Functional, easy to use tracking app
I have tried several period tracking apps and it's hard to find a free one that provides analysis and insights like Pregmate Ovulation Tracker does. I like that it shows you cycle trends for your last three cycles and visualizations for the fertile windows within your cycle. I especially like that it has a dedicated feature for tracking whether you took a pregnancy test with an option to take a photo of the result. Tracking when I take pregnancy tests is very important to me since I have irregular, long cycles so having this feature is definitely a game changer for me so that I keep testing on schedule.

Easy to use!
I really like the simplicity of this app. You can log your period, track your symptoms, it predicts your ovulation date, and Indicates if you have a low or high chance of conceiving on any particular day. When used in combination with the Pregmate ovulation test strips this app will help you to conceive! The best part is that you can take pictures of your Pregmate ovulation tests in the app and it will help you determine if it’s a positive test, or a low test… and once you’ve seen your LH peak it will indicate that based on your test results! One tiny suggestion I have is I would like to see the app highlight what cycle day you are on (based on when you started your period) this would be extremely helpful. Also if the app could predict an approximate “due date” if you were to conceive during that cycle (based on the predicted ovulation day) I think that would be really cool. Adding in those 2 small things would make this app even better!

Perfect for Ovulation Test Charting
I love that this app lets you manually control all the data that you add surrounding your test results rather than forcing you to rely on inaccurate detection from your camera like other apps I’ve used. This means more control, more accurately recorded data, and less frustration surrounding data entry. I’ve tried many other apps for recording ovulation tests (all from companies who designed their apps to use alongside their test strips) and none of them even come close to being as seamless and functional to use. I could not recommend this app more if you’re looking to chart ovulation tests.

Best ovulation tracking app out there
I love this app and I love their products. I have been going through ivf for the last year so I have tried every app and every ovulation predictor kit out there. The design of this app is so simple and easy to read and navigate through. The day to day symptom logging and test taking is so easy as well. When I heard pregmate made an app I was very happy because of how much I love their products. So to be able to use the products and the app together makes things so easy. Everyone’s fertility journey is unique. Going through ivf is not simple so to have an app and to have products I can count on mean the world to me. It really makes you feel like you have some control in a topic where the control is so out of your hands.

Easy to use but…
I go back and forth between this app and another app. I love that this one has the ability to track ovulation with their products (both strips and digital) and allows you to document the tests at different times of the day without altering the entire day. My only complaints and reason I still use my other app is because I haven’t noticed the peak windows or high vs low fertility to change with the results of the ovulation tests meaning it could be incorrect. For example, the other day I had a positive digital test and positive strip, but the app still said low fertility whereas my other changed the entire window to reflect my ovulation tests. The other app also allows me to document more symptoms than this one does. If you’re looking for a simple app to use along with the tests you use, this one is good. Could use a little help.

Great, but fertility window estimate is iffy
This app is the most clean-cut fertility tracking app I have ever seen or used, and it does not have any ads. The design is very sleek and easy on the eyes. It is simple to input your data for periods and LH test strip results. Many apps do not have a feature to log LH test results, and are geared more towards another method of tracking, so this one is really a great find!
However, the one con with it is that it appears to not take the user’s data into account when estimating the fertile window. For example, I entered my data of menstrual cycles, negative and positive LH tests for previous cycles, and the information did not seem to change what the app predicted would be my fertile window. But, anything an app predicts regarding fertility should be taken with a grain of salt anyway! :)
Also, the calendar view of it doesn’t have a bold, “this is your fertile window!” indicator. You have to view each individual day to see if the app says that it is a fertile day or not. Overall, it is a handy place to store the information you have gathered from LH testing!

Needs some work
I have been using Pregmate strips to help predict my ovulation since I got my IUD removed so I had high hopes for this app. Unfortunately there is still a lot of work to be done.
Firstly, I put in my most recent cycle data, and on my current cycle I ovulated on day 19, however the app still said my fertile window was day 8-15, even with positive LH test data on day 18 and negative on days 12-17. So it does not appear to be capable of utilizing its own data to make accurate predictions. Then, I went through and input my last 8 period days and LH test results, which was a painful process - each time I added any information it brought me back to today and I had to painstakingly scroll back to whatever month I was working on.
Another huge problem is that there is no other fertility data involved - BBT is crucial to knowing if we actually ovulated, and cervical mucous is another key indicator. I understand not all users may want to use these features but they need to be an option for anyone who is taking their cycle tracking seriously, either to get pregnant or avoid it.
I will definitely be sticking with Natural Cycles for now, and recommend Ovia for folks not wanting to pay the cost or whose insurance companies aren’t yet reimbursing for it.

Excited!
Upon looking this app over, I’m super excited to use it to track my TTC journey. I love that you can take pictures of the test strips. Previously I had tried saving strips in a Ziploc bag which was less than ideal. This will be much more sanitary. I also love the daily indicator of fertility chances, that’s so helpful! I wish there was an obvious way to adjust cycle length, as mine has always been irregular/longer. I also love the ability to track symptoms, it’s quite detailed. I like being able to track the spotting coloration as well. The opportunity for growth would be to add discharge consistency throughout the cycle. I’m so excited for all of this data to be in one place, I hope this will be a game changer for our TTC journey!

Some glitches but when fixed will be great
1) picture feature is great for test but it doesnt accurately pick the correct color after uploading a picture
2) on the main screen and the calendar - it says different levels of fertility, ie on the Home Screen it says high fertility and then for the same day on the calendar it says low. A bit confusing!
3) would love the ability to scroll along my cycle rather than having to click on the calendar days

I love this app
I really like this tracker because the design is clean and simple, it’s intuitive to use. I did a lot of research before committing to the app. This company has done it right. I never have to guess when my cycle is coming. The app tells you when your chances of getting pregnant are high or low. I also love how the app reads your ovulation or pregnancy test for you. You just need to take a picture of your test and it gets interpreted right away. Sometimes I don’t feel like taking a picture and can just press a matching color of the line that I got. In case I ran out of my ovulation or pregnancy products I can always purchase them from the app, which is super convenient! I feel like Pregmate is one of the most comprehensive fertility apps I’ve used, and I’ve tried several over the years. My OBG asked me the other day when my last cycle was and all I had to do was open the app and all my info was right there. The app is really wonderful and I highly recommend it.
