Headache Diary Lite for Android
What do you mean, no more entries possible???! If you don't have many headaches, this is probably a good app for you. I've had 10 headaches over the past 2 months, and Headache Diary Lite cut me off. I didn't like the app enough to pay to be able to log more headaches, so I'll probably just go back to the old writing them down method.
Maybe they limited the features so VERY much to get you to upgrade to pro. They took it too far. Instead, it made me feel like the app isn't up to my needs and there's no way I'd pay for this.
Good free ap.. just started using. Much better than a paper calander.. would love .csv exports! Might need pro for that? Seems like solid coding, haven't crashed or seen bugs.
Start page would be more intuitive if each head with a number is a different color or icon and bigger font. Two square icons at bottom need words or list a menu. Can you add a way to merge data from Period Tracker so as to look at how headaches correspond with cycle?
I've just switched to android from apple. I used the iHeadache app and it was awesome...this isn't quite as customizable but is still pretty good. It does nearly all I need it to do. It's the best I've found so far on the android market
Wish you could pick more than one type of headache for when you aren't sure our when you have multiple which I often do. Wish there were some more options of questions to answer, but it's nice. Wish you could delete single entries. I made one just to see how it worked and had to deleted and rest the whole app just to get it off. God forbid I mistakenly wrote one in
Wouldn't want to buy pro. Interface is boring. To keep track of something as a routine the app should give incentive by providing visually appealing interface and charts. More options for personalizing would make it fun
I first start it using this app back in 2012. I had an iPhone and when I switched to an Android phone I was pleasantly surprised that this app was armed Android as well. This app helps me keep a record of my headaches. I'm curious to see what the Pro Edition is but I will not be purchasing it.
Helps you stay objective and cut out the emotional over reactions that happen when it comes to describing headaches. Really helped me notice that headaches were not in fact decreasing even though I had guessed they had been. They had however, been decreasing in intensity, which I realized using this app.
Because this is the free version...I ran out if entries. Therefore I lose all my previous ones when I move to a new TOTALLY FREE app. Such bullshit
I pay enough money toward medication for my migraines, I don't want to have to pay for an app just to keep track of it.. That causes more stress which leads to more migraines
I get migraines and I need to start tracking them. This is the first app I've liked. Its easy to use. Basic, but has all needed choices available. I will probably upgrade to paid version.
Unable to edit medication. Triggers are not always known, this is one of the purposes off using such an app to help with the identification of triggers. Need to track triggers on pain free days as well. Would be good to track time, weekday, month, weather and geographical location. Useless if long term tracking is not available.
I don't know why I get the headaches I do. I certainly know they aren't from alcohol, which is what this app picks for me first with my entries. I downloaded this app to try to figure triggers out. Guess I'll go back to sticky note app.
Unfortunately you can only save 10 entries with the "lite" version. I have over 20 migraine days a month. Doesnt work for me!
Of course to get the other features you must pay, but for now it helps. I am able to track my headaches multiple times a day. I can add other info if I type it. For now, the app is perfect for my current needs.
I was under the impression this app would be great to use to help me with doctor appointments, regarding my migraines. Was even more excited to learn it was (suposta! ) be free! ... It's not. . Over all the app is nice, helps making tracking information easier.. Just have NO INTENT of paying for it, an will continue to search for a truly FREE app, an when I find it, this app is gone!
I need an app that allows me to customize the information that I have to input. This one you have to give a time and duration. Pointless for chronic migraine.
I had been keeping an old paper chart to track my migraines for the last 30+ years. In the last two months the darn things had increased in frequency and severity, or so I thought but I am terrible at writing info down in the moment. I am a much faster data entry type person so this app had been handy. Will be interested in what Doc says when I see him in two weeks for a work up.
I'm trying to figure out what causes my headaches, so I ended up deleting this app because I couldn't answer some of the questions and there is no "unknown" option
This headache app is so useful for recording my headaches for day, time, severity, and relief. I'm impressed and will tell others about this application. Thank you.
I needed an application that can analyze the root cause, I don't know yet what triggers my migraines
Over all its a fairly decent app. I get headaches often and my doctor told me to start tracking them, and this app does a wonderful job. My only thing is I don't want to have to get the pro version to look at the other charts in what not. If they could fix it to were we don't have to get the pro, make us watch videos or something maybe? Then I would give 5 stars
No point of using it ...after few entries we can't add anymore ..we will have to purchase it . complete waste app
It allows succinct tracking of headaches, but you can't add treatment options other than OTC medication by default without the Pro version. It does allow for duration, pain level, and length of headache. Overall the free version is decent.
Really does just what you need in an easy to use interface. Very helpful in tracking the number and types of headaches you get and helps to identify their root cause.
The days of the week doesn't appear to change which can be frustrating. For example, I haven't had to use this for about a month but when I logged on it said I had 3 headaches this week. That's really my only complain thus far.
I have been looking for a headache diary that I can take with me on the go and this app appeared to do just the trick. The lite version does have a few key things missing (i.e. multiple key triggers ), but I was fine with that since it had a notes section at the bottom of every entry. I did not however, know that the lite version was only going to limit me to 10 entries. I have spent a lot of time logging the specifics to my migraines and do not look forward to having to re-entered them in a different app.
I mean, the free version cant let me add one medication to my list? I have to choose one then in the notes write that thats actually not what I took. Either way, this beats writing stuff down in random places trying to track things. Beggars can't be choosers. Also, it'd be nice if there was a section for tracking what I ate because that may help me figure out why Im getting headaches.

For the most part I like this app. I will probably end up upgrading to pro unless I find a better version of a free tracker. The UI can be clunky at times, but nothing you can't adapt to. I wish the free version wasn't SO limited (i get why it is, but I think I would have picked different features to lock) I should be able to track the details probably and I can't unless I pay.
I like the ability to track my headaches but I feel like you have to pit down a reason as to a trigger when most of the time I have no idea why they are triggered. I also wish the free version had a larger list of medications or a listed mix but they do not. I have only been using this app for a little bit and can't provide much more feeback
This is going to be handy as the docs always ask how many headaches in the past week, what time and what type. All good so far.
Last up to 72 hours... I had a 52 hour one last week - should use start and end date. There should be an unknown option for trigger.
Have had migraines for 30 years. App is basic and easy and handy to use. Nice to be able to choose location, duration and rate the pain.
Would lile to see option to add physical location (e.g. home / store) when headache occured to eliminate places that could be triggers.

For me, works really well, I get headaches easily and I can show this to my drs the next time I go.
I love this app. It's very helpful. When I go to the doctor for headaches I show him this.

Exactly what I was looking for. Kind of a boring looking setup, but its better than a bunch of flashy colors (the last thing I would want while typing in my migraine info). Only complaint is the "trigger" section. There needs to be an "unknown" option; I'm not always sure what trigged my headaches.
