Easy to use , good information to record. It asks for things I never even thought of. I was even able to record the information while having a migraine . It wasn't confusing to me . And if you have migraines you know how hard it is to think sometimes. When I go to make my doctor's appointment I will have a good record for him to examine.
As someone who had her first severe migraine at the age of 2, I have lived with these all my life. Never could I of imagined how much this app would help me in my journey. It does so much more than just track your migraines and I dont have one negative thing to say about it. I love this app so much I would paid any amount to have access to it. I can't believe it is free and I just want to thank this app company from the bottom of my heart for creating this to help someone like me. It's GREATLY appreciated. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!

Its very easy to use, but also very thorough. I like that i can just tap images to enter data. It makes it fast and easy to use when you have a migraine. Other trackers require me to type in most of the data. Thats hard to do during an attack.

With cluster headache there are many pointless questions and when I have it on I would not like to go trough all of them. So some kind of reordering/disabling the questions would be good. Why not? It is not asking all the questions anyway? I love how easy it is to track the seizures and how it tracks semi-automatically my sleeping and wake-ups! Keep on good job,this is important data!
Francina Martinez
Helps me mange my migraine headaches and report the server of my headaches with my doctor. With this report were able not only show my migraine but also how long it lasted. It was a bit concerning when it last 2 - 3 days straight off and on. My doctor saw the Migraine Buddy monthly report and sees I'm having too many headaches, he exspects that it sounds like my allergies to Pollen. He ask me a few questions about my allergies. He going to refering me a Allergies Specialist, to help me get a better control. In the meantime he gave me a shot for my current pain, 5 hours later; I'm now feeling GREAT! Thank you Migraine Buddy
Carissa Bailey
This app has been great for me. I get migraines once every week or two and finding time to journal them is difficult. Not to mention I can't always think of everything I should right down. This app makes it much easier and enjoyable to log my migraines.

Thanks for your continuous support Francina!
Thank you for updating us ! We are so happy to hear that one's again we could play a part in finding out more about your migraines. We are so happy to hear you are feeling better. Wishing you all the very best! Jenny This app has been great for me. I get migraines once every week or two and finding time to journal them is difficult.

Healint May 21, 2017
Thank you Carissa. Glad to hear the app is helping you track down you migraines. Jenny This has a way of knowing when I'm asleep for a period of time. I am impressed by that alone! I just wish it had a hot flash button. I had a hysterectomy about a month ago, and had to record a migraine. This would be helpful to automatically turn the menstrual cycle off to start on menopause.
Healint May 17, 2017
Thank you for your suggestion and continuous support Melissa. I will pass on your suggestion to our developers. We are actually thinking of improving the menstruation page in the app. Please bear with us as it takes time and keep an eye on the forthcoming updates. :-) Jenny Brilliant tracker - I never realised how often my headaches occurred until using this. Good info to make the doc sit up and take notice. Love the suggestions to help you track details, and it helps you realise how many others log the same details. Find am noticing more about my migraines & adding it to my logs. Wouldn't be without it now!
Healint May 28, 2017
Thank you Sharon. Glad to hear the app is helping you tracking your migraines and finding your triggers. Jenny My daughter is 16 yrs old & just had her 1st migraine it lasted 187 days. We are now pain free &this so will be so helpful to understand what causes them or any help what so ever. Thanks for all that you do.
Healint May 11, 2017
Thank you for your kind words Kassandra. Glad to see the app is helping your daughter fighting against migraines. Let me know at jenny@healint.com if we can help her further. Jenny Storing information is ok however the layout is a bit cumbersome and moving around the app initially was a bit annoying. It's great for keeping track of migraines...so it does its job. I appreciate this app.
Healint May 16, 2017
Thank you for your feedback Jodi-Ann. A 3* review means that you encounter serious issues with the app. Please contact me at Jenny@healint.com to discuss this further and hopefully I can grab the missing stars back. :-) Jenny Thank you so much for this. This is really helping keep track of my pain and is very dyslexic friendly with the layout. I also note my anxiety and depression levels, which actually helps me remove it a little, from inside my own head, and register the issues in a healthier manner. I really like your app. I think it will help my anxiety when communicating with my doctors also!
Healint May 18, 2017
Thank you for you kind review Gabby. Your support is highly appreciated by the team. Jenny It's very helpful with tracking headaches. The only thing I (and my doctors) would appreciate having added is a function that shows where the headache began and where it ended. For example if it starts in the back right part of my neck and exist there for multiple hours and then permeates throughout the rest of my head. I want to be able to document exactly where it started, where it leads, and where it ends. Other than that this app is excellent and I recommend it to everyone!
