Questions

Is Headache Pal free?

Yes. Logging, the calendar, the daily check-in, widgets, reminders, attack mode, the breathing exercise and 30-day insights are free. Pro adds the doctor report, unlimited chat with Kip, long-term trends and exports. Pro has a free trial for new subscribers.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up and no login. Your headache logs are saved on your iPhone, not on our servers.

Is my health data private?

Your logs stay on your device. We have no ads and no tracking. Kip's AI chat sends your messages and a short summary of recent logs to generate a reply, only after you agree, and you can turn it off in Settings.

Can Headache Pal tell me if I have migraines?

No. Headache Pal is a diary, not a medical device. It helps you notice patterns and gives your doctor clear notes, but only a doctor can diagnose a headache disorder.

Does it work with Apple Health?

Yes, if you turn it on. Headache Pal can save your headaches to Apple Health and read your sleep to show how sleep and headaches line up. Sleep is analyzed on your iPhone only.

Is it on Android or iPad?

Headache Pal is an iPhone app for iOS 17.6 or later. There is no Android version right now.
