Read Your Body

This is a paid app. Wastes your time first then asks for money to continue.

I just switched over from using Flo (to track oral BBT) & Tempdrop a few weeks ago and I wish I did it years ago! The app is so detailed and easy to use. I LOVE so many of the features, especially that tempdrop integrates so beautifully with the app and you can import the temp with one simple tap each day, as well as being able to track both oral BBT and tempdrop in one chart too. I had some difficulties importing my data from Flo (their issue) which RYB team were AMAZING at resolving swiftly🙏

I've been using Read Your Body to track my cycles for several years now, and couldn't be happier. It's really the best app I could ask for for this use. It's very intuitive, and flexible, you can add as much information as you wish in various forms. It also synchronizes with Tempdrop for the basal temperature, so really great. and nothing is missing for me

this is so comprehensive!

I started a month ago and had already paid for the annual plan, now they've taken me out of my account and won't let me log back in without paying again, and when I select restore data, they say that they don't find any suscripción. They're thieves.

I don't understand why people like this app. It's way too cluttered and I can't figure out how to navigate it. There is data showing on my chart that says I have a cycle length of 365 days, but when I check the calendar, nothing has been entered to reflect this and I can't get rid of it. The icon for this app is also way too in your face. I would have liked something more subtle. I appreciate the privacy aspect of this app, but it's a clunky mess.

Amazing app! Using it for more than 2 years and it only gets better. Their customer service is great as well. Love that it has customization options to suit many different needs and preferences.

Requires a subscription after a short period of time. I thought maybe there was a free version so I took a lot of time to add all my data. Turns out it was a waste. I'm so tired of subscriptions. I've got two other apps that don't require money for the free versions that do the same sort of thing for me so I uninstalled.

Nothing is more private than this info, never use any other app, women's rights are no guarantee it's something we must continually fight for. Read Your Body is like your private notebook, but made easy where you don't have to draw everything every cycle. If you don't pay with money you pay with your data - so choose this app where you pay with money 🤗

Edit: Thank you to the developers for the response! I gave it another shot and am over the moon now. I actually prefer it to my old system. Lovely how the app opens to the charting info for the current day. Well done and I'll happily pay for it.

not a good useful app

I just lost more than a years worth of data because I had to switch phones. I did a normal data copy and transfer and when I went to log in the app said INACTIVE account, start fresh to continue!! I have used this account every day for a year. I tried the start fresh button anyway and nothing happens. is freezes. I will be switching to something else!

Best tracking app I've ever used, very detailed.

If you're looking to use this app, make sure you know all the weird lingo used in it and acronyms for concepts literally no one uses. The least that should be provided is an easy to access page that lists all these out which, by the way, is not included in their FAQ section. Not for users who are not well-informed on all menstrual and contraception related concepts and lingo. also you're forced to subscribe before being able to use the trial version. what a waste of time. 👎👎 👎

I've been using the app for a few days now and I'm really happy with it so far. The price in my opinion is pretty reasonable and you do get a 30-days trial first.

Excellent tracking ability and encryption for privacy

I am trying to cancel the subscription, but going into "Manage" in Subscriptions on Google Play only opens up the option to change or update payment method and add backup method. IF this is a way to stop people being able to cancel easily that is just WRONG behavior on behalf of the owners.

BACK UP YOUR DATA! Or make an account!! I've been using this app since 2020 & love it. Had it before they offered cloud backup. Unfortunately for me, since the app update (to a beautiful new look) the app refused to recognize that I had a subscription. After many attempts to get in, I restored to a uninstall/reinstall. Since I didn't have an "account" & the app didn't let me in to backup my last 6 months of cycles, I was forced to lose all that data. 😭 Still love the app. Just bummed out.

I tried this a while ago and forgot to leave a review. I think this app is great! I just can't afford the cost, but I truly believe it should be paid for. I found it through Mozilla's review of the privacy and security of women's health apps (go read it, esp if you live in the US). It's the ONLY menstruation app that truly cares about your privacy and doesn't collect your data to use or sell; its stored on your phone not some company's cloud system like every other app.

Excellent customer service & very useful app. Only fertility app I trust!

