HeadApp Migraine Diary 12+

Wow, what a great resource for compiling headache data. Thank you for making this available for free. Both my husband and I were really impressed by the export feature. One request: I wish that I could “dot” my calendar with which medications I used so that I can know by quickly glancing at how many times in a week I’ve taken Reglan, and how many times in a month I’ve taken Maxalt. As of Dec 2021 I can only see which meds I’ve taken through the month by exporting data or manually going into each headache and counting every med. I would love to see that feature added, it’d make the app absolutely perfect imo.

In the monthly evolution charts, The number of ‘Headache Days’ and ‘Only Aura Days’ are represented by two different colors in the same bar of a bar graph but there is not enough info to figure out the actual numbers of ‘headache days’ and ‘only aura days’ individually, only the combined number of both. The same exact thing goes for ‘Headache attacks’ and ‘Only Aura’ represented by two different colors in the single bar on the graph without any indication of what the individual numbers are. There also isn’t a clear definition for the difference between ‘headache attacks’ and ‘headache days.’
It DOES offer the most detailed symptom and trigger and pain level options and includes more aura options than other apps I have used. There are so many screens with questions on them that do not apply to me, that I wish that I could further personalize the questions to entirely remove parts of it (like the entire menstural cycle page and the medication assumptions as neither apply to me as i take prophylactic meds as opposed to abortive meds) and I always record at the beginning of a migraine or aura so it is really difficult to get past all these screens and questions that are entirely irrelevant when I am in the middle of an aura or migraine during which I am least likely to be completely cognizant or even be able to see due to visual aura.

I’m new to this app but so far I really like it. Simple to use and simple features. One feature is the ability to track changes throughout the headache, without having to change the initial symptoms, severity, etc. I would like to see a feature added that could help distinguish what type of headache it is. I have multiples types of headaches and sometimes it’s hard to distinguish what type it is.
Overall I do like it better than others I’ve used (and that list is long).
