However this app only gives me the option for a 7 day free trial. Usually apps give you a free version that just isn’t as good as the normal one but this one I can’t even open without paying. ### 4/5 — Gut aber synch fehlt mit smart devuces die basaltemperatur tracken *2026-08-27* Wünsche mir ein Feature zur synch mit meinen Smart Ring Ringconn, der meine basaltemperatur misst und automatisch in die App überträgt. Sonst muss ich alles manuell eingeben :) **Developer response:** Das ist ein richtig hilfreicher Wunsch, gerade für Basaltemperatur und weniger manuelles Eintragen. Eine Ringconn Sync geben wir gern ans Team weiter. Du kannst sie auch direkt in der App unter „Suggest Feature“ einreichen 🫶 Vielen Dank, Medina, Lively Team! ### 2/5 — Premium purchases *2026-08-27, version 2.8.10* I’ve already payed for the app. The removal of most features unless you pay for premium is so disappointing. I really like the design in how subtle it is, but I feel like I’m paying for aesthetics. It’s very generic information that you get in its features. It’s really nothing tailored to you personally, so I’m confused as to why there’s a sudden premium membership. ### 5/5 — Love loveeee *2026-08-26, version 2.8.10* Ive been using this for almost a year now and when i tell yoi girls plss flo doesn’t compete ### 5/5 — Life Saver *2026-08-25, version 2.8.8* If you have PMDD, this app is a life saver and a game changer! ### 5/5 — Love *2026-08-25, version 2.8.8* Came from Flo Love this way better ### 5/5 — How did I survive without this? *2026-08-25, version 2.8.8* This app is so vital for an ADHD girlie like me who can barely remember where in the refrigerator she put her car keys:) I used it for a year before purchasing the yearly plan and it was so worth it. I forget to slow down before my periods and having an app that tracks it and reminds me to eat different, workout different, and prioritize sleep helps keep my anxiety and burnout to a minimum. Love this app! ### 5/5 — ADHD brain *2026-08-23, version 2.8.8* This helps my brain regulate when I’m feeling off. I can look to see where I am in my cycle and help it all make sense. ### 5/5 — Honest review *2026-08-23, version 2.8.8* LOVE THIS APP ### 2/5 — Not rational *2026-08-22, version 2.8.8* I just had twins in January and my periods have been super erratic and very long- like 50 days 🤣. This app will only record your cycle for 14 days at a time, so if you’re super irregular or have longer periods, this may not be the app for you ### 5/5 — I love this app BUT *2026-08-22, version 2.8.8* Can you please add notifications when updating MOOD and Sex drive so my partner gets notified. 🥹🙏🏼 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-09-04, version 2.8.11* I don’t download this app they will charge your card even when you subscription is cancelled ### 1/5 — This app is horrible *2026-09-04, version 2.8.11* This app is not what the advertisement showed. The free trial does not work so be aware. Apple will not allow a refund either. Delete deleted the app the same day I just started the free trial. Ridiculous. ### 1/5 — Charged without email sent. *2026-09-03, version 2.8.11* No email was sent to remind about the subscription trial end. Though I did cancel through my Apple Account, I was still charged. ### 1/5 — Bug Defects + No App Support *2026-09-01, version 2.8.10* Overall enjoying the app, paid premium and really like that my partner can track the daily updates. I tried to report a couple issues to the support team and received no response. Bug defects: 1. I’m on the pregnancy path and it still tracks a period cycle. 2. When I attempt to log a symptom it doesn’t take me to today’s date, August 31, it defaults to July 7th and I have to scroll almost 2 months to get to today. 3. Unable to save any symptoms logged for today. All these app issues started last night. ### 1/5 — Not free *2026-08-31, version 2.8.10* Very misleading, they just want downloads. Don’t download it unless you want to pay ### 1/5 — Kein kostenloses Probeabo *2026-08-28* Wollte die App nur testen und mir wurden 6€ abgebucht obwohl da stand dass man nichts bezahlen muss **Developer response:** Das ist wirklich frustrierend, gerade wenn du Lively nur testen wolltest und dann 6 € abgebucht wurden. Käufe, Testphasen und Rückerstattungen werden auf iOS direkt von Apple verwaltet. Bitte fordere die Erstattung über Apple an. Schreib uns gern an support@livelycycle.com, damit wir prüfen können, welche Anzeige missverständlich war. Alles Gute, Medina, Lively Team! ### 1/5 — why do we have to pay to track a normal bodily function. *2026-08-26, version 2.8.10* you genuinely can not use the app unless you pay. it’d 7 day free trial and then it’s money. ### 1/5 — Nicht kostenlos *2026-08-24* Ich finde es ja ziemlich assozial das man solche Apps auch kostenpflichtig macht. Fast jede Frau hat Ihre Periode und dann noch die Empfehlung eines Arztes am Anfang zu zeigen ist