Recommendations is a premium feature inside the Insights tab. It looks at the patterns already found in your data and surfaces a short list of things that line up with your migraines, grouped by category, each with a personal next step. Think of it as a polite friend who has read your diary and quietly points out what to watch.
These are suggestions, not orders. You are still in charge. Nothing in the app changes if you ignore them.
Where to find them
- Open MigraineMe.
- Tap the Insights tab.
- Scroll down until you see the Recommendations card (subtitle: "Built from your Insights patterns").
- If you are on the free plan, the card is locked behind a Premium gate.
- The card previews your two most recent recommendations, with "+X more" underneath. Tap the card to open the full list, where you can sort and filter by category.
How the recommendations are organised
Recommendations are grouped by the logging categories you already use:
- Triggers — things that tended to come before your migraines, and pairs that look risky together.
- Prodromes — early warning signs that showed up before your migraines.
- Medicines — what you took and how well it worked, including overuse flags worth discussing with your doctor.
- Reliefs — non-medication things that helped, with timing and technique ideas.
- Activities — what you were doing on migraine days.
You will only see categories where you have logged something. If you have not logged any reliefs, no Reliefs section appears. That is normal.
Reading a single item
Each item in a category is short.
- The name is the trigger, prodrome, medicine, relief or activity (for example, "Caffeine" or "Skipped breakfast").
- The text underneath is a short note explaining the pattern the app spotted and what you could try, with an evidence line so you can see why it is being suggested.
If an item does not make sense for you, that is fine. Skip it.
Dismissing a recommendation
If a recommendation does not apply to you, tap the small X to the right of the item to dismiss it. That particular recommendation will not come back.
There is no "This helped" button at the moment. The app learns from what you keep logging, not from explicit thumbs-up feedback.
When recommendations refresh
Recommendations are refreshed together with your daily insights as you log more data, but they do not necessarily change every day. If nothing has changed in your patterns, the same items stay. That is fine.
If a recommendation seems strange or wrong
- Remember that recommendations are based only on what you have logged in the app.
- If you have not been logging much, the items will be very general or absent.
- Log a few more days, then come back. The list will refresh.
- You can also tap the X to dismiss a single item if it is off.
These are starting points to discuss with your neurologist or GP, not diagnoses.
