Headache Guide
Symptoms, sleep and patterns
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
Gain a clearer understanding of your headaches and other recurring symptoms with Headache Guide. Record several moments throughout the day and discover patterns involving symptoms, medication, sleep, activities and environmental factors.
REGISTRATION PROFILES
Choose a profile for Migraine, Chronic Headache, Chronic Fatigue or Long COVID. For each profile, you decide which symptoms you want to track. Record symptoms with a severity from 0 to 10 or simply indicate that they were present.
QUICK AND DETAILED RECORDING
Record headaches, stabbing pains, fatigue, other symptoms, medication, activities and daily summaries. For headaches, you can record the pain score, side, location and type of pain. Choose which quick actions appear on the home screen and Apple Watch.
OVERVIEWS AND INSIGHTS
View your daily records in a clear calendar. Track the intensity or frequency of each symptom and see average, lowest and highest values. Charts and insights help you identify possible associations with time of day, sleep, activities, medication and daily impact.
ENVIRONMENT AND WEATHER
Record factors such as bright light and screen use. Optionally link current weather data using Apple Weather to explore possible associations with factors such as temperature and air pressure. Your location is not stored.
MEDICATION AND REMINDERS
Manage daily and other medication, set medication times and optionally receive a reminder for a follow-up measurement. Reminders can be configured separately for each day, for weekdays and weekends, or identically for every day.
APPLE HEALTH AND SLEEP
Import sleep data, available sleep metrics and workouts from Apple Health. If no sleep data is available, you can manually record bedtime, wake-up time, sleep duration, interruptions and sleep quality. Supported symptoms can also be shared with Apple Health.
APPLE WATCH
Record symptoms, headaches, medication and activities directly on your Apple Watch, even when your iPhone is not nearby. Widgets and the Watch complication provide quick access to the app.
REPORTS AND CONSULTATION MODE
View averages and trends over a custom period. Export your data as PDF or CSV and use Consultation Mode to present important information clearly during an appointment with a doctor or healthcare professional.
PRIVACY AND SECURITY
Your health data is processed locally on your own devices and within Apple Health. Protect the app using Face ID or a passcode, and create an encrypted backup that you can save in a location of your choice.
