Flo Cycle & Period Tracker Positive Reviews

Not a fan of new formatI used to love flo. I’ve been using the app since my junior year of high school (I’m now a senior in college). I appreciate how I’ve been able to track my period through the years, as it’s been enormously helpful to my overall health, well-being, and awareness of my body. That being said, I have really struggled with the new updates that flo has undergone. Not only has the app become significantly less user-friendly, but the constant push to “go premium” has really negatively impacted my experience. I understand why they have a premium option, and I respect that it is there, but what I don’t respect is how I’m constantly being mislead in order to be trapped into signing up for a premium subscription. I find it really irresponsible that women who don’t want to pay for this app, will be given insights about their menstrual health, only to find out that they can’t have access to the information behave they don’t have an account! I used the chat feature a few times before, and it’ll leave me responding to chats for about 5 minutes, and right before they give me an answer about my health, they say I need to subscribe! It’s honestly cruel that an app meant to help women feel more secure about their health, is constantly misleading them like this, or trying to buy their desire for basic health info! Most of which can be googled, btw. I’ve really loved using flo, but am honestly considering shifting gears if things don’t change soon..MallalalalalalalalalaVersion: 6.11

Above just a period appI used this app for a couple years to track my period and symptoms every month. (Like most). And I found it very useful to see symptoms that I would get routinely every month, especially since I wasn’t always exactly on schedule. At the time I always had my period every month and from my knowledge I thought it was normal the cycle lengths I had. But after two years Flo popped up with a notification letting me know “Your symptoms match up with people who have PCOS and thought was aren’t drs. We think you should ask or bring it up to your OBGYN.” My phone died right after and when I would try to look it up later I constantly ran in to pms. Acouple years pass and I out of the blood skip my period for three months with no pregnancy but period pains with no blood. I call my obgyn and they tell me. “We think you have pcos, we are gonna do blood work to make sure but we are pretty certain” blood work came back and I was diagnosed with polycystic ovary syndrome. Which was a relief and yet scary all at the same time. But it made me think back to when the Flo app sent me that message years prior, telling me to chat with my dr. I really appreciate this app and the developers for recognizing that pcos is a thing and people can go through life not every knowing or being diagnosed. So I told my dr about how my period tracker on my phone recommended I chat with them about it. So if you had any thoughts on why this app is so useful and above the rest. This is why it meant so much to me!.Amanda_bubbleVersion: 8.5

Deleting the AppGave a 5 star so this will be seen. I have been using this app for well over 5 years, it used to be so great and user friendly. And I really appreciated being able to track my cycle and have insight as to what I was going through, all the way up to when I got pregnant early last year with my daughter. & then the app didn’t really have much to offer compared to other apps as far as tracking my pregnancy. I redownloaded the app once I started having periods again postpartum and every so many minutes within using the app, it prompts me to purchase the full subscription to be able to use even basic features that used to be available to everyone without purchase. In addition, when it prompts you to make a purchase, it literally forces you to agree and continue into the purchase by not allowing an exit button or anything to back out of the ad until you’re having to deny the purchase when it tries to ask for a payment method. It’s ridiculous that they are so money hungry that they now feel the need to try to force you into a purchase. It will also offer insight on your cycle but then pop up with an ad that you need to make a purchase to even see the insight. Other than being able to enter when you have your period and look back on the calendar, it is now a pointless app, I can literally use the calendar on my phone to do the same thing..Genuine_feedback!Version: 9.61.0

It’s helped me so muchI love this app. I’ve had it ever since I’ve started my period, and it’s amazing. It’s accurate and even tho sometimes I’m a little late or early I don’t mind it because it gives me a general time and I’m not guessing like my other peers. I also could be getting more accurate if I logged in my symptoms everyday, something that IVE SEEN make it extremely accurate. Flo gives you articles after you’ve logged symptoms as well to try and help you, something I adore. These articles have been great to explore and for me to see what’s going on with my body. Flo’s community is amazing too!! All the girls are extremely respectful and helpful and is only trying to make another person feel more comfortable. They have a community part where you can anonymously chat with other girls, and you get notifications on the app when someone replies, something that’s an added feature, and I love it. Something else, that’s an amazing part of Flo, is that they have a lock on the app too, if you choose. A lot of friends like to go on my phone, and I would rather not let them see my period tracker. Flo sends reminders when your period is on your way too! And if you have a certain goal like getting pregnant, Flo with gladly help. (Something I haven’t explored quite yet based on my age.) There are indeed small cons, like some of the articles you have to get Flo Premium, and all the courses, you just pay, but those are only optional things, and I’m just fine without them. So, if you’re wondering, get Flo!.JessiewadVersion: 4.40

Love Like Jesus Does.Jesus loves you guys, thank you so much for helping me with my period. 🩸💕 God loves you so much and He saved me. I actually used to blame God for my period, but now I thankfully know that it’s not because of Him and anything that’s bad isn’t from Jesus, who is God. Anything good or important that comes from periods is because of Jesus, for He is the source of everything good. Even though it’s our faults that we allowed sin into the world, which allowed bad things and evil into the world too. Jesus still allows good things to come our way from those bad things, and He does with periods too. I wish I could give all you ladies like a years worth of the best pads and heating pads for cramps for your period, but just know that it’s gonna be okay and you’re all strong and admiral for what your body does to prepare for you future baby. I’m pretty sure there was a woman in the Bible who was bleeding for 12 years, and since she put her faith in Jesus and that even just touching His robe would heal her, He did. And she was blessed just everyone else is. I know that we can be annoyed or even jealous that guys don’t have to go through this, but if you think about it. That just means that we’re stronger in another way and our bodies do something incredible. I’m not trying to downplay the pain, I just wanna let you guys see the good from periods and how those good things are from the Lord Jesus Christ. God bless you! ✝️🙏🏼📖.💗🍊🤓Version: 9.64.0

