What's New in Version 34.1.2

The Dancing Pear Update
We are implementing a fresh new design to make the app more smooth and pleasant to use!
- The onboarding is now DARK
- You’ll be able to select your TOP 2 OBJECTIVES, which will allow us to soon ADJUST and SIMPLIFY Migraine Buddy for your specific needs. (We heard you when you said it was sometimes becoming too complex, with too many options)
You should soon start to see improvements in the rest of the app!
And… some BUG FIXES
- We’ve also fixed some bugs related to the PRESSURE VARIATION feature that was blocked for some of you.
- We have improved the algorithm that was a bit too conservative. We worked with our data to make the Green-Yellow-Red alert be more representative of your sensitivity.
We’ll continue adjusting it and we are working on bringing more WEATHER tracking features aside from pressure variation!
If you are experiencing any issues, please do not hesitate to contact me at jenny@healint.com
Wishing you a migraine-free day ahead!
Jenny and the Migraine Buddy Team.

Too much has changed

I used to use this app a lot more, but it’s way too crowded with features now. Too many articles, insights and things that aren’t actually helpful. I’m trying to avoid headaches, not create them. Many features also now require a subscription. The only thing I’ve been finding helpful more recently has been the barometric pressure predictions, but I might just find that elsewhere.

Nice app but...

I think it’s kind of sexist that every trigger tracker is free except for the hormone and menstrual cycle tracker.

Extremely helpful

This app is wonderful. It’s user friendly, and I love that I can edit the reporting options by adding specific types of pain I’ve experienced, medications I’ve taken, and the weather autopopulates for each entry.
Migraine Buddy is also super helpful when I visit my neurologist. I don’t have to remember how many migraines I’ve had, or how much or what type of medications I’ve taken. Everything is right there in the reports!
Loving this app in Alberta, Canada 💕

One word: BLOATED

This app USED to be quite wonderful. In recent years however it’s become almost unusable with the bloated features that, for the most part, are quite useless.
I would recommend you go back to doing one thing: migraine tracking. That’s it. Get rid of the rest of the crap. This app is being deleted in favour of something that I can actually use.
Developers’ reception to feedback has been typically defensive and not well-received IMO.

Such a help!

Migraine buddy has been such a lifesaver for me. Not only has it help me to keep track of my migraines and been able to send reports to my doctors, it’s also help me to discover that my triggers and symptoms are common and I’m not the only one suffering from these things. It’s also help me to Connect some dots that I have never seen before and discover new triggers and symptoms. Thank you for all the great research and wonderful features!

Notifications are problematic

So many notifications the last few versions. I get an icon in a folder saying I have 14 notifications, and they’re all in Migraine Buddy, and, sure enough, I’ve already seen everything the app is notifying me about.

Who knows if it’s any good $$$

Far too expensive. $69.99 per year? Why?
All I want is to record symptoms. The rest is easy to find elsewhere.
Hard pass. Delete.
Update: I am sorry, but your canned response is inadequate. Your app is useless without the ability to turn off the premium nags. You have ruined what could have been a very helpful medical app.

so disappointed

I must write to express how disappointed I am that you’ve now included ’for pay’ options. Too many apps do this. It’s so frustrating and almost insulting after YEARS of free service. Making the initial app $5 or $10 is way better than these exorbitant annual usage fees. It’s BECAUSE of that I am giving you a “bad” review. The app itself is ESSENTIAL for me and my doctor. SHAME ON YOU.

Easy to use

I absolutely love how easy this app is to use. I’ve tried several different ones, and as a migraine sufferer with daily headaches, the last thing you feel like doing is logging symptoms with a complicated app. This one is easy to use and quick to log info into, so I don’t miss entering my headaches as often.

Becoming Too Bloated

This app was great until they added the premium features, now for someone suffering from a migraine, there’s too much gunk in the app. It has become so incredibly bloated, does everything but make coffee and toast. And all the red badges when the app opens, please put an option in to turn them off, honestly this is all enough to give you a migraine if you don’t already have one.

Make 7-Day Pressure Forecast FREE AGAIN!

Since the latest updated you are now charging approx $70+taxes/year for this. This is not fair! People like me whose main trigger is barometric pressure are now being forced to leave an app which I have been using regularly since the last 6 years. This shows that you only care about making a profit now!

Nice app to record migraine

I’ve been using Migraine Buddy for a very long time, I think around the time it first came out? And I never used another app for migraines ever since. I really like how you can record almost everything about your migraine attack easily and that it’s condensed afterward in easy to understand graphs. It has a nice-looking design with lots of infos.
I gave it four stars because with every updates, I feel like they’re trying to make it more and more like a social media app and I don’t care about that all. I wouldn’t mind if it was just one tab that you could ignore, but now you have a chat, a discovery tab, notifications and all that and it feels really unnecessary. I don’t know if some people do use these features so I wouldn’t want them removed in case somebody does like them, but I wish you could turn them off. I have never used them once and everytime I see them becoming more relevant to the user experience, I feel like I’ll have to look for another app soon...

