A bad migraine day is hard enough to get through — you shouldn't also have to reconstruct it from memory three days later for a doctor who wants specifics. Migraine and Headache Tracker logs an attack in a few taps and keeps the details around it — stress, food, weather, and, if you connect Apple Health, sleep and your cycle — so patterns can show up in your own data instead of staying a guess. You've probably tried the notes app or the mental tally of "was it the wine or the weather." It falls apart by the third attack — by the time you're sitting across from a doctor, the details are gone: the skipped lunch, the bad night's sleep, the pressure drop, the hormones. Log the moment it happens, and let the app hold onto everything else. A FEW TAPS WHEN IT HURTS MOST - Log a migraine in a few taps on a dark, quiet screen — always free, never behind a paywall - Track pain level, where it hurts, how it feels, symptoms, and the medication you took - An optional 20-second daily check-in records stress, hydration, caffeine, alcohol, skipped meals, screen-heavy days, common food triggers, and early signs — even on days nothing happens, because "normal" days are what make the bad ones meaningful SPOTS PATTERNS, NOT GUESSES - The Trigger Report compares what was different on your attack days against your usual days, and waits until there's enough of your own data before saying anything - With location allowed, an attack you log as it happens gets the barometric pressure and its trend attached automatically - Optionally reads sleep and menstrual-cycle data from Apple Health, and can save your attacks to Health as headache entries - Only ever says a factor is "associated with" your attacks — never that it "causes" them WALK INTO YOUR NEXT APPOINTMENT PREPARED - Builds a PDF summary of your attacks, this month's calendar, your medicines, and your top possible triggers, instead of reconstructing three months of headaches in a 15-minute appointment - A medication-overuse counter shows how many days you took as-needed medicine in the last 30 and flags frequent use as worth discussing with your doctor — information only, never dosing advice BUILT FOR REAL LIFE - Someone who's had migraines for years and still can't say what sets theirs off - Someone newly diagnosed, trying to give their doctor more than "it just happens sometimes" - Someone tracking hormonal or menstrual migraines, cycle over cycle - Someone told to "keep a headache diary" who wants one that does the remembering for them PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account, no login. Your attacks, check-ins, and reports stay on your device and are never uploaded to us. To add weather, your approximate location is sent to Apple Weather — never to us. Apple Health data stays on your device. FREE AND PRO Logging attacks, the daily check-in, the calendar, cycle tracking, the medication-overuse counter, and the Risk Today level are free, and your first full Trigger Report is included. Pro keeps the Trigger Report up to date and adds the reasons behind Risk Today, the doctor report PDF, and which medicines have helped you most — monthly, annual, or a one-time lifetime purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period; your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple ID account settings. Migraine and Headache Tracker is an informational diary, not a medical device. It does not diagnose or treat any condition and does not give medical advice. Talk to your doctor about your symptoms and medicines. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Stop trying to remember your last migraine well enough to describe it later. Log it once, and let Migraine and Headache Tracker do the remembering.