Love this appThis is my first time actually using a ‘tracking app’ and it was so easy for me as usually it’s just “too much” and I end up deleting it. I’ve been able to track my periods for a year now & have discovered not only do I have an extremely irregular period, (lasting 45+ days between cycles) which brought me into my OB-GYN, which helped me get to the root of the issue which I never even knew about because I never tracked my periods prior. It’s great, it tracks not only your flow; how heavy, but your MOODS & SYMPTOMS. Example: sad, mood swings, self-critical..etc. And than symptoms as ‘cramping, bloating, fatigue, backache, acne, etc..’ ~ I love that I can cross reference which moods I experience the most & it’s helped me so much. I do not LOVE the “pay more to get better health care” part, as this app would be perfect if they didn’t ask you to pay to track your own period.. that’s where the 4 stars came in. Other than that, I love this app. It’s great for even a daughter who just got her period & to teach her to keep track and log moods.. I WISH I had this as a teen! It’s great. Highly recommended, I just wish they didn’t ask you to pay for the “premium” content which I think we should all have access to since you can probably Google most of it, and so many of us love the app.. I’m sure if you took that out, people would probably be more willing to pay a smaller fee of something just because you removed the really expensive one that none of us can afford, hence why we bought the free version 🤷‍♀️ but I still love the app!!!!!.NikkixxfitnessVersion: 9.6.1

Good, but bugsI really like this app! It helped me track my cycles and ovulation when I was trying to get pregnant, and then was super easy to swap over when I was finally pregnant! And the pregnancy side of things have been so good!!! I love opening it every day to find my new tips and advice for the day. It also helps me track my water, which I love. But, the new updates it has gone through have been sort of weird. It always prompts me to input my weight to track it, but that feature is gone! There is nowhere for me to input my weight anymore. Also, the chat feature is gone! I liked the “chat” at the beginning of every week even though you can only respond with pre written responses, it was very informative and useful. One week of pregnancy was incorrect (said I was week 8 even though I moved on to week 9) and it didn’t work because it knew something was wrong, and now I haven’t seen it since. Lastly, I loved all the of “stories” that it gave me during first trimester. A week to talk about exercise, a week for nutrition, a week for working while pregnant, etc. but as soon as second trimester hit, there’s nothing! I really looked forward to reading it everyday, but now there’s just a lack of information. I begin to wonder what I’m getting by paying “premium” because it sort of stopped all of the major things it was helping me with. But I loved it, so I’m mostly writing this review to let the creators know what they need to fix and bring back!!.Jessand!Version: 9.26.0

Download itThis app is seriously awesome. I was just looking for a basic tracker as I transitioned off my birth control and it’s turned out to be so much more. Not only does it let me track almost everything I need to, but I’ve actually learned so much. I can’t believe that at age 28 with a masters degree, there was still so much I didn’t know about how my own body worked. Between the health insights and secret chats it’s been pretty enlightening. This is a great space for talking about things that typically aren’t discussed in our society. I hadn’t planned on upgrading but took advantage of a great sale they were running around New Years and it’s been totally worth it. I highly recommend. Update: been using this for over a year now and still like it though I don’t use all the features as much as I did. My main criticism is that the monthly “Flo assistant” is super annoying and not really helpful. First of all I really dislike the “texting/ chat” format. I’m sure this is good for teens but I would rather the info just be displayed to me as a list, graph, etc. Its also very repetitive and generally not helpful (“you tend to log happy on weekends!”). I’d much rather know how many days in a row before my period I log a certain symptom, but it doesn’t tell you that, and if you want to use it at all you have to sit though the whole annoying “chat.” Finally, it would be great it we could create our own symptoms to log. I know there are certain things I experience on a monthly basis but there’s no way for me to track them..Luk 4567Version: 5.8.2

Pressure to purchaseUpdate/edit: To the Development team: PLEASE READ ALL OF THE RECENT REVIEWS. Your users don't need to be told "the premium subscription pays for us to develop the app"...like we don't know how that works ??? We do. It seems the consensus is that EVERYONE would 100% rather see ads instead of being harassed to buy stupid premium. Guess what ? YOU STILL MAKE MONEY USING ADS. Stop making excuses for your greed, it's so insulting to your loyal users. Also, just stop with your copy&paste response to every single one of these reviews saying the same thing. It's just so rude and makes you look horribly uncaring and greedy. Original review: I would give five stars as I have been using this app for over five years now and it's extremely accurate and easy to use. but, I am getting very annoyed at how every time I open the app now before I can even look at anything it pops up pressuring me to buy the app to get all the features (using the cover of celebrating how many years I've used it; I do not care). I do not have the money for this and wish I could use the app's basic features without being bothered and feeling pressured to buy something I cannot afford right now. When I open the app and it does this, I unfortunately just force quit it and forget it. I know they want to keep the app ad-free, but honestly I'd much rather see ads at the bottom of the page that I can ignore while using the app freely and unbothered. Maybe consider giving users an option to opt into ads because they really don't give me an issue..GratefulkelsVersion: 9.23.0

FLOW!Well hello there, if you are reading this then I welcome you!( I may have rated this five stars, however it is anything but. This is the most money seeking app I have ever used, EVER. Not only are they turning womens health into a buy to win scheme, they are literally selling your data to meta at the same time! The worst part of this all is Flo was suggested to so many young girls by their doctors to help them track their periods so they could start looking for signs of abnormalities if their cycle. And yet you have to pay to even know if your period is bad. Are we serious? And they are selling that same data to meta for “advertising”? You are money hungry and in all honesty not even made for women. Isn’t it ironic how an app made for women was founded by men? Yea and they still try to push their “large women team!” YAY!!! Sorry but I’m not going to trust an app that is sharing peoples highly sensitive health data, like period details, sexual activity, and location! ESPECIALLY with third-party companies like Google and Meta! AND without explicit consent, despite promising privacy? No thank you! For all the people who have read this far and wondering what else to use please try to use a notebook and track it yourself if you are worried about more your data being used in stuff you never consented to, OR if you really enjoy using an app as it’s better and more helpful for you download Stardust!.Candrae07Version: 9.94.0