Healint May 30, 2017
Thank you for your suggestion Tyler. I will inform the developers. Meanwhile you can add any information you wish to in the note section of the migraine record.
Please let me know at jenny@healint.com if you have any more suggestions to share in order to improve the app and maybe grab the missing star back :-) Jenny I've been using this for around two months and it is brilliant for recording really useful information about migraines very easily. It's made me aware of a bad trigger that I wasn't aware of which fellow migraine sufferers will understand is a big deal. Now I know if I have to do some heavy lifting type work to really pace myself and go slowly or better still get someone else to do it. I hadn't made the link with strain from physical work and migraine before. I'm impatient with fiddly apps and this definitely isn't fiddly - it's very easy to use and the reminders aren't intrusive. Best app I've ever used for anything. Thanks developers.
Healint May 16, 2017
Thank you very much for your kind words. Your support goes a long way encouraging the team to work hard on the app and keep improving it for loyal users like you. Jenny Ever since I started getting migraines, in college, I've been under the impression that lack of sleep was one of my triggers. For nearly 30 years I have built my life around this assumption (avoiding going out in the evening, leaving parties early, using sleeping medication to make myself fall asleep). After only a few migraine spots I can now see that the extra sleep is actually the trigger. What a life changer this is! I highly recommend Migraine Buddy.
Healint May 12, 2017
Thank you so much for your kind review. Glad to see the app is helping you managing your migraines. Your support really goes a long way in encouraging our team to keep working on the app for users like yourself :) – Jenny I have had migraine my entire life. This is a great app. I highly recommend it for anyone who has migraines as it can help you know what your triggers are. What medications work and don't plus this will help your Doctor.
Healint May 17, 2017
Thank you for your kind words Catherine. Your support is highly appreciated! Jenny Amazing app! Migraine Buddy helps me track my sleep, eating and exercise habits along with identifying triggers and effectiveness of meds to share with my neurologist. I am more proactive with my Abortive meds so my migraines do not reach the pain intensity warranting a trip to the ER. Thank you for an easy and free Migraine tracker!
Healint May 14, 2017
Thank you so much for your support Lori. Glad to see the app is helping you keep your migraine at manageable stage. Jenny Love this app. I am a nurse working for two headache specialists, and it is so great to be able to point our patients to this app to help track their chronic and migrainous headaches. Some people are more likely to use an app versus paper tracking, so thank you.
Healint May 21, 2017
Thanks for your continuous support Carol. I would love to discuss further with you about your patients needs and how the app can improve to help them even further. Please contact me at jenny@healint.com mentionning this message for reference. Jenny :-) It's extremely helpful to me, in tracking my migraines, triggers, sleep patterns, weather conditions, medication reminders, etc. 👍☺ I will definitely keep on using this great app! 😎 Thank you, Migraine Buddy! 💐
Healint May 23, 2017
Thanks to you for your kind words. Glad to hear the app is helping you managing your migraines. Jenny This is an amazing tool that I wish I'd had years ago. It could have made identifying triggers so easy. I would like to see a way to include both starting pain level and pain levels for the duration of the attack.
Healint May 18, 2017
Thank you for your kind words Caitlin. The level of pain is not yet available but you can use the note section of the migraine record to record the pain level, this is even more accurate with the timestamp option in the top right corner of the same section... Hope this will help. Jenny Great app. Easy to use and very functional. Been suffering from migraines and random headaches for almost 30yrs...app helping to confirm certain info to my doc and physio. Thanks.
Healint May 25, 2017
Thank you Cat. Glad to hear that the app has helped you find your triggers. Jenny Great app, simple, includes all the right info to collect in a coherent order. Helps me keep track of frequency of medications to avoid rebound headaches.. thanks a heap!
Healint May 14, 2017
Thank you for your support Miriam. Jenny I love this app, but the last few times I've needed it it won't open. Like currently I'm needing to track and I can't open the app. I keep getting an error pop up
Healint May 14, 2017
Dear Kiley, sorry to hear that. Please contact me immediately at Jenny@healint.com so that I can help you on this. Thanks. Jenny This app has been amazingly helpful in the last few months for me. It has successfully tracked my symptoms & pain. So much so, that my neurologist decided we should take another look at my facial AVM and ordered additional testing. It has helped me notice triggers that I have overlooked in the past. The pressure forecast alone helps me plan my day. This by far is the best tracker app. Migraine Buddy, you may have just saved my life by helping us catch an early warning.
