Stop guessing your triggers. Start predicting them. Living with migraines is chaos. Tracking them shouldn't be. Haven is the intelligent companion designed to help you find calm in the storm. We combine a photophobia-friendly Attack Mode with powerful AI Trigger Discovery to reveal the hidden patterns behind your pain—hormones, weather, sleep, and more. WHY HAVEN IS DIFFERENT: Most apps feel like spreadsheets. Haven feels like relief. It’s designed for the moment you are in pain (dark, simple, 1-tap) and the moment you are well (insightful, proactive). KEY FEATURES: 1-Tap Attack Mode Designed for photophobia. A pitch-black OLED interface with massive buttons lets you log an attack in seconds without hurting your eyes. AI Trigger Discovery Our engine analyzes 37+ factors (sleep, weather, food, stress) to find your personal triggers. Trigger Map: See what increases your risk. Protector Map: Discover habits that keep you pain-free. Cycle Syncing & Hormones 60% of migraines are hormonal. Haven automatically correlates your attacks with your menstrual cycle phases (Follicular, Ovulatory, Luteal) to predict hormonal peaks. Sage: Your AI Companion Chat with Sage to understand your data. "How does rain affect my migraines?" or "Show me my medication usage." Sage observes patterns and asks the right questions—never prescribing, just guiding. METICULOUS TRACKING: Weather & Barometer: Auto-alerts when pressure drops significantly. 8-Zone Head Map: Log exact pain locations (behind eyes, neck, temples). Smart Prodrome: Track early warning signs like yawning or cravings. Doctor Reports: Generate PDF reports with your MIDAS score for your neurologist.

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.
