Premom is often used for tracking ovulation and cycle days. If you already use it, MigraineMe may be able to read your period information so you do not need to log it twice. The way this works is different on iPhone and on Android.
Last known update
On Android, Premom does not currently share cycle data with other apps through Health Connect, even when Health Connect is installed on your phone. This is a choice by the people who make Premom and is outside our control. Android users, please skip down to the Android section.
On iPhone the link works well, because Premom saves to Apple Health.
On iPhone
Premom writes your period dates into Apple Health. MigraineMe reads from Apple Health. So once you turn permission on, the data flows through on its own.
- Open MigraineMe.
- Tap the gear icon in the top-left of the screen.
- Tap Connections.
- Find Apple Health and tap Connect. If it already says Connected, skip to step 6.
- A window from your iPhone will appear. Tap Turn On All (or make sure Menstruation is on), then Allow.
- Open the drawer again, tap Data and Notifications, and check the Menstruation switch is on. Connecting Apple Health turns it on for you.
MigraineMe copies up to a year of period days from Apple Health.
You are connected. Your Premom cycle history will start showing up inside MigraineMe.
If no popup appeared
Your iPhone may have remembered an old answer. Here is how to turn the permission on by hand:
- Open the Settings app on your iPhone (the grey gear, not MigraineMe).
- Tap Apps, then Health.
- Tap Data Access & Devices.
- Find MigraineMe in the list and tap it.
- Turn Menstruation on.
- Open MigraineMe again.
If you still see no data
Open Premom and look in its own settings for an Apple Health option. Make sure the switch for sharing is on. Then return to MigraineMe.
On Android
As mentioned above, Premom on Android does not currently share its data through Health Connect. So even if you turn everything on inside MigraineMe, your Premom information will not appear.
If Premom adds Health Connect support later, the steps will be:
- Open MigraineMe.
- Tap the gear icon in the top-left of the screen, then Connections.
- Find Health Connect and tap Connect.
- A Health Connect window will appear. Make sure Menstruation is on, then tap Allow.
- Open the drawer again, tap Data and Notifications, and turn on the Menstruation switch.
In the meantime, the simplest way on Android is to log your period directly inside MigraineMe. It only takes a second.
Logging directly in MigraineMe (recommended on Android)
- Open MigraineMe.
- Tap the Monitor tab at the bottom.
- Scroll to the Menstruation card.
- Tap it.
- Under Log a Period, tap Select date.
- Pick the day your period started.
- Tap Add.
You only need to mark the first day. MigraineMe handles the rest of the cycle prediction on its own.
If you forget on the day, you can pick any past date in the same box later and log it then.
Privacy
MigraineMe does not connect to Premom directly. On iPhone it only reads what Premom has chosen to share with Apple Health, and only after you tap Allow. You can switch the link off any time in Data and Notifications → Menstruation in the drawer. On iPhone, periods you log in MigraineMe are also saved to Apple Health.
