Introduction

There are plenty of period and fertility tracker apps available and it can be hard to find the best period tracker app for you.

A Tracker that Isn’t Sexist

While you’ll find an endless amount of period and fertility trackers for women you don’t often come across one that can be used by men.

You can go ahead and enter in all your details and then share it with your male partner so he knows when you may be going through your period and therefore when you may need that extra emotional support (or to be left alone).

Just as the developer promises this is a very uncomplicated approach to tracking. There is no such thing as entering moods, weight, temperatures, or other details. It’s strictly used to keep track of the days you have your period, how long your cycle is, and when your most fertile time of the month will be.

Once you enter in one cycle's worth of information it will plot your future cycles so you can take a look at when you’ll be having your period one month, two, or six from now.

I like that you can also use the app to remind you to take your pill at a specified time each day. When you take it you can turn the reminder off. Unfortunately this feature is only available in the full version which is $0.99.

If you purchase the reminder feature you'll also get reminders of when you period is set to start/end and what your fertile days are.

If you want to be able to share your information with your partner this feature is available for $1.99. Don't worry: any notes you may make in the app and your reminders won't be shared with your partner.

The user interface is wonderfully simple, clean, and quick to use. Entering in your cycle information couldn’t be easier and after it's done there is no guesswork left about when your cycle will start and end. This app isn’t about extra tools, features, and functions, so if you’re looking for that this is the wrong app for you.

Final Words

The Pocket Cycle app is a no-fuss way to track your cycle and share the information with your partner if you like. If you don’t need to be keeping track of many details and would just like to be able to view when your cycle will be taking place, this app will do the trick just fine.
