### 4/5 — Nice and straightforward

*2025-12-07, version 5.4*

I’m at a place where I just need something straightforward to track my migraines: what days, the general severity, maybe meds. This app does just that. Nice and straightforward tracking with enough flexibility that I can adjust complexity as needed. What makes it 4-stars instead of 5 for me is that (a) the report date range can only be set to x days before “today” and not specific dates, and (b) the report dates don’t visually look like a calendar (which is helpful for me when comparing different things).

### 4/5 — Giving it a go…

*2025-12-05, version 5.4*

This was easy to use so far, this is my first entry. I liked that I could explain my symptoms. The app gives ample room to write out your symptoms. Thanks for a seemingly good design.  I’ll be back to let you know what I think after I have used the other functionality.

### 5/5 — Pain

*2025-06-16, version 5.2*

This app is very easy to use and you can easily adjust it

### 5/5 — Effective and Easy

*2025-06-15, version 5.2*

I wanted something simple to track my son’s headaches. This is the only app that was ready to go from the beginning and captures exactly what I need.

### 5/5 — Helpful

*2025-06-14, version 5.2*

It is really easy to use and it helps  to keep track of my migraines

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2025-05-30, version 5.1*

Easy to use and easy to track and review. Breaks it down into relevant symptoms to include both migraine and headaches.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-05-21, version 5.1*

A very easy way to keep track of my symptoms for my neurologist. It was easy to add my meds and symptoms. Each day I get a reminder to enter my experience and there’s a note section for specific. I like how there’s a chart and a way to send to my doc. Really helpful

### 5/5 — Quick Easy

*2025-05-02, version 5.1*

So far so good especially when in the throes of a migraine.

### 4/5 — Pretty good app

*2025-04-15, version 5.1*

I like the logical layout. The more I use it the easier it gets. I’d like to be able to track prodrome and postdrome. It’s a good app and very helpful when I’m in neurologist appointments.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-04-05, version 5.0*

I have had horrible headaches for a very long time and this app helps me keep track. I love it.

### 4/5 — Good App

*2025-03-19, version 5.0*

It has the reports that are helpful in figuring the patterns and behaviors of Migraines.

### 5/5 — Easy to use and quick

*2025-03-13, version 5.0*

I love this app because it’s so easy to use. I have another app installed and I couldn’t stand the million questions it would ask me about me migraines. When I’m having a migraine the last thing I want is to stare at my phone answering the same questions. My migraines are always the same so it gets repetitive. I found this app and decided to try it and I love it so much more. It’s simple, only asks you the important stuff, and is quick. I’m in and out within a minute depending how much I write in the notes section. So if there’s anything different I’ll make note there. I also make note of my mood so it has a double use. I would definitely recommend it!

### 5/5 — Easy to use and customize

*2025-03-11, version 5.0*

This is one of the easiest migraine trackers I’ve used. I like that you can customize all of the symptoms and easily go back a few days to enter information if you forgot. It is also simple to export a report and have it emailed to your doctor.

### 5/5 — Neurologist recommended

*2025-02-16, version 4.0*

Easy to use and can easily add individualized symptoms and treatments. Review charts with neurologist knowing that data is accurate allowing for best treatment options.

### 5/5 — I needed this

*2025-02-03, version 4.0*

I found this app highly useful for migraines tracking when the doctor asks me how many headaches I’ve had since my last appointment.  Very thankful for this a military veteran.

### 5/5 — Loveeeee the simplicity!

*2025-01-29, version 3.6*

If you’re looking for a quick, simple migraine diary this is it!!!! If you’re having a headache, you don’t wanna have to put in all this info that all the other apps ask. This app asks the simple stuff regarding symptoms while you are on a migraine attack. It literally takes seconds to put info in. The notes at the bottom help as well to type out what triggers may have caused it or any notes you may need to communicate to your doctor. This is the only migraine diary/tracking app you need!! And trust me I have downloaded lots!!

