Logs your migraines and turns them into a report your neurologist can actually use.

Is it worth it?
You've had four migraines this month and your neurologist appointment is in three weeks. They'll ask how often, how long, what set them off, whether the medication helped. You'll say something vague, because the honest answer is you were lying in a dark room, not taking notes. That gap is what MigraClarity is built for. It's a subscription migraine diary with a specific angle: logging is meant to take under 30 seconds, and it pulls barometric pressure in automatically so you aren't typing weather data. It runs in two modes. If you track a cycle, attacks get mapped against hormonal phase without extra logging. If you don't, it leans on sleep debt, exertion and stress instead. After each attack it asks whether your medication worked and how quickly, so over months you build a picture of which drug, dose and timing suits you. The payoff is a one-tap PDF in the ICHD-3 headache diary format, which is what neurologists are used to reading. Worth being clear about what it isn't. The app itself says up front that it's not a medical device and doesn't diagnose or treat anything. It finds patterns in data you provide, so if you log sporadically it has nothing to work with. And gender-aware really means two sets of fields rather than anything deeper. Still, a diary you actually keep is genuinely useful when you're sitting in front of a specialist.
Pros
- Logging is quick enough to do mid-attack
- Weather and pressure data captured without you doing anything
- Follow-up prompts build a real record of what medication did
- Report is in a format doctors already recognise
Cons
- Only as good as how consistently you log, which takes months to pay off
- It's a tracker, not treatment, and it says so itself
- The page never states the price, billing cycle or refund terms for a recurring subscription
- Doesn't say whether it's a phone app, a web app, or both, or whether you can export your data if you cancel
What you get
A subscription migraine diary you log attacks into in under 30 seconds, with barometric pressure pulled in automatically. Two modes: cycle phase mapping if you track a cycle, sleep, exertion and stress if you don't. Post-attack follow-ups on whether your medication worked and how fast. One-tap PDF report in ICHD-3 diary format, plus seven free downloadable tools with no account needed.
Before you buy
- Try the free tier first and see if you actually log three or four attacks before paying anything
- Grab the seven free downloads, which need no account, to see if paper would do the job for you
- Find the price and cancellation terms at checkout before committing, since it bills on repeat
- Ask your neurologist whether they want a diary at all, and in what format, before you pay for one
Who it suits
Anyone with frequent migraines who has a specialist appointment coming up and keeps failing to remember the details, especially if cycle timing might be a factor
