Throb vs Lun

Log a migraine in one tap, even mid-attack, on a dark screen that won't hurt your eyes. Throb is a private migraine and headache diary you pay for once: no subscription, no account, no ads. ABOUT THROB Throb is a migraine and headache tracker for iPhone (iOS 18 or later) with an Apple Watch app. It is made for people with frequent or chronic migraine who need a reliable headache diary for themselves and for their doctor or neurologist. Everything is stored on the device; nothing is sent to the developer. LOGGING • Start an attack with one tap from the app, the Lock Screen widget, Control Center, the Action Button, Siri ("Log a migraine in Throb") or Apple Watch. • Attack mode is a dark, low-light screen. Tap the pain level as it changes to draw a pain-over-time curve, and log every dose. • Record where it hurts on a head map, plus symptoms, triggers, aura and prodrome, relief methods and notes. • Whole-day entries for daily or continuous headache, with no start or end time. • "Feeling one coming" notes early warning signs before the pain starts. • Log medication doses taken outside an attack, including preventives. FOR YOUR DOCTOR • Doctor report PDF: headache days, attacks, duration, peak pain, acute-medication days, how often each medication helped and its median time to relief, MIDAS disability score and the HIT-6 questionnaire. • A monthly count of acute-medication days, shown as information, never as an alarm. INSIGHTS • Calendar heat map, trends and a searchable list of every attack. • Co-occurrence: which triggers and symptoms show up with your attacks. Patterns only, never claimed causes. • Preventive treatment check: headache days per 30 days before versus since you started a preventive, with optional reminders from daily tablets to injections every few weeks. • Barometric pressure trend from the iPhone's own barometer, optional alerts on sharp drops, and an optional pressure forecast from Apple Weather. DATA AND PRIVACY • Works fully offline. No account, no analytics, no third-party SDKs, no ads. • Optional iCloud sync through your own private iCloud database. • Optional Apple Health: reads sleep and menstrual cycle, writes headache events. • Automatic local backups with restore, plus CSV and JSON export. • Import from a Migraine Buddy CSV export or a headache spreadsheet. • Face ID lock. PRICE Free: logging, attack mode, full history, calendar, search, backups, iCloud sync, export, Face ID lock and a doctor report for the last 30 days. One-time purchase, no subscription: doctor reports for any date range and all insights. LANGUAGES 20 languages: English, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Korean, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Arabic, Dutch, Turkish, Polish, Swedish, Hindi, Indonesian, Thai and Vietnamese. WHAT THROB IS NOT Throb does not diagnose, predict or treat migraine and is not a medical device. It records what you log so that you and your clinician can see the pattern. No streaks, no gamification, no community feed, no notification spam.

Lun is a migraine diary built around one simple truth: you cannot fill in a form while a migraine is happening. So one long press is all it takes to log an attack. The details can always wait until you are ready. Over time, Lun gathers your log into patterns you can actually use: when attacks come, how strong they are, what keeps recurring, and how sleep, cycle and air pressure play in. HOW YOU USE IT Hold the breathing circle on the home screen when an attack begins. The time is saved at once. Add intensity, symptoms and triggers once you are back on your feet, or leave it. WHAT YOU GET Log attacks with one press, unlimited. History and a calm calendar. Core patterns and triggers. When in the week and the day attacks come, and how strong. Reminders and an overview of your medicines. WITH LUN+ How air pressure, sleep and cycle connect to your attacks. A heads up if you near the point where acute medication, taken too often, can itself cause headaches. A tidy report you can bring to your doctor. PRIVACY IS THE WHOLE POINT Everything you log stays on your device, and syncs only through your own private iCloud. No server, no ads, no tracking. The only thing that leaves your device is a coarse, rounded location when you want to see air pressure, and it never contains health data. Lun does not diagnose. It shows patterns and points you to a doctor when needed. Lun is the first health app from Haug & Datter. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
