CEFALY Migraine Relief

One message I’d give someone who’s new to living with migraine: tracking and preventative treatments are your friend. That’s where CEFALY comes in. This app combines tracking features, enhanced use of the CEFALY connected device and accessible settings all in one place. I love that it can be toggled into dark mode to help the light sensitivity I get often with migraine attacks. CEFALY has been such a helpful part of managing migraine for me, for the past 10 years. This app just makes it even more helpful.

This app is unbelievably bad. In theory, the app should made the device easy to use, allowing you to start / end treatments, control intensity, and track use. In reality, however, the app asks for your device pin every single time you log on (why?!!!!); takes ages to connect, and then disconnects numerous times during treatment (and every time you try to reconnect it asks for your pin again 🤦🏻‍♀️). I can be holding the phone less than 10 inches from my face while sound treatments and it will tell me the connection is weak or I’ve been disconnected. Unfortunately, without the ability to use the app, the device itself is clunky and hard to control. I’m very disappointed and expected better from such an expensive device.

Update: yeah, nvm. Still just as many bugs as Cece. Does not save your pin like it states it will, asks you to enter your details about your migraine patterns EVERY time you open the app, doesn't keep track of your migraines or sessions, and sends random notifications (even when my notifications are off). Original review: Might update my stars later but so far this has fixed most of the bugs Cece was plagued with. It saves your pin so you don't have to continuously re-enter it, the device is much easier to connect, the controls are more intuitive, and it's a cleaner layout. I don't like the constant notifications, and I wish there was an "intensity down" button, but as of yet, this definitely beats the Cece app.