Indispensable

Not intuitive

Best charting app I've found, very intuitive and as complex as you'd like to make it. So much more accessible than tracking on paper.

I loved this app but the price increase is unreasonable. My price was being increased to 28.99

Why pay just to track your cycle this should not cost just because of how the App work wanted use but not if you have to pay first I don't mind making email account but subscription that seal the deal I don't think so I'm not gonna subscribe to an app I may not even like.

c'est une application à but non lucratif mais elle est payante! Je la désinstallé.

I have not used it but seeing the functions of the app it might be helpful so I decided to download it.

To be clear - most of my experience with this app has been great! Super user friendly, definitely the least intimidating cycle charting app out there. Sadly though, the dates are wrong? I feel like I was going crazy but looking through my Google calendar comparing to this I realized the app is a day ahead (says it's July 15th when it's July 14th). So not a huge thing but definitely threw me off!!

2nd Review - this is a smart, intuitive, and aesthetically pleasing app. Well worth paying for... 1st Review - I'm about to cry...I have sorted through about 10 of these types of apps today...all insane requests for age, subscriptions, and bold invasions of privacy. THIS app is so respectful and sensitive...even if I don't stick with it, I want people to know my VERY positive supportive experience getting started...and the subscription is reasonable and respectfully approached.

You have to subscribe to get into the actual app. It's a no for me

it totally meets my personal charting needs. everything can be changed individually. it can be used while being pregnant, on birthconfrol, postpartum and anything in between. thanks to you guys I was able to learn about diffrent fertility awareness-based methods (which are dabbled in with at school and my gynaecologist told me aren't a good idea in my twenties) I'm extremely grateful for that. idea for improvement: fluid section; two existing labels can't be changed (name, color, icon)

I love this app! Charting my cycle is quick and easy with RYB. It allows you to customize signs/symptoms to your liking and is easily accessible. I've found only 2 downfalls - 1) The app glitches from time to time and won't allow me to enter data into certain fields. When this happens, I restart the app and all is good. 2) You cannot delete specific cycles. When I started charting, my first cycle wasn't a full one. Being unable to delete it affects my overall stats, but it's nothing major.

Original app please install this application and try it .

Forgot my account with a PAID subscription!

Changed my whole relationship to my my cycle! I love understanding my body and being able to track my data in such a customizable way. This app is incredible and you can so clearly see the care and love that has been put into it.

The absolute best for charting! Read your body is highly customisable, user friendly and it works with all different methods of fertility awareness. It doesn't interpret data for you to come up with predictions, but it lets you take the reins. Highly recommend!

Update: the issue has been resolved! I just had to re-install the app and restart my phone. Original: I love this app! Can't imagine not using it tbh. I got a new phone though and now I'm having trouble with the app. How can I keep the app from logging out every time I close it? Is this an app issue or a phone setting issue?

I've really enjoyed using this app! Out of all the FAM apps, this has been the easiest to use for sure. The biggest change I wish the app would make, is adding custom reminders. Reminders would be soooo helpful in logging.

Good charting app. Will work with symptothermal methods and probably cervical mucus-only ones. Clear presentation, no frills; all self-interpreted.

Fajny interfejs i wygodne użytkowanie

affordable , simple to use and highly customisable. one important detail is that it doesn't allow to save backup on your phone, yet. hopefully that will be a feature in the future. the data save in their server is encrypted which is nice but not the best. still I think this app is worth it.

This is not Matthew. It's his wife. Lol. Read your body. It's the ONLY app I've ever found that doesn't say "I'm sorry you have an irregular cycle, this method may not work for you". It just let me track, and come to find out I do NOT have a long cycle, but rather a LONG cycle. It also allows me to track my mood, lh strips, fertility monitor, intimacy, take photos (for CM), and even has a partner notification for when I'd like to say something without saying something. It's the best.

The best charting app I have used thus far! Highly recommend it.

