Tracking periods manually is a cumbersome task, and there’s a high possibility of losing track of your cycle. If you still happen to use pen and paper for period tracking, it’s time you switch to an app. Apart from tracking your monthly cycle, they record flow heaviness and ovulation and assist you in flagging any potential health problems that may occur. Though not completely accurate, the collective data presented by these apps can be extremely beneficial. Read ahead to find out the top period-tracking apps for both Android and iOS.
Flo is a massively popular period-tracking app that offers a minimal interface along with a plethora of features. It allows you to log more than 70 symptoms and activities to provide you with an expansive AI-based overview of your health. On top of that, Flo works closely with more than 80 health experts to better understand users’ health.
Besides the daily insights, the app provides a detailed monthly health report. The app offers essential features in the free version, but there’s a $10 monthly charge if you require fertility assistance, educational resources, videos, or a more personalized experience. Flo also has a secret chat feature that lets you chat with all users on the platform. A lot of users on Flo use the feature to discuss intimate topics. The feature is bundled with the free version, too.
Clue has got you covered if you’re on the lookout for a gender-neutral period-tracking app. It uses gender-inclusive language and provides resources that cater to the LGBTQIA community as well. Another good aspect of Clue is its customizability, so you can choose what to log and what not to. As per Clue, you can predict your period cycle up to three months in advance, which is on par with most apps on offer. There’s also an option for pregnancy tracking if required.
Glow is a data-driven period-tracking app that presents all of your data in the form of graphs and PDFs, and they can be printed or shared, too. It tracks your period, ovulation, sexual activity, and body basal temperature. Your partner can access these details if you add them to the app. With time, Glow understands your cycle and makes smarter predictions. It’s a great app for family planning and people undergoing fertility treatment.
Ovia has a host of fertility-tracking features, making it a popular choice if you’re trying to get pregnant. Based on factors such as ovulation, cervical position, and basal body temperature, it provides you with a daily fertility score (possibility of pregnancy on that particular day). However, it’s not suggested to use this as a measure for birth control. Although pregnancy-focused, you can track your flow when required. Despite these great features, Ovia is absolutely free of cost. (Ovia has a sister app that helps track your baby’s growth, too.)
Magic Girl is one of the few period-tracking apps designed specifically for teens. The app has beautiful aesthetics layered with cartoon characters and emoji. It also has a collection of informative videos discussing first periods, feminine hygiene products, birth control, and more. Magic Girl tracks your periods and provides tips relevant to your cycle. It has a chat feature that lets you interact with other teens on the app and a diary feature to note your daily experience.
The developers of Glow have another amazing app called Eve. Unlike its sister app, Eve focuses on sexual health and flow tracking. Through the app, one can record sexual encounters, sex drive, moods, period symptoms, and more. Using your existing period data, it predicts the upcoming one. Eve also brings a handy forecast feature that predicts common period symptoms that one might experience each day. Plus, the app includes daily quizzes and a community where one can ask questions, share stories, and interact.
Natural Cycles is the first FDA-approved birth-control app. In order to predict the fertility window, the app requires daily body temperature readings in the morning with a basal thermometer, period cycle details, PMS symptoms, etc. Based on these details, the app states if the day is non-fertile (Green signal) or fertile (Red signal). While the app is great for planning or preventing fertility, you cannot solely rely on it.
The Spot On Period Tracker comes from Planned Parenthood, a nonprofit organization providing sexual health care in the United States and globally. Like other apps on our list, Spot On includes all the necessary period-tracking features. Additionally, the app can track your use of contraceptives (pill, patch, ring, shot, etc.), send reminders, and offer tips on birth control methods. Additionally, Spot On also provides articles from Planned Parenthood experts.

Are you tired of paying for streaming services you never watch just to get a phone plan feature you actually want? T-Mobile has good news for you! The carrier is rolling out new plans, called T-Mix, in early November to replace its old Experience lineup with a build-your-own perks system called Picks.
The benefits you choose vary from streaming and gaming to food delivery, AI, satellite service, and phone discounts. But if you are satisfied with your existing plan, you can keep it.
Merely days after the iPhone Duo hit the shelves, images of broken screens on the phone started popping up across social media. Until now, it’s been unclear what’s causing the line of defective pixels that appears vertically along the crease, as well as horizontally, on the phone’s inner display.
Apple has finally acknowledged the issue, which has shown up on iPhone Duo units owned by customers as well as demo units in stores. In a statement shared with Bloomberg, Apple says that not all iPhone Duo units are affected and that those that are tend to show the display fault early on. The company added that users who experience problems with their iPhone Duo display should contact AppleCare for a replacement.
Not long ago, Apple treated independent repair like an act of outright hostility. The Cupertino giant locked down parts with serial-number pairing, while repair tools remained firmly out of reach of anyone outside its authorized repair network. More importantly, the company waged a legal and lobbying battle against right-to-repair legislation.
I've covered enough of these fights over the years to know what a shift looks like. That's why what happened in October 2026 genuinely caught me off guard. The day the iPhone Duo went on sale, what may be the most mechanically complex iPhone to date, Apple pulled off a surprising about-face. It published teardown-style repair manuals for a handful of major components.