Not Bad.

This was really helpful while I was applying for disability. Just downloaded the file and sent it off. I also was able to eliminate another app because I can track my sleep as well. Which is convenient.
My only criticism would be the insights section has been spamming me notifications. Using IPhone means there’s always a red dot and it makes me wonder if I forgot to stop my tracking. If there was a way to turn those notifications off but keep the other I would have rated it higher.

Not just for migraines

I don’t know whether I have migraines or other kinds of headaches but it doesn’t matter with this app because it lets me find out what potential triggers to avoid and lets me track whether I’m replying on medication too much ... and other critical information. If I am too incapacitated to record factors in real time, the ability to edit after the fact (and the reminder prompt about whether the headache has ended) allows me to get granular when I’m feeling up to it. Thank you for creating this app!

Miss the simple version of this app

I’ve been using this app for a while. It started simple. Since all the extras got added, it is less intuitive and takes longer to record an episode. It’s even confusing finding how to get to an onscreen chart or report for my doctor. Despite years of my data in this app, I’m looking for another one that is simple to use. Especially when my head already hurts.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

I downloaded this app on a recommendation from a friend and I am so glad that I did. Even with only the first few days of using it, I have already recorded two major migraines. This is exactly what my neurologist was looking for as a diary of my migraines. I can’t wait to continue to use this as I head into using a new medication.

Great app

Even so early in my usage I am seeing a pattern I wasn’t aware of. Triggers and early warnings are so helpful to help mitigate severity and duration of the attacks. I would love to be able to track the pain pattern on the head map, as some of my headaches are days in duration and have a tendency to migrate. Other than that, it’s amazing and the encouragement messages are really appreciated. 💛

Patterns emerge

Thank you very much for this app. Patterns have emerged from the data so that I can modify my lifestyle and reduce the impact of migraines in my life. I now appreciate the importance of regular sleep hours, exercise, eating regularly, and being properly hydrated every day. Now if you could just control the air pressure fluctuations...(grin!)

Thank you for this!

I’ve suffered from migraines pretty much all my life. I’ve always wanted to keep track to see what triggered them and this is the best way to do that. I’ve been using it for a few months now and I can see a trend. It’s helping me know what triggers my migraines and what can I do to prevent them.

THANK YOU!!!!

What an incredible resource. I live in Calgary and suffer more frequently when we have Chinooks and this helped me confirm my hunch that increases in pressure more than decreases
It also taught me that sinus pressure is a warning sign for me that I had no idea about! Now if my sinuses are getting stuffy even without migraine symptoms I do a saline nasal rinse and take my steroidal nasa spray to help reduce the severity of some and possibly stop others (can’t ever be entirely sure you didn’t get one 😉)
Yes, it does take time to develop your data to generate reports but sooooo worth it
Thank you so much to the developers and people who help keep this app running ❤️

Migraine tracker

This app has made my life and my appointments with my nurokogist so much easier. Instead of being in tears in my Dr’s office trying to report on how many migraine headaches I had had etc, I was able to give precise information. From Tracking them, the meds I used identifying triggers and getting support and med suggestions have been a life saver ! Thanks so much!!

Really great recent enhancements!

I’ve been using this app for years and it started off as useful tool to track my migraines. I love the enhancements they have introduced that make it even more powerful! The migraine impact report is very enlightening. I also love being able to search and add symptoms and see how many others report the same symptoms. One thing I would love is if the sleep reports could integrate with my fitbit data. Irregular sleep is a common trigger for me so this would be super useful. (I’m not disciplined enough to to manually enter my sleep data and I don’t think motion data from my phone would be very accurate.)

I’ve been struggling with headaches for many years and currently going to various drs who ask many questions that memory does not usually serve correct.

Life saver

I work in the app industry and I know how hard it is to develop a product that covers all users’ needs and this app has been doing this magically! It’s definitely a life saver! I have been having migraines for more than 1 year and really needed to gather more data to help my doctors understand what’s the real cause. I love EVERYTHING in the app. It’s super user friendly, the insights are amazing, the design is lovely, the user experience is delightful. (no, I don’t work for them. Yes, I’m a real user!) download it ASAP if you have constant migraines. It’s super helpful!

A wonderful tool

This app is fantastic!! For years I’ve been telling my doctor that I have headaches all the time, not just my regular migraines...and finally with this app I’ve been able to show him actual proof!! It records headaches of all kinds, not just migraines, and with the data we can now track triggers and see what gives relief and treatments that work and don’t work. It’s fantastic!! I tell everyone I can about it!! I’ve had this for almost two years, and it keeps getting better and better. Now...if it’d only get rid of the migraines....🤦🏻‍♀️
