# Brain Tool Kit vs Migraine Tracker

The clearest difference is price: Migraine Tracker at Free against Brain Tool Kit's $17.99. Migraine Tracker also leads on rating (4.7 vs 4.3) and ratings volume (827 vs 6). Brain Tool Kit's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (86% vs 67%). On in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Migraine Tracker is free to download; Brain Tool Kit costs $17.99 up front. Brain Tool Kit sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and Migraine Tracker sells 17 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Migraine Tracker holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Migraine Tracker has 827 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 86% of Brain Tool Kit's written reviews are positive against 67% of Migraine Tracker's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Brain Tool Kit ships an update monthly, Migraine Tracker weekly. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
