Head Pain Barometer shows an anonymous, real-time "pulse" of head pain around you — and the local environmental conditions that people often connect with it. NOW • See the share of people nearby who currently report head pain, and the average intensity. • Switch between "Nearby" and "All" to compare your area with everyone. • Watch the atmospheric pressure and its 3-hour trend. • Tap "It hurts" or "No pain" in a second to add your anonymous signal. ENVIRONMENT • Air quality (European AQI, PM2.5, PM10, NO₂, O₃). • Today's weather and a 48-hour pressure outlook that highlights upcoming drops. • UV index and pollen (birch, grasses, ragweed). PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up. • Your location is reduced to a coarse area on your device — precise coordinates are never stored. • Anonymous check-ins auto-delete after about 90 days. • No ads. We never sell your data. Head Pain Barometer provides environmental information and anonymous community statistics. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. Available in English, Russian and German.
