Natural Cycles is more than a period tracker. Most other fertility tracking apps assume your cycle is 28 days long, even though 87% of women have cycle lengths that dont fit into the 28 day pattern... We understand that birth control is not a one-size-fits-all. Your cycle is unique to you! Our algorithm uses personalized temperature data to confirm your ovulation, reducing the risk of you being assigned an incorrect fertile day. Unlike period trackers, the NC° app allows you to identify your fertility status daily, so you can prevent pregnancy or plan for it with greater precision.

From birth control to planning pregnancy and every cycle in between – Natural Cycles is there for you with each stage of your fertility journey. Still not sure? Download the app and test out our Demo Mode. The app supports syncing with Apple Health.

Pros and cons of Natural Cycles: Birth Control app for iPhone and iPad

Natural Cycles: Birth Control app good for

Easy to use and after four months all is good. Its really empowering understanding my own reproductive system and fertility status day to day. Only down side is I wish it would work in offline mode. Also I would like to see all sex, with or without protection, hearts show up on the chart.
I discontinued use of the pill after 3 years and started using Natural Cycles instead. I was amazed at how much more healthy I felt not being on the pill. My husband and I are extremely pleased with Natural Cycles ease of use and accuracy.
Gave up birth control after 12 years. Best decision ever! I wanted to be more natural and stopped putting all those nasty hormones in my body. App is super easy to use. It took about a month for it to figure out my cycle. I strongly suggest switching to all natural way!!
I love this app so much. Its so easy to use and I feel so much better being of the pill. Thank you!
I wish I had had the idea to develop this app and its algorithm. It is very interesting to combine temperature measuring with the historic of your past cycles, so together they combine for more precision fertile and non fertile days. The app sometimes is a little bit slow, but it is working and calculating with lots of care, without risking many green days in the beginning, as it still doesnt know my body and cycle with accuracy. I super recommend.
This app changed my relationship with my body, for the best :-) But...when you dont pay, you have not anymore access to your own historic. The app is just blocked with YOUR data. I suggest to lock the possibility to add new data, but allow us to see how our cycles were previously.

Some bad moments

NaturalCycles is really THE best alternative for natural birth control and pregnancy prevention/planning!!! I’ve been using it for almost a year now as birth control, and couldn’t be happier about having found an alternative which doesn’t involve taking hormones or surgical procedures! Unlike other apps on the market, NC isn’t just an app where you keep track yourself of your period, temperature, etc, but it determines using advanced biostatistical methods when you’re safe and can’t get pregnant (or the reverse if that’s what you’re after :) ) I highly recommend it to any woman who’s looking for a natural alternative!!!
NaturalCycles is a fantastic way of keeping track of your fertility status using your temperature. The design is simple and makes using it a breeze. In comparing it to other FAM methods, it is remarkably consistent on predicting your status. The calendar view makes it easy to visualize and be on top of your cycles. I am happy to have this app to help me in preventing pregnancy without the use of hormones or surgeries.
To do anything you have to become a member and pay 60 dollars for I year.
This birth control is easy, affordable, and it works. I have not had to compromise my values, beliefs or my body. My friends constantly complain about their irrational mood swings on pills and I tell them how my life has simply continued. My husband likes being apart of the process and knowing that when we want to have a baby it will be easy to switch from "prevent" to "plan". I love how safe and healthy Natural Cycles is! I dont have to worry about human error that I would probably make if family planning on my own. Natural Cycles really works!
This app is easy to use and gives me real assurance. You do have to take your temperature each morning, but if youre transition off of birth control, you will be used to the daily habit. I will continue using it with confidence.
Ovulation made simple. Easy to use and intelligent. The only negative, and this may be user error. I never know when it wants make to take an ovulation test.