Infelizmente o aplicativo não tem uma versão gratuíta, apenas paga, mas parece ser ótimo

This app is free for 30 days then $1.99 a month. Just fyi

I switched over from Natural Cycles so I could practice the Sensiplan and Billings methods(for comparison reasons) and it's a great app that will accommodate multiple methods at the same time. A suggestion would be to allow for drop down text options in the custom fields. I don't like having to type out different acronyms when they're already a little difficult to remember. Would also appreciate a temperature integration from an app other than Tempdrop.

This app has the features needed for cycle tracking and FAM, but it is so extremely slow that it's very frustrating and difficult to actually use.

I loved this app for the personalization and user-friendly format. I use it daily. Since the update, I can't personalize symptoms, it auto inserts symptoms from last Wednesday to this Wednesday. The data is less simple to interpret now. I teach fertility awareness and I love this app!! It's the one I reccomend. But changes aren't always upgrades.

Functions well enough, easy and accessible for the most part but it's missing a key feature. Unless it's hidden away somewhere, this app doesn't allow you to visibly mark when to expect your next period. It just tracks it as it happens. It shows how long your cycle is, yes, but no indicator appears to tell you 'your period will start again in x days' etc. It's a good app, don't get me wrong, but realising this key function isn't there means I'm probably gonna uninstall and find an alternative.

I don't love the interface. It was really difficult to track mood and symptoms for my period/ pregnancies. I couldn't use the app when I went overseas and although I still have 4 months left I now can't sign in our reset my password. I did however love that I could customise certain things and I was able to become pregnant and then detetmine I was pregnant by reading the data on the chart. I just wish I could use the app again 🤷‍♀️

No free version for this app, not very competitive

NOT A FREE APP -- Yet another family planning app charging monthly subscription.

I have to pay for the app in order to use it

Super helpful!

A great and beautiful app to help track my cycle, practice Natural Family Planning, and work with my PCOS! Very detail oriented and customizable and inclusive. I use a combination of Creighton and Marquette methods while taking progesterone to help regulate my cycles and this app keeps track of it all.

Love the app. it's better to start with a few things and customize more along the way as you get to know the app better.

I've lost all my data after the upgrade. The app didn't recognize my purchase and everything was erased. A hole year of annotations lost. It's awful. And my name is not "Maria" as the developer called me.

I use Fertility Awareness Method & this app has literally everything I need. It even backs up my old charts so I dont have to worry about not losing them. Its so helpful to have all my cycle info in one place!

Updated review: the problem I had was fixed with an update. Before I updated the app though, support helped me to create an account so I can back up my data and not lose it. Thanks so much for all of your help!

Hate the new update. I'm sure I can get used to the less appealing layout over time, but it loads SOOOOO slowly. It's like it's processing way too much information. I used to be able to open the app quickly, enter my symptoms for the day and check old charts for comparison with a click. It laggs excessively now. I know the developers read this so please, PLEASE fix this asap because it's extremely painful and making me consider switching 🥺

Don't trust this application. They will lose all your data. I had been tracking important data... It's all gone. So heartbreaking. TTC is hard enough already.

I already bought the app a few months ago, but now it wants me to purchase it again even though I paid for a year subscription. I can't even get on to look at my past data. Please help me fix this and I will change my review.

I loved it until last week when they updated the look. How I hate when they do it. Yes I will get used to it but was the look change necessary? ....Just a rant I guess. App works ok. Loads slowly through cycles.

The new update includes photo export too! I love it. LOVE IT. This app has made it so easy to track while on the go and share with healthcare professionals when needed. RYB support actually took user requests and included it in the update. Their customer service is phenomenal.

Great app....HATE the update

De longe o melhor! Já tentei vários aplicativos de FAM, mas o Read Your Body é completo, eficiente e tem tudo o que eu preciso. E a política de privacidade deles é impecável, já que os meus dados ficam somente comigo.

Great app if you want to practice FAM , it doesnt predict anything , no algorithms

Great app. Responds fast, contains many features and is super adaptable to my own needs. I can even add my own custom stuff and then decide to take some or all of it into account. You can see the results as a chart, or a calendar or even cycle or the stats overview. I love this and for €15 à year, it's worth it for me ten times over.

