Can’t see day number at the top
Best app for NFP!
Good for Creighton Model, not user friendly
The best!
User friendly
Wonderful App for Creighton Method Tracking
Glad there is an app
1. I wish that when viewing 6 or more cycles on my iPhone, it would be formatted better with the start of each cycle on a new line. It’s formatted correctly when viewing 3 months but not when viewing more than 3 months. Makes hard to read and share.
2. I wish that the number of days in each cycle would be indefinite, automatically numbered til the next cycle begins. Not a big deal. Just have to go back and edit the cycle once it’s over.
Good but could be better
Allow for longer cycles. For some that have irregular cycles, they can go for longer than 32 days. Either allow for a 35 day and 40 day, or try to get away from making people pick a cycle length at all. Consider instead a pop up box when someone enters an indicator that is considered a period day, asking them if they would like to start a new cycle. Or add it to the list of selections for each day.

Thank you for your review! I would like to point out that the length of the cycle can be modified from the "Edit Cycles" tab by swiping to the left on the cycle you want to modify and clicking "Edit". This functionality is depicted in the screenshots of the app on the app store. My wife mentioned something similar to me about your idea for starting a new cycle, and I will consider something like that in a future update.
Love this app
Share feature doesn’t work consistently
However, I tried to share via email with my NFP instructor and she didn’t get it. It did share via iMessage with my husband. This is a crucial feature hat should be fixed.
I understand the cycle length is arbitrary since you can override, but it would still be nice to be able to change it after initially setting up a new cycle. Plus, a cycle was longer than expected and I couldn’t add more days.
Overall, this is such a helpful app. Thank you for creating it!
Response from developer
Thank you for your review! I have not experienced the issue you mention with emailing the chart when emailing with my wife. As far as cycle length, the length of the cycle can be modified from the "Edit Cycles" tab by swiping to the left on the cycle you want to modify and clicking "Edit". This is depicted in the screenshots of the app on the app store.
Awesome!!
Great app and excellent support from the developer!
Thoughtful, terrific app for NFP Creighton
-Takes the guesswork out of stamps
-Dropdown options make charting so easy
-Option to share as HTML link (for instructor) or as file to load into same app on another’s (husband’s) iPhone if desired
Tips
-Whatever cycle length you indicate DOESN’T MATTER as it can be overwritten by future cycles
-Press UPDATE to save each day
I am so grateful for this excellent app.
Response from developer
Thank you for your review, I'm glad you are enjoying the app! I'd like to point out that in last update (2.1.3), I changed it so that in addition to the Update button, your info is saved when swiping left or right, or using the arrow buttons. I received numerous requests for that and am glad to finally have it included.
Lack collaborative sync
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback. There is currently no way for this to happen automatically, however what works well for me and my wife is that every so often I use the backup tab to export the database, and send that to my wife to import (also from the backup tab) into the app on her phone, which overwrites the data currently on her phone. If she wants, she can make changes and send it back to me to import. Please let me know if you have any other questions or comments (mschloapps@gmail.com).
Great except for print function
Not user friendly.
Having to select the length of cycle before the cycle even starts just doesn’t make sense.
Having to manually select “update” each day means my charting doesn’t always get saved if I forget to click that.
There should be some sort of calendar which shows my charting by day and allows me to click on the day I want to update, instead of having to awkwardly scroll through day by day to update or see a previous day. It’s not easy to access the days I want to chart or previously charted.
I really wanted an app to be able to replace paper charting, and I’m extremely disappointed that this app, which is about the only creighton nfp app I can find, isn’t worth the time.
Response from developer
Sorry you are having these issues. Responses to your comments are as follows: The cycle length is sort of arbitrary, in that a new cycle can be started on any day, so the number of days you pick doesn't really matter except for viewing the chart, as longer cycles will wrap to the next line when viewing. Also, the length of the cycle can be altered after the fact as well from the "Edit Cycles" tab. I chose to manually select update (as opposed to saving whenever you swipe) so that you wouldn't accidentally save something you didn't want by swiping to the next day. I have received feedback about this previously and am considering changing this in a future update. Under the "View/Share" tab, if you select the number of cycles you want to view, and click the "View" button, this shows you the chart like you would see it on the paper chart, and you can click and edit any day from that page. If you have any further questions or issues, please email me at mschloapps@gmail.com
No option to delete or change the length of a cycle once created
nevertheless I had an issue with it recently when I went on to have an unusually long cycle. As you need to determine the lenght of your cycle at the beginning I couldn’t find an option to change this once I reached my usual length... Am I just missing something? Or is this option not available? Also can’t see how to delete a cycle in the app...
Can’t get the website running on any of my pcs, something about not supporting a common ssl?
Day Count glitches a lot
Response from developer
Sorry you are having this issue. What I think may be happening is that if you try to enter a day count before you enter an indicator it will just reset that field back to blank. I will look into fixing this on a future update. If you have any other questions please email me at mschloapps@gmail.com.
Finally!
Response from developer
Thank you for your comment! I can be reached at mschloapps@gmail.com with any comments or questions.
Love this app, but one minor fix...
The last update said that the length of a cycle can be edited if needed. Would it be possible for this to happen?
Thanks so much for helping NFP couples with this app!
Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback! The number of days in the cycle is sort of arbitrary, because you can create a new cycle on any day, you just cant have the same start date for multiple cycles. So even if you are unsure of how long it will be, you can create a new cycle when necessary. The app does not rely on a new cycle beginning only after the previous one ended. I am however thinking about changing how this is done in a future update to make it easier to start a new cycle straight from the editing screen to hopefully alleviate some of this confusion, and will remove the minimum of 28 days. Please let me know if I can help you with anything else. mschloapps@gmail.com
