AI companions are friendly characters in the app, each one focusing on a different part of migraine care (sleep, hormones, stress, food, weather, and so on). They act as curators: when there is an article or a piece of reading that matches their focus and your profile, they flag it for you.
You do not need to pick all of them. Picking one or two is fine. Picking none is also fine. You can change your mind whenever you like.
How to open the companions screen
This is the same on iPhone and Android.
- Open MigraineMe.
- Tap the gear icon in the top-left of the screen. The side drawer slides in.
- Tap Manage Items.
- Scroll down to the AI Companions row.
- Tap it.
The AI Companions screen opens with a list of companions you can follow or unfollow.
Looking through the list
- You will see a column of cards, one per companion.
- Each card has a small round picture on the left, a name, and a short description of what they focus on (for example sleep, food, weather).
- Scroll down to see all of them.
Following a companion
- Each card has a small switch on it.
- Tap the switch to follow that companion. The card lights up with a purple outline to show it is followed.
- Tap the switch again to unfollow.
There is no limit. You can follow as many or as few companions as you like.
What happens after you follow one
Articles your followed companions flag appear in your feed in the Community area (tap the people icon in the top-right of any tab, then look at the Articles feed). The For You list leans towards the topics your companions cover.
If you would like a notification when a companion adds something to your feed, there is an AI companion switch on the Notifications card (gear icon, then Data and Notifications, then the Notifications card). It is optional.
What if I do not want any of them
That is fine. Leave the list empty. Everything else in the app works exactly the same. You can come back and follow some at any time.
A small note
Companions are not people. They do not see your data in any private way. They are simply different "voices" for the same tips and articles. Think of them as labels on a folder of advice, not as friends watching your every move.
