The migraine tracker for people whose symptoms don't fit the "one attack" model. If your migraines aren't a clean start-and-end. If you have something most days. If you're vestibular and never know if you're "having an attack." If your worst part is the postdrome days after the headache lifts. postdrome is built for you. WHAT'S DIFFERENT • Continuous-symptom timeline. Intensity 0 to 10 over rolling time. Episodic-attack overlay if you want one. Both modes coexist. • A mode for the worst moments. When the worst hits, the screen goes black, the buttons get huge, and you can talk instead of type. Brightness drops the moment you open it. Built for photophobia, nausea, and the kind of brain fog where typing is impossible. • Triggers, surfaced. Once you've logged enough, postdrome shows you the patterns: time of day, day of week, what symptoms tend to come together. Free, day one. Honest when there isn't enough data yet. • Is your medication actually working? Did your rescue kick in fast enough? Did taking it earlier help? Is your $700-a-month biologic doing anything? postdrome answers all three: by medication, by attempt, over time. Built around the modern landscape (Nurtec, Aimovig, Ajovy, Emgality, Vyepti, Qulipta, Ubrelvy). • A doctor's report you can hand over. One-page PDF, free. Every report carries a verification code anyone can confirm at postdrome.app/verify. Your doctor, insurer, or disability reviewer drops the PDF on the verify page. The site recomputes the hash and validates the cryptographic signature, all in their browser, without postdrome's servers ever seeing the document content. • Apple Health, both directions. Reads 17+ symptom types you've already logged in the Health app: Headache, Dizziness, Nausea, Fatigue, MoodChanges, MemoryLapse, MenstrualFlow, and more. Day one of using postdrome you see your existing health data already on the timeline. • Your history comes with you. Lossless import from Migraine Buddy, Bearable, and Apple Health. Years of effort on another tracker don't get stranded. • Clinical instruments. MIDAS and HIT-6 questionnaires for tracking disability over time. ICHD-3 chronic-migraine threshold check and medication-overuse-headache (MOH) flag in every doctor's report. NO SUBSCRIPTION, EVER postdrome is free for everything that answers a question, including the doctor's report PDF. There's a one-time $14.99 purchase if you want the Apple Watch app, cross-device sync (iPhone and iPad), and the formal export templates (insurance prior authorization, disability claim SSDI/FMLA). Pay once, own forever. No ads. No data sales. No hidden tier. YOUR HEALTH DATA STAYS IN YOUR ICLOUD postdrome doesn't store your health data on our servers. Your symptom logs, medications, and voice memos live on your device, and (with Pro) sync via your own iCloud, never through us. Voice memos are transcribed on-device only. Sign in with Apple is the only auth provider; hide-my-email is fully supported. The first 7 days of any install need no account at all. postdrome is a self-tracking tool, not a medical device. We are not your healthcare provider. Nothing in the app is medical advice. If you have a sudden severe headache or other neurological emergency symptoms, call your doctor or seek emergency care.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ratings volume: Migraine Tracker at 80 against Postdrome's 1. Postdrome's advantage is device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, update cadence and ads there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Migraine Tracker sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per 3 months and Postdrome sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Postdrome holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Migraine Tracker has 80 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Migraine Tracker ships an update weekly, Postdrome every 8 days. The most recent releases landed on October 25, 2026 and October 14, 2026 respectively.
