Life changing
This app along with my Tempdrop has been life changing. I get to see my body working in such a clear way. I’m growing to understand how it works, and I’m so grateful as I spent many years not knowing what to expect.

Wow wow wow!
If you're undecided about which fertility awareness app to get, stop right here and get this one! It's everything and more that a charter could want. So very customisable without any predictions or automatic coverlines, completely private, very user friendly, and sooo much more. The team behind this app is amazing too! Hands down the best charting app out there!

So much easier
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.

Mark your own interpretations to support your fertility-related goals.
Sympto-thermal fertility awareness-based methods (FABMs) that cross-check temperature trends with cervical fluid patterns can be highly effective for avoiding pregnancy with perfect use.
Temperature can be taken with a BBT thermometer placed under your tongue immediately upon waking.
If you have an irregular sleep schedule then you may like to consider the Tempdrop armband worn while sleeping.
Record each day a single waking / basal body temperature value in the Read Your Body app.
As ovulation approaches (the follicular phase), under the influence of the hormone estrogen, temperature sits at a lower level.
After ovulation (the luteal phase), under the influence of the hormone progesterone, temperature rises to and remains at a higher level.
Just before menstruation, as progesterone levels drop, temperature starts to fall.
Read Your Body has been designed by certified fertility awareness educators to support a wide range of temperature charting protocols.
