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.

Community Voice & Feedback
Growing up, I thought taking your temperature to track fertility was an old wives tale. Access to this kind of data and information about my cycle has been transformative.
Natural Cycles has helped me easily learn the patterns of my body and my cycle. Creates a lot of peace of mind for me! Would recommend!
Of course it’s another one of those stupid apps that all they want is your money and your information. I’m totally not okay with that. Please take my word for it.
Everything is stuck behind a pay wall. Why do I need to pay a stupid amount of money to track my period. It’s terrible that women have to go through a normal body experience then have to pay to keep track of it. Would not recommend!!
This app is designed to use your temperature every morning to determine fertility (ovulation). Every single month, it has ovulation showing for the 16-17th of the cycle. I know for a fact I ovulate earlier than that, & no matter how much data you add, the dates never change…how effective. It’s too expensive for it to not even be tracking anything…find something better, ladies.
Got pregnant using it perfectly as a preventative measure.
I like this app for the detailed insight of fertility windows. However it’s hard to use the thermometer per their instructions if you sleep poorly often / have kids waking you up multiple times. It’s hard to meet their temp taking requirements! The battery lasts about a year in the meter it’s self which is nice. So, with the temp taking reqs being ridged I find getting accurate consistent results to be tough.
It seems that since I’m unable to log periods myself this app can’t track whether a cycle is happening, even with an Oura ring. It claims to be able to, but it hasn’t yet. I was charged for the year without being allowed to cancel and customer service has been unhelpful. This app has zero functionality for me.
Everytime I try to snap a pic of my ovulation test, it’s super blurry
I have been using natural cycles for a year now as birth control and have had no scares. I love that it’s completely natural and I don’t have to do anything harmful to my body
I started using Natural Cycles when the pandemic started and I couldn’t get in to see my doctor for my BC. My boyfriend (now husband) and I agreed to get off of it and use the tracking app. I loved it for preventing, and I loved it for when we started trying to get pregnant.
I had been on hormonal birth control for 15+ years and so eager to go off of it but nervous about how I would effectively track my cycle and have safe sex. This app has been amazing! The user experience is wonderful and there’s great educational resources. I’m a huge fan!
I struggled to keep up with my cycle at first, but once I got an oura ring to sync with the app, it became super easy. I love getting a notification that my period is approaching and just not needing to deal with external hormones in my body. Highly recommend the app!!
After the app allowed me to fully set up, taking all of my personal information, it wouldn’t let me get past the wearable device section without paying. terrible!
After being on every form of birth control for the last 16 years, I’m thrilled with Natural Cycles. I have learned SO MUCH about my body. I have it paired with Oura ring and its membership was reimbursed by my health insurance!