einfach nur unangebracht, denn junge Mädchen wissen es nicht besser zu tracken, und dann unterstützt man Männer gemachte Seiten zum tracken. Ob das auch so gut ist? Ich meine wer will die schon bitte unterstützen? **Developer response:** Es tut uns leid, dass der Start so bei dir angekommen ist. Lively lässt sich auch kostenlos nutzen; Premium ist freiwillig und finanziert ein werbefreies Angebot ohne Datenverkauf. Der ärztliche Hinweis soll Orientierung geben, nicht Druck machen, besonders nicht bei jungen Menschen. Deine Sorge nehmen wir ernst. Danke, Medina, Lively Team! ### 1/5 — Оплата *2026-08-22* Без оплаты не дает зайти в приложение. Предлагает только оплату и бесплатный период **Developer response:** Понимаю, как неприятно видеть только экран оплаты. Lively можно использовать бесплатно: базовые функции доступны без подписки, а пробный период относится к Premium. Если нет возможности закрыть предложение или продолжить без оплаты, напишите нам на support@livelycycle.com, мы разберемся 🙏 Спасибо, Medina, Lively Team! ### 1/5 — Not free *2026-08-21, version 2.8.8* It’s actually not free. It’s only free to download, then after a seven day free trial you have to pay 🙄 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Helpful and applicable *2026-09-08, version 2.8.11* Winners are trackers. I enjoy the suggestions of what to eat, but also specific types of movement during each phase of my cycle. ### 5/5 — Highly recommend! *2026-09-08, version 2.8.11* Other apps have taken far too much of an emphasis on sex when the emphasis should be on our health and regulation. I love that this app provides suggestions of things to eat, do, and how we should be moving our bodies at any given point in our cycle. It also encourages women to truly understand their own cycle, more than just tracking/logging it. The only thing that could possibly be better is if it included meal plans that we can adjust or subscribe to based on how to support our cycle. I can’t recommend this app enough! ### 5/5 — Truly Helped Me *2026-09-07, version 2.8.11* After I downloaded this app I didn’t use it regularly enough. Once I committed to following their suggestions it has helped to improve my mental health significantly. ### 5/5 — 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾 *2026-09-06, version 2.8.11* This is the best tracker app I’ve had. I actually can’t stand the color pink so that was my first reason for downloading LOL. The colors are so calming, and there’s a dark mode. The design of the whole app feels so intentional. Tons of symptom-logging options, and a mode for pregnancy, postpartum and menopause as well. The free version offers the perfect amount of basics and it’s not obnoxious AT ALL about getting you to pay for premium. Makes me want to pay 😂 ### 5/5 — So far so Good *2026-09-03, version 2.8.11* I love the that it’s so detailed about food and options of activities based on the phase I’m in now. I don’t have to guess and I can keep track! ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-09-02, version 2.8.11* It’s beautiful and useful. It’s helped me learn about the cycles and women founded and owned. Highly recommend. ### 5/5 — Incredible Tech Support *2026-09-01, version 2.8.11* I experienced a glitch and after talking to the ai bot, a real human joined and assured me they are treating the issue as a priority. I was then asked to redownload the app after an update was made, probably to fix the exact glitch I had told them about!!! Incredible ### 5/5 — Wrote an in-depth review, and accidentally deleted it. *2026-08-31, version 2.8.10* Like the title says, I spent 10 minutes writing a praise worthy review of the pros and few cons of this app. Accidentally deleted it all. Now I’m keeping it brief. The paid version of this app is far superior, I love it, but the free version is great for certain tasks. I got Lively because I needed help tracking my periods. Now, it’s become more than that. It helps me stay in touch with my body, and makes the process of “finding what works for you” so, so, much easier. My only complaint would be the symptom options (especially for your mood/menstrual cycle) are kind of limited. Somehow, I always feel like the one I want to log isn’t there. But all considered, that’s minimal for what I personally use the app for. This is the best cycle syncing app I’ve ever gotten, and I’ve stuck with it the longest. Bonus: the special deals they give you to get the pro version are great! ### 5/5 — Five stars! *2026-08-31, version 2.8.10* Highly recommend! Finally an app that gives tips to support you, your body and mental health. I use this app to work with my body and support it instead of fighting against it ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-08-28, version 2.8.10* It’s very accurate on predicting my period.free.and easy to use.three reasons why this is my go to period app!! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
