WHY NATURAL CYCLES? Natural Cycles is more than a period tracker. Most other fertility tracking apps assume your cycle is 28 days long, even though 87% of women have cycle lengths that don't fit into the 28 day pattern.. We understand that birth control is not a one-size-fits-all. Your cycle is unique to you! Our algorithm uses personalized temperature data to confirm your ovulation, reducing the risk of you being assigned an incorrect fertile day. Unlike period trackers, the NC° app allows you to identify your fertility status daily, so you can prevent pregnancy or plan for it with greater precision. From birth control to planning pregnancy and every cycle in between – Natural Cycles is there for you with each stage of your fertility journey. Still not sure? Download the app and test out our Demo Mode. The app supports syncing with Apple Health. *E.

PRECAUTIONS: ● Natural Cycles does not protect against sexually transmitted infections (STIs). Use a condom to protect against STIs. ● No method of birth control is 100% effective. Even when using the birth control app perfectly, there is still a chance of getting pregnant. ● Natural Cycles is for women over the age of 18. ● We recommend a minimum of 2-3 cycles to get the most out of your Natural Cycles subscription. ● Our subscription fee helps to protect you and your data.

Ratings and reviews

Honestly, I like the UI of the Flo app better than this one (& the price) flo felt more intuitive & fun. BUT this app connects to my Oura ring/ app & seems to be the most reliable when it comes to birth control. There's partner view for my hubby. & even if I forget to open the app for days, it syncs past temperature data quickly& keeps me up to date on what My body is doing.

As a recent update, I have had issues with payment every single year that I have tried to start or update my subscription. This has happened with multiple banks. This is not an issue on my bank's end, but rather on the Natural Cycles side. I will be cancelling my subscription due. It's been nearly impossible to connect my thermometer and have the temperature recorded in the app. It feels like the app is essentially requiring me to pay for the expensive oura ring or get an apple watch.

I love this app. It's a great tool to help you when trying to prevent pregnancy. They also have trying to conceive, pregnancy, and postpartum modes but I haven't had the chance to try those yet. Sometimes the app is a bit overly cautious with the red days but that's how they ensure they keep their high percentage of effectiveness. I've been tracking my cycle and ovulation for a while so I use it more to supplement what I already know and it does a great job. I love that it links to my Oura too.