Essential for FAM practicers. So grateful this app exists. I do not pay for any apps except this one. The only thing i would change, is the ability to put it in dark mode/go with phone system preferences for light and dark. Sometimes it's early in the morning when i use it and the bright white background hurts my eyes. I've used Flo, Clue, and a few others that I'm forgetting the namrs of, but they really don't come close. Also, the Tempdrop integration option just puts it in another league.

This app is perfect for recording your cycle, especially if you practice the symptothermic method and don't like recording on paper. I've been using it for 2 years now.

While I don't mind pay for an app, I will NEVER pay for an app that is listed for free in the app store but once you open it you can't move past the initial screen unless you pay a monthly or yearly subscription fee. Not only is it misleading, but it speaks volumes about the kind of developer/s behind the app. Again, I don't care if it is $0.99 or $99, it's the principal.

I just started using the app. It's not my favorite but trying to look at other period apps. I wish was an easier way to edit my period dates. I have my marked on others apps and would like to add those. But with how the app is for adding in old months info it makes it time consuming and alot of effort. Also I wish there was a profile part of the app that I would add in like symptoms from my period. I know that has helped me alot in determining when I will start.

I would give this app a 5/5, but I can no longer login! I am subscribed for the second year now and just had my baby. Tried to login and it says this account doesn't exist even though I'm still paying for the app. I don't know who to reach out to to fix this.

Everything in one place, great UI

You know what I would enjoy? The option to navigate RYB as a parent, with the ability to chart separate cycles under different profiles. There is an awkward stage for young girls who are sometimes too young to be responsible enough to chart, but mothers could help form this habit while also helping their daughters be prepared. There doesn't seem to be an app that covers this yet. Hint hint 😉 *UPDATE - OOPS! Yes this deserves 5 stars; I don't know how I made that mistake. Personal use =♥️

I love love love this app for tracking my cycle

So good. Clear and easy to use. So grateful for this app

This app is horrible! You have to spend...what 37$ for the app! DO NOT DOWNLOAD THIS APP NO MATTER WHAT!

I love this app, been using for over a year. It's a bit disappointing though that you took away all that useful information and diagrams about how to "read your body" in each section. Now there's not much info and it just says to consult your chosen learning resource :/

I Highly recommend it! Simple to use while extremely adjustable and reliable.

I'm so impressed by this app. It's completely customizable to your NFP or FAM Method, meaning you only enter and see the data that you're tracking. If you're looking for an app that will try to predict when you're fertile based on the outdated rhythm method, this is not it. If you're looking for a convenient place to put your cycle data and see patterns, this app is absolutely perfect.

Just started doing FAM and this app has made it so much less intimidating. Love how customizable it is, and I find myself tracking way more things (lifestyle,mood, habits,etc) than I could with any other app! One request I do have is about the emoji selection. I can understand why it may be counterintuitive to include every single emoji, so what if there was a tab for "my emojis" or something like that so we could select extra emojis that we personally would like to use regularly? Thank you!

I've never been one to pay for an app, but this is the only one that's worth it to me. It seamlessly connects to my Temp Drop app and is very customizable.

It's great, I really like it. But it would be great if you could change the colours, I don't really like the blue/yellow combination. Thanks for the reply! It would also be great, if you could have colours in custom data like you have in fluid and sensation. It makes it clearer to see the pattern.

I absolutely love the customization features of this app. All of the features are *well* worth the yearly price. This app is suitable for all types of charting needs regardless of the fertility method. I have used TCOYF, Justisse, and Marquette with ease. The only suggestion I would make is an ability to add subscript numbers or numbers within hearts to determine the amount of sexual activity during the day. I wish I didn't need to add a seperate line for intimacy frequency.

If you are like me with no job and want to track you body, sadly this app is not for us. -sigh- time to keep looking...

Great app with tons of features which will support your journey no matter if it's to get pregnant or keep from getting pregnant... or simply just keeping in tune with your body. I especially love their structure which allows my information to remain private. I recently had to contact their support for a payment issue and they are super fabulous. They responded quickly and provided clear and detailed instructions to resolve. 10/10 stars. This is my app for life!

