Made a mistake? Logged something twice? Want to remove a migraine you logged by accident? No problem. It is a quick fix and it will not affect anything else in the app.
Finding the entry
This is the same on iPhone and Android.
- Open MigraineMe.
- Tap the Journal tab at the bottom of the screen.
- Scroll up or down through the list. Migraines appear as cards with a pink Migraine label at the top.
- Find the one you want to remove. Look at the date and time to be sure.
Removing it
- Tap the small three dots next to the entry's label. A menu opens with Edit and Delete.
- Tap Delete.
- A small box pops up titled Delete entry? with the message "This action can't be undone."
- Tap Delete to confirm. Tap Cancel if you change your mind.
The card disappears straight away.
What happens when you delete
When you delete a migraine, the app removes:
- The migraine itself.
- The severity score you gave it.
- The triggers you linked to that specific attack.
- The medicines you linked to that attack.
- Any reliefs, symptoms, prodromes, locations, and activities tied to it.
- Any note you wrote for that attack.
Things the app picked up on its own, like weather or sleep, stay in your record. They are just no longer linked to that migraine.
Things in your pool are not removed. So if you had "stress" in your trigger pool before, "stress" stays in your pool. Only the link between that specific migraine and "stress" is removed.
Can I undo a delete?
Not directly. Once you have confirmed the delete, the entry is gone for good.
If you deleted something by mistake, you can log it again from memory:
- Tap the Log tab.
- Tap Log Migraine.
- Set the date and time back to when it actually happened.
- Fill in what you remember.
This will not be the exact same entry, but it will sit in roughly the right place in your timeline.
Will it change my charts?
Yes, a little. Your migraine count for that week or month will go down by one, and your charts on Insights will update the next time you open them. This is normal.
If something else looks wrong
If you only want to fix a small detail (for example, the wrong start time, or you forgot to tick a trigger), do not delete the entry. Use Edit instead:
- Tap the three dots next to the entry's label, then Edit.
- Change what you need.
- Tap Update Log on the last step.
That way you keep the entry and just correct the part that was off.
You can come back to the Journal as often as you like. Nothing about the journal can break the app.
