United StatesThe WeatherX Forecast app is your solution to forecast barometric pressure changes. Use this app in conjunction with your WeatherX earplugs as a proactive approach to help manage your weather-related headaches. How to: Place your earplugs in prior to the shift in barometric pressure (as notified by a push notification) OR at the start of any symptoms. With the WeatherX Forecast app, you have access to: -A full 5-day barometric pressure forecast -A full 5-day barometric pressure historical record -Push notifications alerting upcoming weather systems -Customizable pressure threshold (adjust your sensitivity to barometric pressure shifts in "Settings”) -Changeable location -Organized and easy-to-understand presentation of barometric pressure data
Helpful for Long COVID and POTS
I can’t speak to the effectiveness of the ear plugs and have only used the app, but it’s the only place I’ve found that will provide both a forecast and history for barometric pressure. For those of us with health issues that flare up with major pressure changes, it’s helpful to get alerts when a change is coming or to be able to look at what’s been happening with the pressure to understand if it’s responsible for a recent change in symptoms. I’ve recommended this to several fellow POTS and Long COVID patients after a sudden weather front led to really quick and scary cognitive symptoms that basically put me out of commission for half a day. The app or earplugs may not be able to prevent to treat everyone’s symptoms, but the information itself is valuable! Thank you!
United StatesNot exactly what I was expecting
I was looking for an app to alert me when there were pressure changes, and the app can do this if there are large changes in the pressure. However, if the pressure change is gradual, it will not alert me for those changes. So after a few hours I will feel a difference but the app didn’t alert me to the drop in pressure. Also, the app alert is not helpful because it doesn’t say if the pressure change is positive or negative, and then I have to open the app anyway to see what kind of pressure change it really was. Not as helpful as I would have liked, but if I watch the app then I can tell when to make sure that I take my meds.
United StatesLove the shift warning
I really appreciate being warned that a shift in pressure is coming.
United StatesAccuracy issues
App refuses to update to current location, rendering it useless when not at home. Data conflicts greatly with weather underground. The ear plugs help but do not eliminate issues with barometric fluctuations.
United StatesLove the earplugs! They work wonderfully!
The earplugs work wonders for someone like me who has severe, chronic, migraines and many are caused by the barometric pressure changes. The two things I wish we had options on is color, specifically a clear, or less muted colors for wearing in public, but most importantly a way to log migraines within the app. Nothing special, but it would Help me tremendously to track just a simple little mark a migraine here at this time in order to see if it’s always a pattern based on the pressure. While there are tons of migraine logs out there, it’s a pain to go back and forth if I want to see a history when most of those don’t contain the information yours does.
United StatesLove it
I just love this app. I suffer with chronic migraines. This app gives me a warning of an impending migraine. I can take my meds before I go out of my mind in pain. It is so accurate. I only wish I had found it sooner…like 30 years sooner.
United StatesPressure related head pain
I am afflicted with barometric pressure related migraines. No only do I have the classic symptoms I also have sudden piercing transient ear pain like someone stuck an ice pick in my ear. My Weather X ear plugs (ordered directly from the application) are a life saver. I also use them when flying because if I don’t I feel excruciating pain upon ascent and descent. Thank you Weather X.