Idk why google play is making this a new review, but to read your body's response on pulling in fertility friend data.. I never said my issue was that it couldn't pull on data beyond temps. Just that I spent 3 hours trying to get it reformatted and still wasnt there. Fertility friend is the most popular app for a reason. And if you want to sway people to your app the onus shouldn't be on the user to spend a full day trying to get FF into RYB. You guys should figure out how to do it.

Customer support is great, and the app is wonderfully customizable. Takes a little getting used to at the beginning, but once you get it, I promise it is worth it!

Love this app! Have been using it for a while now. But this month after I logged my menstruation it didn't start a new cycle. So it didn't say day 1, it just carried on with day 28 and 29 and so on. Hopefully this will be sorted as I track what day of my cycle I am on the whole cycle :) thank you

Disappointing beginning. I was super excited to dld an app to track cycle AND respectful of privacy. Setting up the app, i realised that 1st i need to record my payment details to be able to benefit from the 30 days trial. The worst part is that my payment details need to be stored with my google account😏. Alternative solution, going to a store to buy a voucher to avoid surveillance capitalism. Then i will be able to use the app. I am disappointed.

I've spent the last few months trying all of the different apps that support FAM until I found this one! I've had this app for 2 days and I've already learnt so much about myself and my body! Thank you for making this incredible app ♥️

Unless you have a passion for scrolling, I don't know why you'd choose this app for tracking BBT. The graph is utterly unreadable and good luck trying to see where your temperature shift is. There are better options.

Great way to input your cycle info and make FAM simpler

The best app for charting!

Says in app purchase but only offered at 30 day trial and then you have to pay... only 3 dollars a month but it all adds up in the end. Uninstalled on the spot unfortunately.

Developer was quick to respond and provide a refund, so I have updated my review. I am an experienced FAM user returning to the method after 4 years for TTC again. For someone who does not use a smart thermometer, I did not find anything beneficial about this app over other free versions. Was no impressed with the app. Removed it from my phone before the 1 month trial was up, but still was charged the annual fee at the end of the month. Be careful downloading this app!

Just started tracking and had been using Kindara for two weeks. Downloaded RYB after reading about it and wow - it's excellent! So easy to use and has lots of helpful information on it for those new to FAM. Think I'll be sticking with this!

Fantastic! Over 4.5 years I've mlved between 3 different charting apps and this beats the other 2! TD compatible, nice visual for CF, placing your own cover line, easy to navigate, user chooser the temp rise and other data points have more variety. Worth the payment! Very glad so much care was put into this app!

Edit: Happy to update this from 3 to 5 stars! The RYB customer support team is awesome! They were quickly and kindly able to help me figure out an option for partner charting. 😊 Thank you so much RYB! Original Review: I think the app is beautiful and that the charts/options are really, really great. Rating is because I chart with my husband and am usually able to share a charting app/account on more than one device. (Cut for word count)

Just started using this app but I am already loving how simple and easy to use it is. Plus, it's very affordable.

Am giving 3 stars as I am still a new user. Will adjust my review as I get more acquainted with the app. Can I please request that you create a phone widget for the app where we can just get a summary of the day's info like, what cycle day you're on and how far before the start of your fertile window. (I know the app doesn't want to be predictive, but it would be nice to have the option of opting in or out of some predictive functions).

App is not free and description does not say that. It only says in app purchases.

Best I have used, before my last pregnancy I used an expensive one. This time I tried a few, this one exceeds all of them. Lots of functionality without being overwhelming. Really easy to edit and read your data. I have irregular cycles and previous miscarriages I don't want an app constantly making suggestions and predictions for me, I just want to be able to see my data and make my own conclusions so this is perfect for that. Would also be great for birth control too. Great app.

I do not support paying a fee per month. Immediately uninstalled it. I would pay a one time fee. But I'm not gonna get stuck with yet another subscription.

I'm completely satisfied with my RYB app and it perfectly meets my needs on charting my cycle following the Sensiplan method!

This app makes charting so much easier. I love that I can add my Tempdrop temp and the temp from my oral thermometer. I can switch views to see just one temp or both. Works great when you're still calibrating your Tempdrop. This app is better than Clue and Glo because it doesn't try to predict when you ovulate or when your period is coming. You can record it just like paper charting, which I prefer. Also seeing the visual chart makes seeing trends so much easier. Highly recommend this app!

