What the Recalibration banner means

Every now and then, when you open MigraineMe, a friendly little banner appears near the top of the home screen. It says MigraineMe has suggestions for you, with a short line underneath: "Based on your recent data, we have some recommendations to improve your setup." There is also a small sparkle icon on the left.

This is the Recalibration banner. It is the app's way of saying: "I have been watching, and I think I can do a slightly better job for you. Would you like to take a look?"

You do not need to do anything when you see it. It is just an invitation.

These steps are the same on iPhone and Android.

What "recalibration" means

The app uses your data to guess what raises your migraine risk. Over time, as you log more migraines and connect more devices, the guesses can be made more accurate. Once a week, MigraineMe quietly looks back at everything it has learned and, if your data has genuinely shifted, prepares a short list of changes it would like to suggest, for example:

1. "We think caffeine matters less for you than we first thought."
2. "We think your sleep matters more than we first thought."
3. "We think this new trigger might be worth tracking."

Nothing is changed without your say-so. The banner is only there to ask.

The weekly check is part of the premium plan. It runs every Monday for people on the free trial or a subscription.

How to find it

1. Open MigraineMe.
2. Look at the top of the home screen, near the big circle.
3. If there is anything to suggest, you will see a card with the sparkle icon and the words MigraineMe has suggestions for you.
4. If there is nothing new to suggest, the banner will not appear at all. This is normal. Most weeks nothing has shifted, so most weeks it will not be there.

If you do not see this, that just means there is nothing for you to review right now.

What happens when you tap it

1. Tap anywhere on the banner.
2. A review screen opens with the suggestions, each one explained in plain words.
3. For each suggestion, you can read what MigraineMe is proposing and tick or untick it.
4. You can apply the ones you like, or close the screen and ignore them all.
5. If you close without doing anything, nothing changes in your setup.

The banner will then go away until the next time the app has new suggestions for you.

When does the banner appear?

The app checks every Monday, but it only prepares suggestions when your data has actually shifted. In practice:

1. New users usually see their first banner once they have logged about 5 attacks.
2. After that, banners appear only on the weeks where something meaningful changed. Quiet weeks with no banner are completely normal.
3. When suggestions are ready, you will also get a push notification saying your weekly check-in found something, so you do not have to keep looking.

If you would rather not see it

The banner is small and easy to ignore. You can simply scroll past it. It will disappear once you have reviewed the suggestions, or when a new weekly check replaces them.

If the banner ever shows up but the screen behind it looks blank when you tap it:

1. On iPhone, pull down on the home screen to refresh.
2. Close the app fully and open it again.
3. If it still looks empty, write to us at help@migraineme.app and we will sort it out.

You are always in charge of what the app does. The banner is a question, not a command.
