Migrella

Do your migraines arrive with the weather? Migrella sees the pressure coming. It forecasts barometric pressure for the week ahead, tuned to how sensitive you are, and gives you an early heads-up before a swing โ so an attack doesn't catch you off guard. But weather is only one trigger. Log an attack in a few taps โ severity, where it hurts, aura, symptoms, triggers and medication โ from your iPhone, your Apple Watch, a widget, or just by asking Siri. Then Migrella finds the pattern: โข Trigger & Protector maps โ what statistically raises, and lowers, your attacks โข A daily migraine-risk read from pressure, sleep, cycle and your own rhythm โข A medication-overuse (MOH) safety guard before you cross the threshold โข A doctor-ready PDF โ history, MIDAS & HIT-6 scores, medications, triggers EVERY FACT, SOURCED What Migrella teaches and measures links back to ICHD-3, the American Migraine Foundation, the American Headache Society and NICE. YOURS ALONE No account. No cloud. No ads. Your diary stays on your device, and you can lock it with Face ID. Most daily tools are free. Premium adds the trigger maps, the 7-day forecast and alerts, Apple Health correlations, score trends, treatment tracking, period comparison and the full report โ Monthly (7-day free trial), Yearly, or one-time Lifetime. Payment is charged to your Apple Account; subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the period ends โ manage anytime in Settings. Migrella is a self-management tool, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent migraine, and is not a substitute for professional medical advice.

Pause

When your days feel different, it helps to have somewhere to keep track. Pause brings your menopause and perimenopause journal together: symptoms, sleep, mood, meals and daily routines. KEEP A RECORD OF YOUR DAYS Log how you feel, record hot flashes, and keep notes you can return to later. REMEMBER YOUR MEALS Save a meal photo and a short description. Add how you felt afterwards to build your own record over time. MAKE ROUTINES EASIER TO FOLLOW Create, edit and remove routines that fit your day. See what you recorded alongside them without assuming one caused the other. SEE PATTERNS IN YOUR ENTRIES Explore recorded trends and comparisons. Prepare questions for your healthcare professional. Your journal cannot diagnose a condition or prove what caused a symptom. KEEP YOUR JOURNAL ON YOUR DEVICE No Pause account is required. Journal records stay on your device, without a Pause server database or automatic syncing between devices. Export a copy when you want to keep or share it. OPTIONAL APPLE HEALTH CONNECTION Choose whether to allow read access in Apple Health. Keep tracking manually without connecting. ON-DEVICE AI, WHEN AVAILABLE Optional AI chat and summaries use Apple's on-device model on supported devices with iOS 26 or later and Apple Intelligence available. Availability depends on hardware, settings and model readiness. Core tracking, calculated insights and guides work without AI. AI can be wrong and does not replace professional advice. SUBSCRIPTIONS Pause Premium requires a subscription. Eligible new subscribers receive a 14-day free trial. Available plans, prices, trial eligibility and renewal terms are shown before purchase. Payment is handled by Apple. A trial converts to a paid subscription unless cancelled at least 24 hours before it ends. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the current period ends. Manage or cancel in your Apple Account subscription settings. Deleting Pause does not cancel your subscription. Pause is a wellness journal, not a medical device. It does not diagnose, treat or prevent any condition. Speak with a qualified healthcare professional about symptoms and treatment decisions.