The #1 complaint you’ve hadIt really is sad that the premium feature is even necessary for this type of thing. I feel the best way to make money would be by maybe adding ads, or maybe people could buy a premium where it just customizes everything. One feature I feel should not be paid for, is the thing where you can talk to a professional about your health issues, or trying to find a specific article to read for a major problem you’ve been having, and to see how everyone else has dealt with it. As a woman and tons of other woman who use flo, feel like crap about this. Flo wasn’t just about tracking, it was about relating with all the anonymous people about basic woman problems that are to uncomfortable to talk about in real life. It really saddens me you have done this, especially when the “AI message” or whatever, says something along the lines of “your period is off” or “there could be medical problems, and then let that “AI” continue the conversation, and then wait until the end to tell you to buy premium. I just feel you have many ways around “keeping the basics free”, at least give some things back to us and make more things for people to buy, that are unrelated to something that should automatically be on your app to help women. I know it’s been two years of people saying this on the reviews so this probably won’t reach far, I’m just hoping in some way it’ll be better😕.At 12 xeVersion: 9.37.0

Great Tracking ToolI’ve used Flo for years and have loved it! It’s always helped me with tracking, and with their updates over time I’ve come to understand my cycle and symptoms better. I occasionally appreciate the different articles etc about symptoms and ovulation and have learned quite a bit. However, this most recent update I’m not a fan of. When going to log symptoms, it’s visually messy. It’s visually overwhelming and everything is smaller. Also, they took away product logging! This is incredibly frustrating as this is how I base how heavy my flow is. I’m able to go back and see, historically, how light or heavy I think my current flow is based on this point in previous cycles etc. And now there’s just an option for clots instead of size of clots. I like this but also dislike. Before, you only got the clot option with pads logged, and then it would ask the size. Now, you can log clots without pads, but no size option. I do like that there appears to be more options so symptoms, which I’ve always wished for, but it’s just a very busy screen now. Overall, I’ll continue to use the app because there’s no better one by far. I pay I believe $50 or $60 annually for the premium and will continue to. This app is doing great things for women and providing incredible education at fractions of the price you would pay professionally, and is FAR more reliable and reputable than simply Googling something. I just hope they make some more tweaks and bring back product logging!.LikikikikikljagsvjroruhsbksduyVersion: 9.26.0

ImprovementsI have an IUD and sometimes skip bleeding. I still get all the other things like I’m a little more emotional and boobs hurt, etc. but I just don’t bleed so I can’t really log a “period”. I wish we could add “missed period, negative pregnancy” since whenever I don’t log a period the app assumes I’m pregnant and keeps sending me articles about why my period may be “late” and won’t show me my ovulation days and future period days until a log a period. So even if I don’t have one I still have to log a fake one so the app continues letting me track things. Also, I wish there was an option for logging hives or other allergic reactions. The last 4 months everytime I’m on my period, the first 2-3 days I get super bad hives. After looking into it, it seems it could be linked to hormone allergy, potentially because with my hormonal IUD there is too much hormones in my body while on my period. I’m going to my OB/GYN to discuss this later this month but I wish we could log symptoms like that to see if it lines up with our cycle to open that conversation with our doctors. It took me 4 months of misery before I connected the dots and realized it was always during my period. Finally, speaking of the IUD I also wish it allowed us to log IUD as our birth control since it’s not a daily birth control. So if we take it out and our cycle changes as a result, the app can see that it’s potentially a result of the IUD removal and can help us understand our new cycle patterns once the IUD is removed, if that makes sense. Overall though I love this app and have used it for 2 years now and it’s been great..Britt0812Version: 9.64.0

Great— must haveI started using this around age 25-26 and am now in my early 30s. The best thing we can do is track our cycles and symptoms, identify trends as there are so many similar traits and unexpected conditions that may arise. This has been helpful as a tool between myself and my OBGYN. I began having irregular periods or being late around age 29, which could have been stress and likely was stress. It persisted intermittently and I learned at age 30 I had developed a uterine polyp. When my OBGYN and PCM(primary care provider/manager) asked about my cycles I could reference the app. To emphasize the significance of tracking you cycles,I had all normal paps, and was on time for my paps, in fact I got them more often since I had been using the IUD in my early 20s. The only irregularities were my heavier periods, spotting, and irregular cycles and of course the pain from the uterine polyp. It was located inside my uterus and only truly visible with a pelvic ultrasound. Observing how my cycles changed and taking notes of it myself on the app also reiterated what I was experiencing to me, forcing me to be more alert and aware of changes in my cycle. The app also shared informative articles for me to be cognizant of and to bring up with my provider. I think it is a great tool and plan to continue using it long-term . Thank you Flo!! This app has been a fundamental component to my health journey..Awillia83Version: 9.75.1

