Migrania is a private migraine diary: log your episodes and medication, see your own data as charts, and export a PDF to bring to an appointment. It does not diagnose, treat, prevent, or predict migraines. For medical questions, please talk to your doctor. Keep a simple record of your episodes and the details you want to remember: • When an episode started and how long it lasted • How the pain felt and where • Medication you noted down SEE YOUR OWN DATA The Insights screen turns your entries into clear charts: timing, duration, pain, and medication across the time ranges you choose. It is simply your own data, shown back to you, so you can notice whatever you want to notice. EXPORT WHEN YOU WANT Create a PDF of your diary to keep for yourself or to share with whomever you choose, for example to bring along to an appointment. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your entries stay on your device, or in your own iCloud if you turn on sync. Nobody else can read them, including us. Optional analytics, if you ever choose to turn it on, never includes what you write. Migrania is here to help you remember and reflect. The rest is between you and your doctor.

Creatine is not a painkiller. It does not work on the day you take it — it works by saturation. Your muscle stores fill up over weeks and drain again when you stop. Brim turns that into one number you can actually watch. YOUR SATURATION, NOT A STREAK The number rises on the days you dose and falls on the days you miss, by roughly one to two percent a day. It is not a counter that resets to zero to punish you. It is an estimate of where your muscle creatine actually stands, from a model fitted to the published research — which means a missed day costs you exactly what it costs you, no more. A PLAN BUILT FROM YOUR BODY • A daily dose calculated from your body weight, not a flat scoop line • Standard or loading, with the real trade-off between them spelled out • A projected curve to the day you reach full • Reminders timed to when you actually take it SEE WHAT A BREAK COSTS Progress draws your saturation over time, tells you what a fortnight off would do, and counts the days back to full. Miss a day and you will see it move. That is the entire point. EVIDENCE, GRADED The library answers what people actually ask. Is loading necessary. Does creatine damage your kidneys. Does it cause hair loss. Is it different for women. Is it worth it after fifty. Every article carries a grade — Established, Emerging, Early or Myth — so you can tell a settled question from an open one instead of guessing. QUIET BY DESIGN • A Home Screen widget with today's number • Apple Health reads your weight so the dose stays right as you change; nothing is written back • No account, no sign-up, no email • Your log lives on your iPhone Brim Pro unlocks the full history, the forecast, protocol switching and the complete library. Logging your dose is free, always — a tracker that locks the tracking is not a tracker. Brim Pro is an auto-renewing subscription, offered yearly (with a free trial) or weekly. The price for your region is shown in the app before you buy. Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase, and the subscription renews automatically unless you turn it off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