### 5/5 — So easy to use!

*2025-01-27, version 3.6*

This is the best app I’ve found for tracking my migraines. Really easy to use and customise. Love the export feature too!! I would love to see an import feature to transfer logs from other places or a web front end for adding episodes.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Not free

*2025-08-16, version 5.4*

Apps not free, you get the Pay wall after downloading

### 1/5 — Self care win?

*2025-02-15, version 4.0*

It is unhinged that when you log a migraine 7 days in a row it says “self-care win!”

### 2/5 — Extremely Basic Tracker

*2024-08-16*

If you're looking for a super basic tracker, don't have many migraine symptoms, and don't use various treatment methods, this app would be great for you.

If you have more than a few default symptoms and take more than an OTC medication, then this app is not for you.

You can only record your highest pain level, there is no time tracker to record the length of your migraine, and if you want to track more than super basic symptoms or something that isn't just an OTC med, then you need to pay for a subscription. 

If you're looking for a comprehensive headache/migraine tracker to actually track and compile data, this isn't what you're looking for. 

If you just have some occasional migraines that don't have symptoms or require more than Tylenol or ibuprofen, this app will work just fine for you.

### 2/5 — Just Downloaded

*2022-12-19, version 1.1*

Your making me write a review before I try out the app? For this I give you 2 stars good sir, good day. I said good day!

### 3/5 — New user

*2023-02-15, version 1.2*

Just started. Can’t wait to try it.

### 3/5 — Have a lot left to explore

*2023-02-09, version 1.2*

Weird to rate an app I haven’t used yet just to unlock features. Anyway, using this to track information for my doctor.

### 3/5 — Tracker

*2023-01-19, version 1.1*

Haven’t even used the app yet but I’ll take unlimited access whatever that entails.

### 3/5 — Tracker

*2023-01-13, version 1.1*

First time user long time with headaches

### 3/5 — Helpful

*2022-11-09, version 1.1*

The app is helping me because it is giving me more options and more

### 4/5 — Trying it out

*2025-12-08, version 5.4*

Plenty of options, more reviews after I use the app for a while.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — So simple, so helpful

*2026-04-04, version 5.4*

I’ve been tracking my migraines on this app for over 3 years and it could not be more helpful. Ensuring I know when I’ve taken certain meds, keeping track of my symptoms and triggers and treatments— it’s extremely useful. And the layout is so simple and easy to navigate. Highly recommended!!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-02-04, version 5.4*

Using this app as I forget to fill in the paper diary from the hospital. My neurologist was impressed when I handed him the print out.  I like the ability to include your own symptom tracker too.

### 5/5 — Headache teaching

*2025-12-01, version 5.4*

Great for tracking migraines especially to show to your doctor

### 5/5 — Best Migraine Tracker App!

*2025-11-09, version 5.4*

Have been in search for an app to track my migraines, and this by far is the best user-friendly and visually appealing tracker. And the additional features of being able to export the data is cherry on top.

### 5/5 — simple & to the point!

*2025-09-04, version 5.4*

Love this for the simplicity! I’ve tried a few different trackers and while it can be nice to have so many options of things to track and I’m sure my medical providers would appreciate the info, I found I avoided tracking my headaches and migraines because they took me through *too many* questions. This one is quick and simple, but still customizable enough (even on the free version) to track a few other specific markers you might want to keep track of.

### 5/5 — So easy to use

*2025-08-14, version 5.4*

I really like how easy this app is to use. It doesn’t ask you a ton of questions, it just asks the main ones. I have to use a migraine journal for my doctors to see how many I get a week, and this is by far the easiest one and I love it!

### 5/5 — Love the simplicity!

*2025-07-27, version 5.4*

I just wanted a simple app where I could log a daily pain level and whether or not I took medication. This is perfect! Some of the other apps had me going through so many questions and being very precise about when the attack started and ended when it’s kind of hard to tell for me sometimes.

### 5/5 — Keeps me accountable

*2025-07-10, version 5.4*

This app has been a huge help for me and my chronic migraines. I tried other ways but this is perfect to help me for my quarterly neurology appointments!

### 5/5 — Easy to use

*2025-06-24, version 5.3*

Easy to use tool and the ability to export the data has been very helpful when meeting with my neurologist

### 5/5 — Good

*2025-06-21, version 5.3*

So far so good
