migraine requires going through all questions and cannot skip any answers. There are no options to just log a migraine episode. It would be great to be able to use the cefaly and sync the device without having to pull it off to look at the pairing number to enter. I’ve memorized it by now so it’s a mute point but it is inconvenient. The cefaly dual work just as well and you don’t have to worry about the tech glitches. And no need to try to track anything and become frustrated with the app.Show lessbrowndinodog
App is frustrating
I was hoping to track treatments and migraines with the app, but it has never worked well and seems to be getting worse. It does not record maximum strength correctly, and will often fail to record my sessions at all. If I start recording a migraine episode it records the start date in the 1960s and will not let me edit.
I took screenshots of these issues to send to support and they suggested I go to coaching. The coach did not call me back.
I started the heal your headache 123 program at the same time as this device, so I’m not sure it’s even doing anything.
Read and follow heal your headache before shelling out money on the device.Show lessiebbbg

Hi, thank you for reaching out to us. We are sorry to hear that. Your feedback is highly valued as it helps us enhance your experience with our service! We would like to put you in contact with our customer service team, what's your email address?App is terrible and unreliable for what it is to do
The device is great. The app is HORRIBLE. I’ve contacted them and get the same response as others before me, an offer to watch coaching. That won’t help the faulty data and inaccurate results it records. Once the phone goes to sleep or the screen isn’t being touched, the strength of treatment is still there on a graph, the time often freezes and is inaccurate, and when you log your data and use the multitude of graphs and tables they provide, they are wrong. It’s useless. I chose this model for the reliable data to provide to my doctor. This makes it useless and detrimental.
There is also no option to delete an accidental data point - say you started but it immediately needed to stop because you needed to enter the pin, again, that data point can’t be deleted. Don’t looks like I had a migraine for 30 seconds and that’s all the treatment I needed. Followed by a full session.
PLEASE FIX THIS APP TO MAKE IT WHAT YOU ADVERTISE IT TO BE.Show lessteamsmith13

Do yourself a favor and buy the cheaper Cefaly that doesn’t connect to an app. The app simply DOES NOT WORK. To get the device and app to connect with each other, you’ve gotta put in a PIN, which is one of the two numbers on the back of the device, but the back of the device will already be attached to your head. If you memorize the PIN like I did, it will often still not stay connected. The app will often stop logging a migraine that I have recorded, and then it will randomly start recording a migraine that I’m not having! I thought this could be really nice to have all migraine info in one place, but this app just does not work. The customer service person who responded to me assured me that the app would save my login info. Alas.Show lesssonyaflorence
Terrible app, shouldn’t charge more for Bluetooth devices
I have the same comments as everyone else. The app doesn’t work. The only thing it can do is se what level of pulses I’m getting during the treatment. It doesn’t log to compare. Charging people more for the Bluetooth enabled cefaly define to use with this app is a complete scam. The price between Bluetooth and no Bluetooth should be the same until the app can get figured out. Though it’s clear from the consistent reviews that the app isn’t going to change anytime soon.Show lessAmandalynn0223

This is the worst app EVER. Nothing works. Like nothing. If I could give this app zero stars I would. The Bluetooth functionality is non existent. The app is completely unresponsive. It won’t let you track a migraine. It doesn’t allow you to manually log a migraine and even when it looks like it’s actually logging your migraine, the log somehow disappears. I could go on and on about how horrible this app is, but I honestly just don’t wanna waste any more time with it. It literally has given me a migraine. Cefaly should be ashamed at how dysfunctional this app is.Show lessHurricane716

Pairing is kind of a nightmare and there are no in app controls that actually work. I don’t even really know why there’s an app if it works this poorly. A shame!foreverago
They call it ‘chat’…
The ‘chat’ is not a chat. It’s a survey. It doesn’t matter really, because of going through the survey I’m forced to create a login, which doesn’t work. I just receive an error every time. "It was not possible to create the request to verify the email." There’s no option for help, just chat, which only leaves the option of creating a login. Annoying. The website has annoying advertisements like a free game app or a recipe blog and doesn’t appear to offer any advice or support for the app. It does have an email of which I can send questions. I’m already over it though. Seriously? A store with ads? Sheesh.Show lessFrauPflaume