Best menstruation app on the marketI’ve tried about five different cycle tracking apps, but Flo was by far the best. From tracking daily emotion to exercise type, sex drive to period symptoms, and even letting you factor in stress and illness, this app covers almost every cycle note you’d want to make. The updated predictions are highly useful for people with irregular cycles like me; it not only lines up symptoms from day 1 forward but also from the end of your last cycle backward, so you learn what symptoms and feelings correlate with each part of your cycle: your period, the first week after, ovulation, and the week leading up to your next flow. The insight sections are also helpful; I like the small blurbs of health advice personalized to your daily input. Its account-stored data is super helpful should something happen to your phone/device, since all you need to do is download the app on a different device and log back in to access all of your previous input. However, I wish there was an option to add customized tracking buttons; while the app covers a large range of common symptoms, I liked differentiating between migraines and sinus headaches or the common cold versus fever or allergies. Especially allergies; I’ve always wondered if mine get more severe based on where I am in my cycle. The app probably shouldn’t allow family sharing, either; if it passcode-locks, it means the information is probably private. This doesn’t impede my rating, though, because I love the app even without these features; these would just force me to break the system and give it six stars..Annalise OpheliaVersion: 4.10.4

Good app, but needs some additionsI used to use this app before I had my baby, and eventually switched over to a free one. I used this app during my pregnancy. I think the pregnancy version could use some more variety in symptoms, but was otherwise good. My main complaint is when I had my baby, the app had no information or changes for the postpartum period. It didn’t take into consideration that I’m breastfeeding or anything. I’d like to see an app that not only considers how your cycle changes during breastfeeding, but also pushes out more articles and short reads that can help a new or experienced mom with a young baby. My last complaint is the normal cycle tracking is also lacking in symptoms etc. Why can’t I put in that I’m having a heavy cycle AND clots? Why can’t I put in that my skin is more oily, but I’m not having acne? There is a notes portion, but I think these things deserve their own button too. And in the exercise portion, your options are very limited. I personally train Brazilian jiu jitsu and none of the exercise categories fit into that kind of thing. It’s otherwise a good app, and helps a lot with informing you about your reproductive health and whatnot. They also gave me an awesome deal for a year long membership, so I’m not complaining. Just a couple things that I think could really make this app stand out from the rest- mostly just adding more symptoms..RosetheAltoVersion: 9.45.1

Phenomenal/Effective/Accurate/OutstandingThis app has changed my world. It is always spot on with my predicted period and ovulation dates. It gives you handy notifications that alert you to hormone changes within the cycle and what to expect. The insights and knowledge I have gained from this app is more than I’ve learned throughout my young life. You can track PMS symptoms, sexual activity, weight and mood changes, water intake (can also set handy reminders to drink more water!). I have yet to use, but the app can also be used as a pregnancy & ovulation tracker and takes on a different format when pregnant or trying to conceive! I love that this app is completely free to use and that all the necessary features and insights are also FREE. Theres no need for the paid version and I hope they keep it that way. Overall, its the most useful app I have on my phone. It completely changes the game in *convenient* women’s reproductive knowledge/health. Never go on vacation unprepared again!! ✨ One suggestion for improvement ✨ I occasionally forget to mark my period on its start date and sometimes end up guessing when i go back to the app to log it. If the app knows your period is “late” (from not logging its start), it should send a notification asking “is your period late, or have you just forgot to log?”. It would be great to get a notification on day 1 and 2 of your period being “late” and also a screen that prompted the question when you open the app. That way, the app doesn't automatically mark your period as being late, and I remember to log the correct start date. That added feature/notification would absolutely knock this app out of the park!.StruckmonicaVersion: 6.11

Love the app, dislike the subscription service it’s becomeI’ve had this app for a long time, before subscription was added to it. Though I still very much use and love the app, I feel like it’s slowly becoming a more money centered user experience. Some areas, that used to be free and accessible to users, like articles, have moved to premium and though I understand premium subscription is needed to support a more advanced technology and understanding of ones cycle, there should at least be have a few articles on there free to users, that way they can at least gather some understanding of their health, those articles were helpful for me as a user and seeing it not be there anymore is disappointing. Chats are helpful but they aren’t truth based and can mislead users into thinking this is correct information. There should be a balance on cost effectiveness while also not driving the users away from the app, by forcing a subscription, this makes the app extremely limiting to use for the user and isolates them from a lot of needed information. Yes tracking cycle is useful, adding symptoms is useful but there’s nothing to it now, not like before. I think Flo can at least provide a couple articles a day for free users and still offer subscription to those that want advanced features. It doesn’t all have to be premium, not everyone can afford a subscription, especially younger users who are just starting. There should be a way where both parties win without forcing everyone into the subscription route..Vally94Version: 5.6

Really love*Updated review* So I didn’t know I already wrote a review for Flo, but I just wanted to come back and say that I really do love this app. I’ve been using it for a few years now (I think since either 2018 or 2019) and it’s only gotten better over the years. Before I downloaded this app, I used to track my period in my notes app. That got confusing and too hard so I literally just typed “period tracker” into my App Store and Flo came up! I downloaded it just so I could use an actual tracker instead of my notes app and honestly, I’m very glad I got this one. I love how the updates actually benefit me instead of them just being to fix bugs and stuff like that. For example, an update a little bit ago was that they start sending daily “forecasts” about what to expect that day and what you might experience and it’s really cool bc sometimes they actually happen and I’m not left confused or worried! I heard how these kinds of apps are used to steal your info and stuff like that but I’ve never had that happen to me (I don’t have any personal info except for my email and any info I input about my cycle but nothing I’m scared to get leaked). I know people don’t really read these reviews but I know they help the company. If you want something simple to just track your cycle, I truly recommend using Flo. It’s super simple and easy to use. I also recommend if you are a mother and have a daughter or if you are younger and are just starting your period, this is a perfect app to use to start tracking. It’s a very great tracker to use, it’s super simple and I love how easy it is to log everything in. Plus I love how you can go months in advance and get an idea of what your cycle will look like..Yasmeen021Version: 9.0

