Phoebe vs Aurora

YOUR PERSONAL HEADACHE EARLY WARNING SYSTEM Phoebe predicts headaches before they hit. Using Apple Watch biometrics and real-time atmospheric intelligence, Phoebe forecasts your headache risk up to 7 days ahead, so you can act before the pain arrives. Most headache/migraine apps only record pain after the fact. Phoebe predicts it before it happens. HOW IT WORKS Your Apple Watch passively collects sleep, HRV, heart rate, and activity data via HealthKit. Meanwhile, WeatherKit tracks barometric pressure, humidity, and temperature at your exact GPS coordinates - updated hourly. Our ML engine blends 27 biometric and environmental features into a personalized Blended Risk Score that improves with every diary entry you log. FREE FEATURES - Blended Risk Forecast: See today's and tomorrow's migraine risk on your Dashboard, powered by our ML prediction engine combining health data and atmospheric signals. - BioWeather Intelligence: 15 biometeorological conditions analyzed at your coordinates. Understand how pressure drops, humidity spikes, and temperature swings affect you personally. - 7-Day Forecast: View your risk for the entire week ahead. A pressure front arriving Thursday? You'll know by Tuesday. - Voice Diary: Hold the button and speak. "Severe right side, started an hour ago, took sumatriptan." Phoebe logs severity, location, triggers, and medication — without a single tap. Built for when it hurts too much to look at a screen. - Smart Journal: Every headache, trigger, symptom, and medication tracked with timestamps, pain location mapping, and severity scoring. Weekly trend charts show your patterns over time. - Ask Phoebe AI Chat: Ask questions like "What are my top triggers?" or "How did I sleep this week?" Phoebe answers using only your diary data - no internet knowledge, no guessing. - MIDAS Assessment: Complete the clinically validated Migraine Disability Assessment to measure how migraines impact your daily life. Share results directly with your neurologist. - Contextual Notifications: Phoebe alerts you when risk factors align - pressure dropping overnight while your HRV is declining. Act before the pain window opens. - Apple Watch Integration: Deep HealthKit support for sleep analysis, heart rate variability, resting heart rate, steps, and active energy. Your existing Watch does everything. PREMIUM SUBSCRIPTION (optional) The following features require an active subscription: - Deep AI Analysis: Advanced pattern recognition across your biometric, atmospheric, and diary data to surface compound triggers you wouldn't spot manually. - Correlated Insights: Cross-referenced analysis showing how sleep, weather, and your logged triggers interact to drive headache events. - PDF Medical Reports: Clinical-grade summaries covering your headache frequency, severity trends, trigger analysis, and medication effectiveness.

Aurora is a migraine diary that demands no effort during your hardest moments and delivers scientifically rigorous insights in your calm ones. One tap to record an attack. Details — later, when you can. Apple Watch, widgets, and Siri Shortcuts work without opening the app. WHAT'S INSIDE • One-tap logging — attack, prodrome, medication. From the widget or Apple Watch; attacks and prodromes also by voice via Siri. • MOH timeline — monitoring per ICHD-3 criteria. Aurora warns you when you're approaching the medication-overuse threshold. • Menstrual module — automatic classification of menstrually-related migraine (MRM/PMM). Risk-window forecast 48 hours in advance. • Trigger analysis — case-crossover design (Maclure 1991) with weekday stratification and Benjamini-Hochberg correction. No false "magic" insights: only statistically robust associations with 95% confidence intervals. • PDF report for your neurologist — automatic HIT-6 and MIDAS scoring, abortive medication effectiveness (2-hour pain freedom rate), attack calendar, methodology disclaimer. • Apple Health — two-way integration. Aurora reads sleep, HRV, wrist temperature and writes back attacks as standard headache events. • Weather and barometric pressure — logged automatically (WeatherKit, iPhone barometer); 24-hour pressure changes are tested as trigger hypotheses. • Custom triggers — add your own trigger factors beyond the built-in catalog, then copy your last entry in one tap. AURORA FOR CHRONIC MIGRAINE Aurora automatically detects transition to chronic form (ICHD-3: 15 or more headache days/month for 3+ months) and switches the interface: daily pain slider instead of attack counter, "headache-free days" metric, breakthrough peaks on the Home screen. AURORA FOR PREGNANCY AND BREASTFEEDING When pregnancy/breastfeeding mode is enabled, Aurora checks medications you log in the app against FDA categories and the LactMed database. Ergotamines are flagged with warnings, triptans are category C, acetaminophen is considered safest. This isn't medical advice — it's a reminder before you talk to your doctor. PRIVACY-FIRST • All computation happens on-device. • No third-party SDKs, analytics, or ads. • Data never leaves your iPhone except for syncing between your own devices via your Apple ID. • Delete = full deletion, including iCloud. AURORA PLUS (optional) Free forever: all logging, MOH warnings, basic menstrual module, 1 PDF report per month, HIT-6 and MIDAS. Aurora Plus adds: • Personal risk forecast trained on your data • Case-crossover trigger analysis with BH-correction • 2-hour pain freedom rate per medication • Unlimited PDF reports for your neurologist • CSV export for your neurologist • Face ID / Touch ID app lock • Family Sharing (iCloud) Aurora is a wellness app, not a medical device.
