You do not have to ask for a recalibration. MigraineMe will let you know when it has something to suggest. It does this with a small, friendly banner on the home screen, and a push notification so you do not miss it. You can ignore both for as long as you like.
These steps are the same on iPhone and Android.
What the banner looks like
- Open MigraineMe.
- Look near the top of the home screen, by the big circle that shows your risk for today.
- If there is a recalibration ready for you, you will see a card with a small sparkle icon and the words MigraineMe has suggestions for you.
- Underneath, in smaller text, it says something like "Based on your recent data, we have some recommendations to improve your setup."
If you do not see this banner, that simply means there is nothing new to review right now. You do not need to do anything.
When does the banner appear?
If you have Premium or are on your free trial, the app runs a check once a week, on Mondays. It only prepares suggestions when your data has genuinely shifted, so a check does not always lead to a banner. In practice:
- New users usually see their first banner two to four weeks after signing up.
- Existing users see one only on the weeks where something meaningful changed. Silent weeks are normal.
- After connecting a new wearable (ring, watch, food app), you can often expect a banner within a week or two, because there is suddenly fresh data to learn from.
- After a recent migraine is sometimes when a banner appears, because the new data point lets the app refine its guesses.
If nothing changes in your routine and you do not log many entries, the banner may stay away for a long time. That is normal.
How you are told
- When the weekly check finds something, you get a push notification saying your check-in found something worth reviewing.
- The banner stays on the home screen until you review the suggestions, or until a new weekly check replaces them.
- There is one notification per weekly check. The app does not send reminders after that.
Asking for one early
There is no button to run the weekly check early. If you have been using MigraineMe for a while and feel the app is not quite tuned to you, you can go back through setup instead:
- Open MigraineMe, tap the gear icon in the top-left, and tap Profile.
- Tap the Redo Onboarding card.
- Go through your data settings and the questions again. MigraineMe recalibrates your profile from your new answers.
If the banner appears but the screen looks empty
- Pull down on the home screen to refresh.
- Tap the banner again.
- If it still looks blank, close MigraineMe fully and open it again.
- If the screen says "No learning this week", that just means the data was not enough after all. Tap Got it and you can carry on.
You are always in charge. The banner is a polite question, never a command.
