What it does
What is Migraine Logger?
Migraine Logger is a free migraine tracking app for iPhone that focuses on fast logging, trend visibility, and practical sharing tools without bloated health-platform complexity.
Daily check-in
Optional 7 PM reminder asks if a migraine happened today and can route straight back into logging.
History that makes sense
See a month-by-month calendar heatmap, recent entries, and severity counts without digging through menus.
Export when needed
Generate PDF or CSV exports for doctors, parents, or school records when you need something shareable.
Encrypted backups
Optional iCloud backup keeps data protected with encrypted storage and no account system inside the app.
Personal but not childish
Rounded typography, flexible accent colors, and optional wallpaper make the app feel personal without feeling juvenile.
Why parents trust it

FAQ
Frequently asked questions about Migraine Logger.
Does Migraine Logger collect personal data?
No. The free app does not require an account and does not include ads, analytics, or in-app social features.
Is this only for kids?
It was designed for kids and teens, but adults can use the free app too if they want a simpler migraine log.
Can I back up entries?
Yes. iCloud backup is optional and encrypted. The app also offers export tools when users want a shareable file.
Do reminders happen automatically?
Only if the user turns on Daily Check-In in Settings and allows notifications. The default experience has no reminders.
Can I share data with a doctor?
Yes. Export lets users create PDF or CSV files that can be shared outside the app when needed. Exports require a one-time in-app purchase of $4.99, which helps fund development.
What devices are supported?
The app is for iPhone and requires iOS 17 or later.
Product tips
Tips for getting better migraine tracking data.
Log close to the event
Try to log the migraine the same day. Time and context are easier to remember while they are still fresh.
Use notes for triggers
Write down details like sleep, meals, hydration, stress, school, sports, weather, or screen time.
Turn on reminders only if they help
The 7 PM check-in is useful for some families, but the app works well without it if reminders feel stressful.
Review the calendar monthly
Patterns are easier to notice over a few weeks than after single entries. The month view is a good default rhythm.
Export before appointments
Create a PDF before seeing a doctor so dates, severity, and notes are ready without opening the app mid-visit.
Keep it short
You do not need perfect notes for every entry. A fast, consistent log is more useful than a detailed log you stop using.
