Circle

Your ring works on a schedule. Circle makes sure you never lose track of it. Circle is the reminder and cycle companion built specifically for the contraceptive vaginal ring (such as NuvaRing and its generics). Set your schedule once โ€” Circle tells you exactly when to insert your ring, when to remove it, and when your break week ends. No spreadsheets, no calendar math, no 3 a.m. doubt about whether you're still protected. WHY CIRCLE Unlike generic pill reminder apps, Circle understands how the ring actually works: 21 days in, 7 days out (or your own custom schedule, including continuous use). Every reminder, countdown, and insight is built around ring-week logic โ€” not adapted from a daily pill model. REMINDERS THAT DON'T LET YOU DOWN โ€ข Precise notifications for every ring event: insertion, removal, and break-week end โ€ข Optional critical alerts that break through Focus modes and silent mode โ€” because this one really matters โ€ข Smart follow-up nudges if you haven't confirmed an event yet โ€ข Time-zone and daylight-saving safe: your reminder fires at the right moment, wherever you are ALWAYS KNOW WHERE YOU STAND โ€ข Today screen with a live countdown to your next ring event โ€ข Clear protection status at a glance โ€” including guidance when a ring was out too long โ€ข Full cycle calendar showing ring weeks, break weeks, and upcoming events โ€ข Complete event history: every insertion and removal, logged in seconds UNDERSTAND YOUR BODY โ€ข Daily check-ins for bleeding, symptoms, and mood โ€ข Adherence insights: see how consistent your timing really is across cycles โ€ข Protection integrity tracking and reminder effectiveness stats โ€ข Bleeding pattern and symptom trends over time PRIVATE BY DESIGN โ€ข No account. No sign-up. No ads. โ€ข Your cycle data stays on your device โ€” it is never sold or shared โ€ข One simple Circle Pro plan unlocks everything; nothing held back BUILT FOR iOS Circle is designed natively for iPhone with a clean, calm interface, full Dynamic Type support, and notifications engineered to survive time-zone changes and daylight-saving shifts. CIRCLE PRO Circle offers auto-renewing subscriptions (monthly or yearly). Payment is charged to your Apple Account at confirmation of purchase. The subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel anytime in your Apple Account settings. IMPORTANT Circle is a reminder and tracking tool. It is not a contraceptive, does not provide medical advice, and does not replace guidance from your doctor or the instructions that come with your medication. Always follow your healthcare provider's advice. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://ringreminder.app/privacy
