Relief on Apple Watch tracking early signs for 2:15:08, with Headache started and Aura started

Stage by stage

Each stage has its own screen and timer. Set the pain level and where it hurts in a tap, undo for 10 seconds, and double tap to press the main button, such as Headache ended.

Headache just started, with Undo
How bad is it? Mild, Moderate, Severe or Worst ever, with Severe picked
Where it hurts: a map of the head with the front and right side picked

Dark and still when it hurts

Aura and headache screens don’t glow or move; only the timer does. Always On can hide the stage and the score.