I didn't think anything could get me to switch away from OvuView after years of using it, but Read Your Body has done it. I already had a TempDrop, and the data import was ridiculously simple - I thought for it to be that simple, there had to have been data loss, but everything was there! I do wish I could import my OvuView custom field history, but it's also kinda nice to have a clean slate. I like that I can use emojis to track things like mood, and customize which options do/don't show in the interface (contraception, etc). I think that's a really great way to make this work for people and all the different goals they have around tracking their body's patterns. The team has been really responsive to feedback and is obviously iterating on the app experience with frequent releases. I put in a feature suggestion and I was happy to get a response with realistic expectations around how long it would take for that feature to be added. Excellent work, folks!

Absolutely love this app 😍 one of the best fertility trackers out there

Love it! So easy to use and I love how much information I can record. Also love that there's no predictions!

So far, It has been a great experience! I'm connecting my tempdrop directly which makes everything super easy. On top of that you can costumize fields, add other body signs and ovulation results, etc.

The best available charting app for those who want to DIY. No matter what method you use, this app has an option for you. This is a major breakthrough for FAM instructors who need a good communication tool with clients. I can't recommend this app enough!

Love how this app gives you the option to customize you're entire chart and that our data is save.

Small learning curve but good overall. I think the user-friendliness is okay. I got this to accompany my tempdrop to learn more about my cycle and to transition to natural birth control after a decade of bad experiences with HBCs. Edit: thanks to the developer for a quick response on how to incorporate the journal function! I will update my review as necessary as I continue using the app through my 30d free trial.

Amazing app, I had some issues and contacted them. They helped all the way! The app is improving a lot. Keep doing an awesome job! I'll be supporting this forever 👏

I really enjoy the customizable options in this app. I like the fact that the directions for use are so clear and that the support team is so responsive. I like the fact there is no misleading predictive algorithm for ovulation. Please know that using this app with FAM requires learning outside the app wich is stated in the directions.

Have not been able to import from kindara. Tried submitting the file with a support ticket but the dropbox is also not working. Edit: great communication, helped me to upload my old data and now I'm good to go! Thanks so much for your help!

I have used multiple FABM apps that pair with my Temp Drop, and this is hands down the best one! I recently switched from Billings to Sympto-thermal, but I appreciate that I can utilize the strengths of each of the methods in this app. It is empowering how customizable this app is, and I highly recommend it for any woman wanting to learn more about her health and fertility!

I am beyond pleased with this app and as a Fertility Awareness Educator can't wait to integrate this into my practice with my clients!

Every FAM/NFP user's dream! Fully customizable, responsive support, and the promise of great new features for a long time to come. Worth the wait!

Syncs with tempdrop, that's a 5 star by itself.

Love this new app. You set your own options to track over time with emojis and numbers and things so you can track any health element you want. I add in exercise and alcohol and stuff, the options are endless. I'm a TempDrop user to measure BBT; a Kindara user switching over onto this appp (log health/cycle changes) AND BOTH IMPORTED INTO THIS WITH NO PROBLEMS! No losing past cycles you've tracked 😃😃😃 As someone in the data field, very impressed with easy import integration.

Love it! Perfect app for customizing your chart.

Fantastic!!! I've been waiting for this for what seems like forever! Certainly has not disappointed. Recommend to every female who wants to understand their cycle and become more in tune with their body.

Great app. Has different options that other fertility apps dont have. Love being able to customize and fit categories to my own specific needs. Awesome!

This app is honestly amazing it's everything i could ever want in a tracking app for life! I love the customization and being able to chart two Temps is so inavative. Im in love with this app i now only need one app and not 5 cause this is an all in one! Only thing is the app is so new right now there are some bugs that still need attention. However looking forward to future improvements and bug fixes!

Absolutely love this app, been waiting for it to launch and am not disappointed! So good that it syncs with tempdrop automatically, makes charting so much easier. And all the customised bits mean my chart is now really comprehensive. A must if you're a keen FAMmer!
