Obie: Fertility, cycle tracker 12+

I wanted to like this app as the predicted dates were spot on but the logging of information isnt enough. For instance logging your cervix position, it doesn’t give you the ability to log that it’s high but firm. The app automatically assumes because it’s high that it’s soft. It also told me that I didn’t ovulate this cycle but I logged a positive ovulation result.

Thanks for your feedback. As this is the first release of our app, hearing about your experience is incredibly important; it helps us understand how we can keep improving Obie. We’re taking your comments into consideration as we continue to make updates, add features, and create content on an ongoing basis. As always, our goal is to provide a helpful, valuable experience for users like you.

TLDR; atheistically pleasing, but some features are not available to users with irregular cycles. Needs more customization for pcos users who may need to adjust bleeding factors for the algorithm to work better.

It’s definitely not for people with irregular cycles. The locked bleeding feature is wildly frustrating when I need to edit a cycle. I have PCOS and don’t ovulate regularly, and often have highly erratic cycles. I’ve gone longer than 150 days without a period once.

Atheistically it’s a GORGEOUS app, and is definitely geared towards those who like the minimalistic feel. I really like that it’s not overwhelming with info and that the design is very sleek, so I do continue to use it, even though it’s absolutely NOT user friendly for those with pcos or irregular cycles. I do hope that as I continue to track my cycles it will eventually become a little more “predictive” for my cycle irregularities.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We need valuable input like yours to continually improve, and we really appreciate user comments, both positive and negative. We are continuing to improve Obie and have so much more to bring you including tracking for irregular cycles. And we’re working to make our logging easier to use and update.

Before Obie I was using Clue to track my period but Clue wasn’t accurate so I had to rely on tracking my mittelschmerz pain on my own and then doing the math. I put in some basic info into Obie and immediately saw it predict the exact date of my last period. It has been the most spot-on app I’ve had, I was actually surprised an app could be this accurate. I will be using it from now on to track my menstrual cycle.

Obie aims to predict your cycle, ovulation, and fertile window as precisely as possible and always remain medically accurate. We’re happy you’re pleased with the results.