Love this period tracking app - could be improved thoughI’ve been using this app since Aug/Sept of 2023. I like it for the most part but I think there are some opportunities for improvement. First, I am using this app for period tracking only, I am not trying to conceive. I informed the app of this when I signed up and I assumed it would then tailor my content based on this information, but quickly realized it doesn’t and is heavily focused on users that are actively trying to conceive. I indicated that I have PCOS (which is why I need to track my period) and again, assumed it would customize my content based on this information. After completing my assessment, it indicated that I might have PCOS… I know. I told you that when I signed up? I do not recommend this app for the infertility community as I can see it triggering a lot of folks that can’t conceive naturally. Although the pregnancy notifications don’t necessarily trigger me, they annoy me because I am simply using and paying for the app to track my period. I wish the list of symptom trackers were more expansive (re: how are you feeling?). The assistant and educational content has been SO helpful. Lots of great things about this app but I wish it was more customizable to me, my goals and that I could turn off the constant pregnancy tracking content and indicators. Great start, but plenty of opportunities for improvement..HuliejuntVersion: 9.66.1

This app is better than cosmopolitan!It’s all about women, it’s like a giant FB but for women.. relationships, tracking your body’s health, support for females in any aspect of their life they may not even know they need yet.. I wouldn’t normally pay for an app like this but once I got into it, there is so much more to it.. it talks about everything from pregnancies, coping with loss of your baby still born, how to rebuild & strengthen ur relationship with your partner. Dr.’s advice on how to fix past hurts, habits & hang ups with your partner to move forward in a healthy manner & truly let go of the past. & Sooo much more than I thought it was going to be in just an app. It’s more of a giant woman support system for anything personal that only other females can relate with you, no matter what the topic may be. I definitely recommend it especially if you don’t have any or little support system in life.. Cheers! If you’ve read this review to the end, than it’s clear that there is something in this app for you. Thank you to those who created such an amazing job on this app. I recently found out I was pregnant while on birth/Control & definitely helped reading other people that could relate to me as it’s obviously a huge shock for both my kids, hubby & myself.. my kids are both 10 + so I’ve totally forgotten about “all the things that I should except while expecting “ & how to make my husband understand it’s not me that’s acting crazy it’s the hormones.. they have advice for that in there as well! Advice on cheating or being cheated on.. to so much more. It’s worth the fee. Thank you again for a great way for women to support each other together from around the world...Im00notimpressedVersion: 6.13

I used to love this app way moreI got this app when I was a freshman in high school as they do not teach much about female cycles or anatomy. When I first got it, I found tons of useful information on the app and it was all free and amazing. I learned the different parts of the cycle and it helped me manage my symptoms better as well as understanding what’s going on with my body. While I understand that programs like these need funding in order to run, I find there is no need to bait people into paying for a subscription. Like the chat feature. It pops up prompting you to interact for a bit and making you think it’s going to tell you some useful information but then it tries to make you pay before you can access it. There shouldn’t be as much push for people to pay. It’s irritating especially for people who can’t afford more payments like myself. I would much rather there be a pop up when you open the app asking if you want to pay for premium rather than being tricked into thinking I’m going to be getting something useful for free. Also I am a strong believer that all the info on this app should be taught to girls in school or be free public access but google is not a reliable source and this app has loads to offer but for a price. It’s already bad enough that women don’t get taught anything about their own bodies and it’s a “luxury” to access this information..Kylie12366Version: 8.7.1

Love it!This app is super useful for tracking periods, and has given me mostly accurate predictions so far! it’s been off by a day or two a couple times when i first started using it because it wasn’t adjusted to my cycle yet, but since then i haven’t had any issues. i love the insights where it gives info about my period and the different changes that come along with a period, and i especially love that you can comment anonymously on posts and get help from and give help to the community. by far, my favorite thing about the Flo app is that you can have it give you reminders to drink water, take meds, and weigh yourself if that is something that you’re concerned about! the reminders are super helpful for me as my meds are for adhd, so i need a reminder so i actually remember to take them lol! the only thing that i would adjust is that my water bottle has metric markings, but i live in america, so i have to convert the metric to ounces to track my water because the only way to use metric for water is to switch the entire app over to metric. this isn’t a huge deal because google is a pretty good converter but it’s just something that i’ve noticed. overall, this is a great app and i’ve recommended it to friends and family, and now i’m recommending it to you!.Ricecake2003Version: 4.9.0

It’s nice but...So I used this app for my period And it was great up until my period change and I came on a week early which was perfect for my weekend away because we were planning to get pregnant and my ovulation date was set for a specific day. Well I was on my period a day or two longer so I figured it would probably change my ovulation date. Well my trip was set to be at least about 2 to 3 weeks away and I kept checking the app to make sure and to see if my ovulation date was going to change well it didn’t change it stay the same and make sure that I refresh my app just in case and it stayed the same. Now the day I get to my destinations for my trip is my ovulation day that was on the app that’s what we were depending on. Three days later I go on the app to mark the fact that we made love and the ovulation date changed to the day before I arrived on my trip. Immediately I was upset because it seems as though we may have missed the ovulation day due to the fact that the app didn’t update until after my ovulation date that was set originally. So I deleted the app because of that. It’s very upsetting when you’re trying to get pregnant and your ovulation date just seems to change along with your fertile days changes I just think that that is something that they need to look into I no longer want to use this app..Naughty nixonVersion: 4.23

