Trustworthy & Accurate

I love supporting female founded businesses. I’m happy to say that after 1.5 years, this app has never once let me down. It’s intuitive, versatile, and evolves with us. It takes a few cycles to adjust then accurately predicts all cycles. The only time it’s been “off” was after I had a major surgery and the stress changed my cycle by a few days. But the app acclimated quickly. You get to track your cycle, make sense of your recurring symptoms, and connect with your partner. What’s most important to me is that it helps me understand my body better by recognizing patterns in my cycle. Not just period prediction but tracking my emotional states, breakouts, mental focus, and other sensitive areas that sometimes leave us feeling like we don’t know our own bodies. Remember, if you choose this app- it can only help you track if you remember to journal your symptoms regularly! That being said, it’s a reminder to prioritize and monitor your self check-ins.

Response from developer

Hi Coach, as a female founded team, your words mean so much. We’re glad Lively has grown with you over 1.5 years and helped you spot patterns beyond period dates, from symptoms to emotional shifts and self check-ins. Your journaling reminder is perfect 🤍 Many thanks, Medina, Lively Team!

Disappointed

Very disappointed and upset I’ve had my account for about two months and had long tons of information and I went on to log the next day and my account was gone along with all my information. I don’t use any other tracker so the fact I just lots months of progress is upsetting because now there is no way of getting my correct dates and I have to start over.
Also your notifications do not work no matter what settings you have on which makes it difficult to constantly track symptoms or know when the next cycle is starting

payment

a wonderful app, seems incredible with all of the features and help. but the cost is what thrown me off completely. surely being a woman wanting to track and support herself with her cycle shouldn’t have to come with a price. but i understand that is how money is made, no other issues apart from that. maybe a monthly fee instead of yearly could help?

Good

So far so good better than most already

Game changer

The Lively app has helped me keep track of where I am in my cycle and this has made such a difference because it’s so accurate. I pair it with herbal teas that support different stages of your cycle so it really keeps me on track. I’ve heard of other apps but this one ain’t broken. I love it!

There’s room for improvement but love overall

i love lively but I’d love to see some new concepts added in and being about to tailor your profile to what you want to see.

so helpful for someone with PMDD

As a woman with PMDD, this app is so helpful and worth the money. i am able to track when my PMS dates will be and what will genuinely help lift my mood and balance my hormones. Not only that, but the app TEACHES you why an activity or a food might be helpful and how to do it/prepare it if it’s a food. The partner aspect of it is great, as my mood does affect my boyfriends. Him having the app and being able to check on me through it, and especially for him to learn about what is going on in my body and mind, is so helpful.

Pay to use

After adding in all ur info ur put onto a pay page that has no x buttons and no way out of it you can unfortunately only use this app if you pay for it what a scam

SCAM

It said I had a 7 week trial and charged me $11.98? And I try to do the support chat on the app and it’s not available. How convenient. This whole app is so laggy and don’t believe everything it tells you. WORST APP EVER! Read the comments! That’s what I should’ve done. Im reporting the app for sure.

10/10

Easiest menstrual app to track. Best on the market. Try it before trying any other apps

I love it but..

It’s a great app, but as someone who has irregular periods, it doesn’t let me add the dates right. when I add that it was for example the 8-10th but then try to add that it was the 15-20th it takes away the previous thing. Why can’t I add both!

Trash

No woman should have to pay to track her cycle, pregnancy or anything

Not free

They make you go through adding in all your info only to make you pay 29.99. Very deceiving app.

Great Start

I don’t get my period but have been struggling with PMDD for a while and was aware that 2 weeks of my month felt very different from the others. This app has helped immensely with working with my body as opposed to against it. The premium version is absolutely worth it and is very fairly priced. I like that you can add your own symptoms, but I wish you could make your own category as well. For example I like tracking how motivated I feel at different points in my cycle as someone with ADD, so it would be nice if I could make a “how bad is my ADD?” And then put low, medium, high for example. I think also instead of showing what symptoms are typical at points in my cycle, it would be helpful to have a way to track what kind of things or activities were helpful in the past for feeling my best so I can better establish routines. Other than that I can’t recommend this app enough it has changed my life!

Thank you so much for sharing this. We’re really glad Lively has helped you work with your body and feel more supported with PMDD. Your ideas around custom categories and tracking helpful routines are thoughtful, and we’ll share them with the team ✨ Thanks so much, Medina, Lively Team!

Lovely app

It’s so easy to access and listens to your word

NOT FREE

You have to pay for the app

Good App

I really like this app. The mood & symptom tracker as well as partner sharing is fantastic, I just wish it had an option to skip periods! As an IUD haver, I don’t really menstruate normally, but still want to track my symptoms and hormonal fluctuations. Other than that I really enjoy it!

Amazing!

I love the easy layout and all the extra information this app gives you in regard to the foods to eat and workouts to do during each part of your cycle.
I don’t mind paying the money because I can see where it’s going.
10/10 recommend.

Monthly subscription

Didn’t know I needed to pay for this. Nothing about a subscription was mentioned until I completed the introductory questions. I’m good, no thanks.

Do I need to pay to use this app?

I wanted to try this app but it’s a paywall that stops me and I’m trying to find the x button because I don’t want to pay
