FemCal: The Fertility Calendar App Reviews

54 add

Femcal deleted all my info

I updated femcal and lost all my information. My ovulation days , period, base temp.. I was thinking it was a good app until that happened.

Good for tracking but...

I find this the easiest way to track my cycle; way better than using a paper based chart first thing in the morning. The only trouble is when i email the charts to myself, none of the links work! So, i have the data on my phone, but I cant save or print anything as it says. Disappointing and something I hope theyll fix soon!

Good, could be better

It mostly does what its supposed to, but has some issues for me. For example, the chart gets real crowded if you have a long cycle and you cant zoom in without it crashing. Also the 70 day cycle length limit is pretty annoying, given that people who use this sort of app are pretty likely to have some issues with fertility. Would be nice to have more of the tcoyf options, like cervical height, or watery CF. Its great that you can add symptoms and medications, but it would be nice if you could also select ovulation day and set the coverline yourself. Definitely overpriced - some of the free ones seem almost as good, or even better.

Love this app

I have been using this for a few years now and think it is a great app for tracking fertility. However, it would be nice if it worked with Apple health. Also, please add an Apple Watch app.

Great app - one suggestion

Love this app. Makes tracking my cycle effortless and keeps data handy so I can record syptoms throughout the day. One suggestion, though: any way to account for increased temps due to sleeping in?

Pretty decent with a couple problems

This app is the closest to what i have been looking for. However It would be nice to be able to manually change the coverline. Also, I added my own symptoms yesterday and today they were all gone. Not too happy about that. Otherwise a great app.

Long term charters opinion

I have charted off & on for 10 years, mostly using TCOYF/Ovusoft. The ease of using an iPhone app is wonderful! This app provides most of what my paper charts did, where the others Ive tried do not. At the moment this is my favorite. (-) critisism: difficult to navigate to the charts, I paid more because I downloaded the lite (upgrade should be less), the transfer of data from lite to femcal dropped some of my data, difficulty viewing outside the app, ... I will give another review once Ive used it a few cycles & can see if it is accurate for abnormal cycles charters lile me.

Great app! Needs a pregnancy feature!

I love this app! Ive been using it for a few months now. The only request I have is a pregnancy feature. We spend so much time trying to GET pregnant that when we finally are this app becomes useless. Even just a switch to flip to do a due date count down. Keep up the great work!

Great app

Worth the money if you are serious about charting. I like that it stores your previous cycles. Would be helpful if the graph and calendar would accept 2 decimal places like basal body temp thermometers.

Great app.

But I wish it had an option for avoiding or achieving pregnancy. Something as simple as switching the green and red colors of ovulation days. Also, a pregnancy chart once its achieved would be nice too.

Awesome!

I love this app. Have absolutely not complaints and I hope that it helps me to achieve pregnancy!

I like this app. Easy to use and very portable! :D

I love the portability of it. I can add symptoms from wherever I am, instead of waiting to get home and adding to my computer. I have practiced NFP for about 10 years. I am used to many online software versions. This one is comparable to all of them, but with more portability! The only thing I find lacking is the CM data. We need more options. I would like to be able to click dry on dry days instead of leaving blank. Also I want wet/watery options as well. Another improvment I would also like to see is the Cervix. I would hope you would have a low and high for that as well. In the Symptoms section, I would suggest adding Frequent urination and exhaustion as well. Although not positive signs, they are symptoms many women track. I will continue to use this software and hope these options are made available. Dont get my review wrong. Although I offer several suggestions, I am still happy with the software and its ease of use. I would just add a few details thats all.

Error with the password

Older versions are better than this new version for the itouch. The new version, the password does not come up everytime you open the app. I wish it did, thats how it was in the previous versions. Also when the password pops up its all the way above my screen so I cant see what Im typing. I wish I could go back to the older version. Overall this is a great application I like it for keeping track of my period. Its the only one which uses the fertility awareness method.

NFP made easy

This software is an immense aid in keeping track of cycles/fertility. The customer support services are wonderful.

Good app

I wish you could discard errant temps - like due to alcohol - and put in the time you took your temp. I also wish you could track cervical position. Otherwise, this is pretty good!

Doesnt save data.

Aside from this $7.00 app displaying adds, it doesnt save your data. Ive entered the information for the past few days and it doesnt seem to want to save. In my opinion, its useless if it cant save the data you enter.

Newbie

I am so happy to have the portability of this app. I am new to charting and have felt daunted by having to use paper charts. This is so much better!! It seems to have most of the same charting criteria.

Pretty good

Closest Ive found to the tcoyf software. It may appear to only keep/calculate for the past 4-7 cycles but if you scroll back through the callenders it will come back. Agree with the need for logging temp times and omitting errant temps.

Good but needs to follow TCOYF rules better

I really enjoy using this app. I just wish it adhered more closely to the TCOYF book. I dont know what rule this app uses to determine a temperature shift and/or coverline, but its not accurate. I still chart on paper because of this. This app would be confusing/inaccurate for women who have not studied the book and understand the fertility rules. Please change the temperature shift and coverline to match the book!

Didn

App was okay, but it didnt show didnt show fertile days. Request way too much data. I disable and downloaded an another app. I didnt have time to trouble shoot why it wasnt showing me all my data. Probably good if you want to track a lot of information.
