User Reviews for Migraine Buddy: Track Headache

Amazing once again

They seem to have resolved my one and only issue I had with the app! Up until recently, this app was great. It has many great features for tracking migraines and makes it easy to do so and see how many you’ve had in a month, and allows you to track many specific details about your migraines. However, recently, after I’m logging a migraine that is still in progress, EVERY TIME, I get a pop window for “Migraine Reminders.” This window says that in order to help prevent you from forgetting to close your entry, the app can send you reminders. It says you can turn them off at anytime. The only option to select is “Understood.” After selecting this, EVERY TIME it takes me to my notification settings for the app on my phone. If I wanted to set reminders, I would have done so the first 40+ times I’ve gotten this message. It’s terribly annoying that the only thing you can do from here is allow the app to open up your phone settings. Let’s say you fail to tap “understood” and just close the app instead. When you open the app again, the window will still be there waiting for you to tap on “understood.” I don’t want reminders!!

Awesome App

I have had migraines all my life. As many who have migraines know, they have the power to devastatingly impact your life, and no one truly understands accept your doctor and other people who have migraines. I’m in my late 40s and still get people rolling their eyes when i say i have a headache (even my loving husband of 19 years, lol!).My doctor recommended this app and i love it. I had intermittently used it over the past 2 or 3 years, but since i’ve been home from work during the covid pandemic for over a month, i’ve been using it consistently. Ironically, i’ve had more headaches this month than i’ve had in a while...i guess all the stress from everything going on.But anyway, i love the sleep reports, the detailed features of recording an attack, the home page which says how many days i’ve been attack free, on the day of an attack how it says later it hopes you’re feeling better, all the invaluable tips, the migraine incident reports, the supportive migraine community, the different ways it seeks to help us see how so many things we don’t think of can cause headaches, and so much more. This has been a comforting tool to help me manage and understand my headaches.

Not for occasional migraine sufferers.

I’ve had this app for a while now. The problem I’ve had with it from the beginning is the thing that finally pushed me over the edge last night. There should be a way to override or bypass entering the end time of the last migraine event upon starting a new one. Or have a simple checkbox selection of “1-2 hours”, “2-4 hours”, etc. I don’t always remember to go back and set an exact end time. I’m usually too happy that it’s over to remember to go back and self-report. So then when a new one starts, I have to fumble around my calendars (and my already impaired brain) to try and input an end time just so that I can start recording a new one. Most of the time I just fudge the times with a made up length.Last night my migraine came out of nowhere and I had no time to mess around. So of course this was when I discovered all the updates done to the app. Panicking, I just started jabbing at the screen. It was covered with text and buttons of different colors and fonts - all screaming for my attention. I had no idea how to end the last event or start a new one. I was befuddled in migraine haze and pain and half-thought... and utter confusion.I get a migraine only about 1-3 times a month. Sometimes I go two months without any. Maybe this app isn’t for people who use the app as infrequently as that. For regular users, I’d give this app 4 stars. For people like me, I give it 1-2.

A must have for chronic sufferers

I was diagnosed in 2014 with cluster headaches and placed on Topiramate as a preventative. Most recently, a reevaluation by a new HCP has determined that it is indeed migraines. I am still using Topiramate as a preventative but also Sumatriptan for pain as soon as I feel them coming on. This app is super valuable in monitoring the frequency, triggers, and what is and isn’t helping. I love that I can easily extract all this data for my HCP so they can better understand my needs to address my concerns. I also use WeatherX app which is also for migraine sufferers who experience migraines related to Barometric changes. I call myself a “walking weather station” because even the slightest change can set me off on a downward spiral. Knowledge is key folks! We need to understand in order to treat & dose accurately. So, for those who suffer with migraines and cluster headaches, you would truly benefit from this app to better learn about your own health and how to manage it. In addition, you are helping the medical community because migraines are still not understood completely and therefore more studies are needed and wanted. Thanks so much for creating this app! It is life changing for me!

Fantastic app with a nice and simple UI

As someone who has suffered from migraines for my entire life I was always trying to find an effective way to track them and record details. However, I kept having trouble remembering and keeping everything organized. I love this app because it’s so easy to enter the info, but it also has a good amount of detail. It compiles the data and presents it to you in an interesting way that can help you get a new perspective on symptoms, triggers, and your body’s patterns. I especially like the sleep tracking part (it’s linked to my FitBit, but it can also link to an Apple Watch), as that is one of my main triggers, and having definitive information about my sleep schedule can really help me predict and prevent migraines. The resources are helpful and the chat forum is a wonderful place to discuss your experiences with other migraine sufferers, as well as to get advice or tips on how to manage your migraines. My main issues with the app are mostly that there are occasionally typos, which can sometimes make it feel slightly less professional, and that the layout could probably be improved a little (it’s quite bland and sometimes things kinda blur together). If I were to suggest anything I would suggest the ability to make a more in-depth profile and the option to do private messaging. I believe it would be quite helpful to be able to have one-on-one conversations with people you might have met through the forum.

