MigrainePulse Tracker vs HeadLog

MigrainePulse Tracker helps you record migraine and headache episodes with the details that matter to your journal: your own trigger wording, severity, duration, pain location, and notes. Log privately in the moment, review your complete saved history on a real monthly episode calendar, and select any marked date to revisit its entries. The calendar marks only dates with saved episodes; an unmarked date does not represent a pain-free record. The saved-entry severity trend plots one dot for every saved episode in chronological order. It adds no points for dates without entries and preserves multiple entries from the same day. All-time entry summaries show counts, averages, and transparent trigger associations such as “Weather front • 3 of 6 tagged entries.” Small samples are clearly qualified, and every summary reflects only the entries you save for personal review. No account is required, and there are no ads, external analytics, or network dependencies. Your entries stay local on device, with optional Apple Health writes for new entries: headache severity and duration only after you connect it in Settings. The first release is free and focused on a private, local migraine journal.

HeadLog helps you track migraine and headache attacks with clinical detail — so you can understand your patterns and share precise records with your doctor. LOG EVERY ATTACK: • Start/stop attack timer with live duration display • Pain intensity scale 1–10 with color-coded severity • Side: left, right, both, or unspecified • Triggers: stress, sleep, food, weather, screen, hormones, alcohol, exercise • Symptoms: nausea, aura, light sensitivity, sound sensitivity, vomiting, neck stiffness • Medication taken and whether it was effective • Free-text notes HISTORY & STATS: • Full attack history with swipe-to-delete • Monthly summary: count, average intensity, total hours • Daily bar chart of attack intensity • Top triggers ranking PRIVATE & OFFLINE: • All data stored on-device with Core Data • No account, no cloud sync, no ads DISCLAIMER: For personal tracking only. Not a substitute for medical advice.
