Best App for BBT tracking?

[user1465770502]

DH and I have agreed to TTC in March - waiting to be eligible for OMP - I've given up smoking - am eating a healthy diet and have brought a BBT thermometer and folic acid as well as pregnacare conception vitamins (think I need the extra folic acid as I have a higher BMI)

I'm back to work tomorrow and so I want to get into a routine with taking temps and supplements - what else can I be doing in the next couple of months to prepare for TTC and also what app is best to track temps etc?

Feeling impatient to start now and feel like everyone around me is either pregnant or has recently had a baby...

Also have read lots on here about people trying SMEP would people recommend this?

I use natural cycles, but it’s paid for. A friend uses ovia and gets on with it. Good luck!

Thanks @MrsO28 - how long have you been using the app? What features does it have that made you choose it over the free ones? 🙂

Kindera is great and free

I’ve been using it about 8 months. I went for paid for as I was originally using as a natural contraception, and it was EU certified so that convinced DH it was safe 😂

Ovia is good as it allows you to track symptoms etc, on NaturalCycles, you just get a text box for anything other than LH tests, AF, DTD and PG test. I was just sold by the certification (and ‘free’ thermometer with a 12 month sign up)

I use three - I use fertility friend (free version) because I like the graph and comparison tool, and natural cycles (paid) and Ovia (free) as I find these are the best at predicting my irregular cycles.

Fertility friend is brilliant. I tried Ovia and Glow before sticking to FF.

Thank yo everyone for your advice - I'll have a play with the free ones listed and see if I can get what I want from them ❤️

I have ovuview, glow and Fertility Friend. I've signed up for paid version of Fertility Friend this week because I like the timing analyser OPK optimiser and fertility monitor. I like the information it gives, and that forums are available but not I'm your face. It also gives predicted due dates based on cycle dates. If you download it i think youll get 30 days full membership free.

Glow sends me daft notifications and is prone to a "Prediction altered! First fertile day is now peak fertile day, sorry!" Switches as soon as I log ewcm. Then pings forum updates at me. I don't really want updates from strangers thanks, and especially not stuff like "my BF asked if he can hang out with his friends.... was my text reply good?"

Ovuview is nice, lets you log all symptoms and charts them. No overlay feature, and tells me ovulation happened on last day of positive OPK, but a clear bbt chart and symptoms, marks predicted then identified ovulation dates

Thanks @ChristmasEnthusiast that's really helpful I'm so eager to do all I can in advance to be ready to TTC xx