Wonderful app that is always being made better!!

Love this free app!! Easy to navigate and record migraines. I have been using this app since April of 2017 and it has done wonders for me! It allows my doctors to see what I actually go thru, frequency, what meds work and dosages and duration of migraine. Lots of data can be entered which means lots of different results to be seen. They offer different ways to view the data to see if there is a pattern. My pain specialist was very intrigued by the printed report. Love that we can start an attack and then just leave it and go back to enter in the meds and steps used to try to stop the migraine. Can be personalized very easily so the reports show accurately what you go thru. The biggest benefit is that all of this is FREE! In a world where migraines are not understood, this app being free helps me to show all my doctors that I am serious in working for a treatment plan that works for me, plus there is no more guessing as to what meds to take and you can track when you took them last so you can make sure you are taking meds as prescribed by your doctor. It is a wonderful app and so happy they created it. One more tool to help us migraine warriors in the battle against this horrible disease!

Helpful to understand

Not sure if it helps to prevent migraines, but helps to understand migraines and helps to understand what treatments work best for me. Also starting on a preventative and the report which can be downloaded as pdf and printed or emailed directly to your doctor can help you and your doctor decide if the preventive medication is working or not. I feel more in control of my migraines than I ever have before even though they are far more frequent than they have ever been. This app is helping me to learn and get ahead of them. I’m still using the free version and will consider the paid version again. The only thing I don’t like is when you fist sign up, you are given choice of one year or one month paid. If you hit cancel, you can use the free version. You do not get access to all the features. I’m going to review the paid version again, but I definitely wanted to try it for free first before I paid anything. One week would not have been long enough for me. In fact I’ve been using it 2 weeks. I think 2 weeks is a reasonable trial period.

Beat Migraine APP Out There!

This APP has truly been a huge blessing for me. It is so much easier now to track migraines, triggers, and remedies as well as print reports for my doctors. I’ve been using the free version of the APP for about 4 years now and have nothing but positive things to say about it. I also believe that Jenny and the people behind the APP truly care about migraine sufferers. They even met with me and some other migraines in Dublin, Ireland a few years ago to discuss the APP, what improvements could be made and to get our input. They were very professional, yet seemed genuinely concerned. I could hardly believe that they would take the time to meet with APP users and not only that, some of them had even traveled from other countries for a business conference yet they took the time out to meet with us. I can’t say thank you enough to Jenny and the team for this amazing tool. I wish I could afford the paid version but it’s not affordable for me due to low income because of my husband’s cancer and the fact that I’m his caregiver. But the free APP has still been a lifesaver and I highly recommend it to every migraine sufferer!

Exceptional features and connect-to-provider lists

This is the first app review I have ever slowed down to contribute. Working in healthcare it takes a lot for a health-related app to impress me and I have been extremely impressed by Migraine Buddy. I like that I can add in my sleep time rather than rely on the overnight feature, which may be great I just have not tried it yet. I downloaded this app while visiting a family member who has pets and triggered ongoing migraines for me. I love that I could use the connect-to-a provider feature to locate acupuncturists nearby. There is a lot of flexibility within this app that makes it very easy to use on the go, during an attack, and to catch up with after an attack. I really like that I can add notes to the day because I personally like to include what I’m eating especially if it’s something unusual or new to me so that I can see if it makes a difference in the coming days. At this time, if I made a suggestion it would be to offer a food journal as a complement to the app that can be used along side it for tracking and reporting. I really look forward to seeing how the predictability alerts will help me gauge and treat my migraines. Life should only get better using Migraine Buddy!

Great app! An essential for migraine sufferers

This app is awesome and has a super easy and intuitive UI. Anyone suffering from migraines, especially if you’re in the beginning of this never ending journey of migraine relief, you need to get this app. In the past it’s been difficult to describe and track the attacks and all the circumstances around it. Doctors would say “well maybe it’s the weather, stress, or your diet...” the list goes on. I’ve been able to track when they occur, how long, what is happening physically, externally, meds that I took, dosages, etc. Thank you to the developers and the whole Migraine Buddy team for creating such a powerful and easy to use app! The premium subscription is totally worth it! Happily support the Dev team behind the app. One suggestion? for folks suffering from migraines but may not have the finances for the premium subsection; it may be helpful to add a “donate” or “pay it forward” feature for other premium subscribers to feed into a pool of funds for folks who may not be able to afford to get the premium subscription. As we know - migraines are debilitating and will a greater impact those who are financially insecure.