Use the Health App insteadIf you don’t want to pay for extremely helpful tips that should be accessible to everyone, then don’t even bother with this app. It always reals you in with “oh you have this symptom?” Or “You want to learn more of this common health problem for women?” and then it tells you “you can find out more if you give us money!” all of this is again under the guise of “we have experts now” like how does that justifying keeping vital information from what could be teens who can’t pay these subscriptions!? Give us adds, give us half of the info even, but don’t say “we can help, for a price” because it’s very distasteful. The reason why I say to use the Health App instead, it’s no different from the free version of Flo, yet the Health App does “recommend” Flo for some reason. If everyone was willing to pay then they wouldn’t be searching for free apps, and like I said it’s a bit unreasonable to think everyone will be willing and able to pay for important health information. It tracks your period, has almost all the same symptoms listed, flow choices too, and the free Flo version is almost a carbon copy of the Health app. Only the health app doesn’t have those “discussion” which don’t add much anyways, just a bunch of inexperienced women hoping to get something off these discussions that the Flo keeps keeping from them with a paywall, and it’s more sad than helpful. If you still want to use the Flo app, then do so, it looks nicer than the Health App, and these discussions could give you helpful info despite the paywall..LittlecrownmermaidVersion: 6.2

I have important suggestions.I am a nonbinary person who gets periods. so of course i wanted to get a period tracker app, right? it looks useful and the secret chats are cool! unfortunately, the developers/curators/people in charge of the content don't seem to care or know about a good chunk of their consumers: transgender people. i have met so many trans guys on this app, who feel dysphoria and excluded because everything on the app is so heavily feminine-centric and aimed towards girls, only making people like me feel worse that we get periods. don't get me wrong i'm all for girls meeting other girls and talking about girls stuff, but you have to realize NOT EVERYBODY WHO USES THIS APP IS A GIRL. of course not everybody on the app loves the idea that there are boys and nonbinary people using the app, in fact i have met quite a few transphobic ladies myself. however, if they don't like a portion of the app they don't need to use it. what i'm asking you to do is be more inclusive and just remember that periods are not inherently feminine, or at least that it makes quite a few of us flo users feel really bad when periods are portrayed as strictly feminine. maybe add some secret chats for trans* guys and nonbinary* people, or don't use phrases like "girls like you". i'm begging you, please do your part as a period app to end not only the stigma around periods, but also the femininity. please include very real, very valid people who have the same struggles as a girl, they just aren't one..CondandevVersion: 4.62

It’s gotten on my nervesI got Flo about a year ago and I loved it. I had been tracking my periods on a calendar before and let’s just say that wasn’t the most convenient method. Flo was great for the first few months, I didn’t really mind them trying to get me to buy premium cause I understand that’s how they keep the app going and the free version was working fine for me. But eventually it got to the point where it felt like I was being tricked into buying premium, I would use the chat thing just to see what it had to say and about 5 minutes in it would tell me that in order for me to see what it’s opinion was, I had to purchase premium. I would much rather them come out and say it instead of wasting my time. Another problem that has been occurring recently is the “daily forecasts.” It’s a once a day notification that tells you something like “you might notice cramps today. What else to expect? Tap to see👉.” But guess what? When you tap on it it take you to this survey where it asks you to select which symptoms you have at the moment, then you click to go to the next page and bam. It’s saying you have to pay for premium. I am sick of the daily notifications, 1) they’re never ever accurate, 2) it’s like they’re just copy and pasting random period symptoms and feelings into the blank and sending it out. All I want is to be notified when my period is coming. That’s literally it. If someone picks the free option, maybe the developer should stop trying to trick us into buying premium, from reading other reviews I’m not the only one with a problem with it. Sure put an ad for it up when you first open the app, but stop trying to trick us..Mockingjay24Version: 9.15.1

Rare: Excellent App AND Customer ServiceI love Flo, the premium features are worth the price, it has so much useful content I’ve never used a tracker app like it! To all the people who are complaining about it being pay to access simply need to go download any one of the dime a dozen, free, simplistic period/pregnancy trackers since that’s what they actually want. Flo is so much more. The extra course in awakening/taking control of your desire (or a name something along those lines) was incredibly helpful and insightful, especially for someone not knowing where to start. The little q&a message boards, articles, live sessions, etc were also great for more inexperienced ladies to get solid info plus dispel some myths about women’s sexuality and body insecurities which I would have loved to have as younger person. That’s not even mentioning the insanely insightful tracker part itself! Then, to top it off, the customer service is excellent which is so unusual to have one or the other let alone both. I had a misunderstanding about the subs/billing and they cleared it up with absolutely no problem at all. The creators of Flo are brilliant and genuinely doing a service for us ladies interested in more than finding out when our period starts,.ImmaWintersCVersion: 9.57.0

Definitely the best period app.After I got my first period I used the same app for years to track it. It never predicted my period right. For the longest time I just figured I was super irregular as many girls are when they start there period, but eventually I realized It said I was consistently late by approximately the same number of days every cycle. I just dealt with it for awhile. When I finally decided to check for a better period tracking app I found Flo. This app is SO MUCH BETTER!! It usually predicts my period pretty accurately, sometimes spot on. When my cycle shifts it always makes adjustments and often becomes more accurate. I also love that it doesn’t mark your period late until A certain number of days after your cycle was supposed to start (I think 5, which is the “official” number of days that make a period considered late. It doesn’t just mark it late when your period doesn’t start the day it was predicted to. I was especially impressed when I missed a period after my wisdom tooth surgery and when I logged my next period the predictions continued to be accurate immediately after. It seems like the developers did a great job on the actual software as well as put lots of thought, research, and expertise into it. It’s a great app!!.Fairysparkles6Version: 4.59

