Pro-Act reads your Apple Watch and iPhone biometrics and surfaces migraine patterns up to 48 hours ahead. Raw health data stays on your phone. No account required. WHAT PRO-ACT DOES EARLY SIGNALS Continuous analysis of HRV, sleep quality, resting heart rate, and barometric pressure, grounded in published migraine research. When the patterns match your migraine history, you get an early heads-up -- often 24-48 hours ahead. TRACKING WHEN IT HITS Fast logging during an active attack. Record intensity, duration, symptoms, and triggers. The more you log, the sharper your pattern picture gets. PATTERN DISCOVERY After enough data, Pro-Act surfaces what's actually behind your attacks. Weather. Sleep. Specific HRV signatures. The patterns that have been hiding in your data the whole time. 5-4-3-2-1 GROUNDING ROUTINE When risk spikes, Pro-Act guides you through a five-step grounding routine. Specific, named, behavioral. Something to do, not something to feel. PRIVACY-FOCUSED BY DESIGN Raw biometric data stays on your device. On supported iPhones, risk analysis runs fully on-device with Apple Intelligence; otherwise an aggregated summary -- never raw health samples -- is sent securely for analysis. No account required. WORKS WITHOUT BIOMETRICS TOO Prefer not to share HealthKit data? Pro-Act provides insights through manual tracking alone. Log your attacks and discover patterns in your migraine history.

Living with narcolepsy means the day can turn heavy without warning. This app helps you stay ahead of it. It learns from your logged episodes when you're most likely to get drowsy during the day, and combines that pattern with live signals from Apple Watch (heart-rate variability, heart rate, sleep, daylight and activity) to estimate your current drowsiness risk — and warn you before a high-risk window. What you can do: See your live drowsiness risk — with a breakdown of why it's rising or falling Get an early warning before your predicted high-risk times Log sleep attacks, microsleeps, cataplexy and more in seconds Keep a clinical sleep diary — bedtime, sleep onset, awakenings, efficiency — auto-filled from Apple Watch sleep Track medications, including extended-release, with reminders and an intake planner Plan smart power-naps right before your dips Driving mode: tighter monitoring, earlier warnings and break reminders Export a clear report for your doctor Practical guides for everyday life with narcolepsy Private by design: Your data stays on your device. The model runs entirely on iPhone. Important: This app is a self-tracking and organization tool. It is not a medical device and does not provide a medical diagnosis. Risk estimates are guidance based on self-observation and wearable data — not a substitute for professional medical advice. Never rely on the app alone for decisions about driving or treatment; always consult your doctor.
