Pausely is the private menopause tracker built around the one thing other apps make impossible: logging a hot flash the moment it happens, in a single tap. ONE-TAP HOT FLASH LOGGING Hot flashes hit many times a day, at the worst times. Tap once to log each one, with the time captured automatically. See how many you have had today on a simple timeline, and watch the real pattern build, including how many strike at night. ALL 34 PERIMENOPAUSE SYMPTOMS From night sweats and brain fog to joint pain, anxiety, and the symptoms no one warns you about. Tap what you feel, set the severity, and Pausely quietly builds your picture over weeks. SEE YOUR PATTERN, READY FOR YOUR DOCTOR Clear trends over 30 and 90 days, and a doctor-visit summary that turns months of tracking into real data for your appointment instead of vague recollection. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT No account. No sign-up. No ads, no tracking, no cloud. Your symptoms are stored only on your device, and nothing is ever uploaded. Pausely is a tracking tool, not medical advice or a diagnosis. Talk to your doctor or a menopause specialist about treatment.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Pausely at none against Calova's shown. Pausely also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Calova's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs fortnightly). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