Only some features are useful, predictions poor qualityFlo is a decent way for me to track basal temperature and symptoms throughout my cycle, but I’ve found its cycle predictions to be inaccurate. I appreciate that it collects and graphs patterns of my body in a way I can see over time. However, the app consistently thinks my fertile days are at the end of my cycle, and predicts my period many days before it should start. I’ve logged 5 months of data, including period start dates and ovulation time, but this has not yet affected the predictions. Luckily I’m 33 and have had a consistent 27-29 day cycle for years (and three pregnancies), so I know these predictions are inaccurate and can make my own calculations. It is frustrating though to have to look at the calendar Flo provides and know that it’s all wrong, and have to do the math in my head every time. Isn’t that what the app is supposed to do, at the most basic level? It is also frustrating to be fed articles about why my period is “late,” when it isn’t late at all. It’s unnerving, even though I know better. The somewhat condescending tone of the articles in the app, along with the poor timing of their appearance, is the most bothersome part of the user interface. It would be helpful if there was a way to override the algorithm to make your own cycle calendar if needed..Lllww999Version: 9.47

Currently On a Free TrialI’ve had Flo in the past and loved it. I didn’t have a phone for a year so I just recently got the app again and noticed a lot of changes, including that some features are only available through a payment. The payment is only around 14$ for the entire year. I don’t think that’s so bad but if it’s out of budget I understand. The features on the free trial are pretty awesome so far, it’s like having access to a gynecologist because the information you give about your period has so much feedback. It’s really surprising what the app tracks and the amount of feedback you get about symptoms, tips / tools, workout ideas, food recommendations, yoga, meditation, and self- assurance. I wanted to take the time to write a review because I was really hesitant to redownload the app with the reviews talking about payments but I’m glad I did and it appreciating the free trial so far. If you’re unsure try the 1 month free trial and see how you like it. Bonus for the awesome private community conversations that are available to everyone, so that you’re able to anonymously speak with other women/ girls on the app and freely ask questions or help respond to others. It’s just really awesome. I appreciate the app.Milia GVersion: 5.1

Mostly good & helpful, but too much monetizationI love this app for tracking my period. As many other people said and I agree, the app is pretty accurate when predicting period start dates, ovulation dates, etc. It has been super helpful for me to track my period on this app because I can recognize consistent and non consistent patterns in my period. Whenever there are changes with my period, the app calculates that in and new predictions are still just as accurate. However, the only problem with this app is the constant push for the “premium subscription.” I get that many apps have that and it’s a part of making money, and I have no problem with the features that are specifically for premium members only. I personally am fine with just the core period tracking aspect of the app and that’s it. But everyday it offers the premium subscription when I open the app which can be annoying. I also hate getting a notification on my phone telling me “you may have tender breasts today, see why.” Especially since I’ve never had that symptom. But they push that notification to push an article that is for premium subscribers only. Other than the annoying monetization techniques they use, the app is really good and it has been super helpful to me..Cierra ReevesVersion: 8.3

Amazing but needs a touch.Don't get me wrong, Flo is amazing and you'll never use another app after you download this but it could use a few touches. The one idea I have isn't really important but if you want to have more fun with the app you should also have the choice of using your own photo for a background picture. Doing this would make it a little more fun along with being able to choose the color of the circles or bubbles. Also, it would be cool if people could make their own articles for everyone to read but make a separate column you can click on, incase viewers don't want to read other people's. And lastly, the articles usually talk about tampons. Not everyone wears them including me. It would be great if you could tell everyone how they work and if it hurts. I personally am really sensitive about "down there" and it would be great to know what it's like. Or even talk more about pads. Right now I read things I can on the internet and see how to insert them and everything. But I rly think sticking something up there is really nasty. Again just my opinion. But overall this game is really good. If it was just a little more fun and fit for everyone I would be giving it 5 stars. But hopefully something I said can come true.

Pretty goodIt’s a great app, it lets you track your feelings, your weight, symptoms etc. Also, it’s quite accurate and it lets you log any day as your period if it does come unexpectedly. The only problem I have is when you add your age, you must be 13 or older to log your period. And it irritates me as I’m 11 and many girls my age and even younger get their period at such a young age. Anyways, overall this app is great for tracking your periods and cycle.

10/10 but chat bot is annoyingI absolutely love Flo. I’ve been using it for years! It’s easy to navigate and log anything I need. My ONLY complaint is the chat pop ups when I first open the app. The bot can be very useful to chat with sometimes, but I wish I could open it on my own terms or have it pop up in a little bubble in a corner that I could choose to open or just go right to logging whatever I want to log. Otherwise it’s a great app! I’ve used both the free and paid versions and both are absolutely wonderful!.SydneyK95Version: 9.94.0

It’s okay but annoyingWay too many pop ups and constant badgering with articles and prompts. Constantly need to clear notifications within the app because every input I make prompts a bunch of pop up boxes and “info” and “chats”. It’s incredibly annoying. I’d like to be able to use the actual tracking app separately from all the other features so that people who don’t want to be constantly attacked with info about why cramps exist every time they make an input can use it the way they want to. The tracking itself is great and really helpful but even then, it keeps saying it’s trying to find patterns with my symptoms and doesn’t really give me anything despite me inputting a lot of info. Please make this app less annoying and more friendly to people who only want to use it explicitly for tracking..HahshsizbalabsVersion: 9.105.0

Flo Cycle & Period Tracker Negative Reviews

Too much for too littleI downloaded Flo when I was a sophomore in high school (now a sophomore in college) and I really enjoyed the app. Back then, the calendar of the app and it’s prediction capabilities were most appealing to me. All of the added perks that came along with Flo such as tracking your symptoms and the available informational articles were something that I enjoyed greatly. There were even little surveys that you could take that I enjoyed doing in my free time! Now, it seems that the creators of the app care more for those who upgrade to the premium version than those who use it for free. While it is expected to have some in app purchases that accompany programs such as these, it is very disheartening to see that you can access virtually nothing without subscribing. While I do still only use the app as a way to track the regularity of my period, I feel that I would be inclined to use it more often if I knew there were more things that I could access that were free. I also find it particularly annoying when I am using the automated messaging feature about something I am curious about with my cycle, I’m led on to believe I am going to get some answers. Instead I am given the go-around and can’t access the information without being pressured in to subscribing. I really enjoyed this app when I first downloaded it, but I am now disappointed in the fact that there is visually nothing that can be accessed unless you subscribe :/.Kennaliz122Version: 8.7.1

