Clinical review

Reviewer: Sarah Wang, Pharmacist
Date of review: June 2025
Platform: Apple and Android
Version: 5.0
Comments: Migraine Insight is a well-designed migraine and headache tracking app that combines manual and automated data collection with AI-driven insights to help users identify personal triggers and improve migraine management. It offers flexible tracking, a user-friendly interface, and the ability to generate clear reports for healthcare providers. The inclusion of automated data such as weather, sleep, and location adds valuable context to migraine patterns. Like most health apps, it should be used as a complementary tool and not a substitute for medical advice or care.
Safety concerns: The app functions as a tracking tool and is not a substitute for professional medical advice or treatment. Users should avoid relying solely on the app’s migraine predictions.