Healint May 11, 2017
Wow DJ, thank you so much for your support. I am so happy to see how helpful the app is for you.Your support really goes a long way in encouraging our team to keep working on the app for users like you :) Please feel free to contact me at jenny@healint.com to share suggestions on how we could help you further in your fight against migraines :)Jenny UPDATE 2017. App is amazing! Reports help me so much at doc visits. I rely on sleep tracking every day as this is root issue for me with diagnosed REM & low delta wave sleep disorders. I just discovered the barometric pressure tracker - love! And began reviewing the buddy groups for advice. So many features - truly has been one of best supports I've had for a 30yr illness/issue. Love the communication from App creators and updates. If you are a migraneur or have migraines or chronic headaches - you really need this. Still having issues with sleep tracker - some nights won't track - I reset, turn on/off. Not able to record quality. But like daily tracker feature & reminder to record. Thank you! App has helped. Would like addition of notes tab to sleep monitor to track quality of sleep not only duration.
Healint May 29, 2017
Thank you so much for your continuous support Trish. It's highly appreciated by the team. Jenny :-)
[Edit] Dear Trish, do you know that in the sleep record screen you have a space for notes? Just click on Edit on the reminder, and you will be able to access it. This app would be perfect if I could track pain intensity levels over the course of the migraine (and not give just one overall pain intensity rating to cover the entire migraine). A timeline/graph on the migraine summary page mapping the highs/lows of pain intensity throughout the migraine would be so helpful!
Healint May 20, 2017
Dear Alisha, Thank you for your continuous support. We are still working on finding the right tool to record pain intisity. However you now have a time stamp button in the note section of the migraine record that can help you record detailed pain intensity throughout the migraine. Hope this will help. Jenny :=) Makes it really easy to record migraines without having to put too much thought into the fact that you have another a headache. Also let's use skip all the details and you can fill them in later when you're feeling good
Healint May 11, 2017
Thank you Kelly. You support is highly appreciated. Jenny Once you figure out the interface, it's very thorough at tracking your symptoms and potential causes. It also remind you once a day to track your day's activities.
Healint May 21, 2017
Thank you for your support Mark! Jenny I've only used it once and it's already amazing! It asks such detailed and relevant questions and is nicely designed. I wish I could find a similar tracking app for my menstruation/symptoms!
Healint May 12, 2017
Thank you for your kind words Meike. Jenny No joke this app is the one to use for migraine tracking. It has everything you need and more. The notifications about sleep actually help you record at first. As someone who has a migraine just about every day do this is helpful.
Healint May 21, 2017
Thank you for your kind words Mark. Your support is highly appreciated by the team! Jenny was surprised to find how in-depth the app is! I'm loving how you can track your day and your triggers, I just wish you'll expand upon that in the future to contain good things about your day that might prevent migraines, ie worked out, did yoga, ate 3 meals...
Healint May 14, 2017
Thank you for your suggestion Mandy. In fact you can add any button you want in the daily tracker page, they can be good things too. I encourage you to try this. Jenny :-) With everything going on in my life, this application is a critical part of my life. I'm able to show and track my migraines very closely with my neurologist. Migraine Buddy, is heaven sent.....
Healint May 22, 2017
Thank you for your continuous support Alejandro. So glad to hear that the app keeps helping you. Jenny This has been a very helpful app in charting my migraines, and reminding me to take my medicine, and even helping me chart my sleep patterns. I am looking forward to going to the neurologist next month and sharing this with her and having a record in my hand that I won't have just left at home like I usually do!
Healint May 20, 2017
Thank you for your kind words Nicole. Your support is highly appreciated. Jenny I have been a user since 1/2015, won't try another app! Love it and want to tell everyone behind the scenes thanks for all your hard work!!!
Healint May 14, 2017
Thank you so much for your kind words. Your support is highly appreciated. it really goes a long way in encouraging our team to keep working on the app for loyal users like yourself :) – Jenny This is so much more convenient than a physical journal that might get lost or be at home when I need it, and so much easier than struggling with a Google document and a migraine at the same time. I do wish it had a segment for postdrome symptoms; I suspect that in my case different postdrome symptoms may be resulting from different migraine triggers. That said, this is gar and away better than any other migraine tracking method I have tried.
Healint May 20, 2017
Thank you for your support Amy. Have you tried to create an attack type with your postdrome? You could describe them and get them recorded this way. Feel free to contact me at jenny@healint.com for more suggestions or advise. I'll be happy to assist you and hopefully grab the missing star back :-) Jenny Detailed. Humorous emojis. Thoughtful App. A buddy through this Menopause Migraines trying times. Thank you, Developers and Content Writers.
Healint May 21, 2017