Started great, now about to deleteI’ve used this app on different phones for years. I love that it stores your data and can give pretty accurate predictions on ovulating and menstruating. It can notify you when you’re about to start either which was so helpful. Within the past couple years they started adding more insights, articles, etc. which were sometimes helpful but I never used them heavily. With the most recent updates they’ve started to make these extras available to only premium users which is fine, but I now find myself using it less and less. The kicker that’s got me about ready to delete is that every day it gives notifications about goofy stuff “find out more about your hormones” “what you might be feeling before ovulation.” I’ve gone through every setting and there is no way to turn it off. I’ll be showing something on my phone to someone and get a notification about “tips to keep your vagina healthy” and it’s embarrassing. The only way to get it to stop is to turn off notifications for the whole app through my phone settings, but then I don’t get notifications for when my period is coming or when I’m ovulating so it defeats the whole purpose of the app!! I just wanted a simple tracker, not all this extra bs. I noticed the iPhone Health app that comes preloaded on the iPhone has a menstruation tracker with the same features, predictions, and upcoming period notifications. I’ll be switching to that. Disappointing to see a helpful app become so demanding & useless..Lizzybb4everVersion: 5.3

Done after 5 yearsI’ve used Flo consistently for about 5 years now and have always considered it a valuable tool for tracking and assessing my health. Within the last couple years the constant push to pay for a premium subscription has worn on me. I understand the need for a company to promote a paid service, but the constant pop-ups every time the app is opened have become a big hindrance. No more taking a free moment to quick log a symptom before I forget, not without some frustration at least. The final straw for me came last week. I opened the app to log a symptom and a message popped up: “We’ve noticed some symptoms that may indicate a health condition”. I’ve never received a message like this before, so when prompted to start a chat discussing the issue I of course did. I went through a couple precursor messages with a chatbot, and read through a general disclaimer about medical advice. When I tried to proceed after this point I was told I would have to upgrade to the premium service to continue the conversation. For it to be implied that something was wrong with my health but I couldn’t find out what unless I paid for that information left a bad taste in my mouth that I haven’t gotten over. I’ve started the process of moving my data over to a new app. As time has gone on I feel the point of Flo has become less about health tracking and more about getting money. Your menstrual health isn’t something to be profited off of, especially when you’re being fear mongered into it..Lvcth701Version: 9.66.1

No longer user friendlyI’ve been using this app for years and years and when they updated the app they really try pushing its users to buy the premium package. Everything used to be FREE. Every single one of these apps are greedy and want to force people to pay for things that shouldn’t need to be paid for in the first place—especially when, again, EVERYTHING in the app was FREE at one point. Apps can still make money using annoying ads. Flo is persistent on trying to make their users waste their money. And the prices are ridiculous. This was my go-to app whenever I would track my cycle, and get helpful health information. This app doesn’t provide anything at all anymore. Its disappointing what this app has come to. Premium should give people the option to make customizations and what not. Not prevent its users from getting necessary information. Anyone that recommends any other app the doesn’t charge its users to track their cycles please let me know! Update: Flo is using bots to write fake reviews please don’t fall for that. This app USED TO BE AMAZING years ago. It’s no longer helpful, unless if all you want to do is track your periods and get nothing else out of it. Don’t ever waste your money on an app. The Flo Team just makes excuses for why they push premium so hard on to their users. It’s sad. Just use pop up ads on go on with your day. There is no reason at all to be charging users for information THAT USED TO BE FREE. We all miss the old app bring it back..I'mYourLightVersion: 9.41

Woman’s health needs to be improvedIt’s already a struggle to get women’s reproductive health information nowadays especially with all the protesting at the planet, parenthood or mothers, who just don’t want to take you, but on top of this, you have to pay for information like this. If you need help there should at least be some free stuff in here but I’ve been using this for about a month and there really wasn’t much it tracks. My period really pretty OK, so I’m not complaining about that i’m complaining about how I can’t really get help because I don’t have money and I get it. This is sort of an app for older woman or women who have money in their 20s but teenagers also need help too and I want to learn about why I’m spotting and why I’m feeling this way and why am I hormones acting this way but I can’t because I need money, I just feel like even with the doctors that they are paying to help women is of course wonderful, but what about people who don’t have money we also need help especially teenagers since they’re barely starting to figure this stuff out and some of us may not have parents to tell us stuff like this, and I speak from the stand of someone who doesn’t have a parent who can tell me about this I just feel like there needs to be more help for women who can’t afford it that are older and for teenagers who just want to learn about this without having to be constantly bombarded by this $40 year plan..AsialopezVersion: 9.45.1

Good For Keeping Track of Period Dates OnlyI’ve been using the Flo app since 2017 to track my period and of all the apps of its kind it’s always been mainly reliable and accurate. I also enjoy the option of tracking and recording my period symptoms. Years ago Flo was very educational and would offer quick articles or chats related to the symptoms you’d log so that if you wanted to know more about how to combat those symptoms or what causes them you could find out. Now it seems as if the only way to do anything beyond tracking the dates of your period and logging symptoms you have to subscribe to the premium membership. This would be fine if the app didn’t have articles (“You logged bloating, this simple tip may help”) that told you after the first slide “Unlock Premium to continue reading.” Like others have mentioned even the “chat” with the AI misleads you into thinking you will get information by having you answer questions for two minutes before telling you to unlock premium for this “benefit.” Aside from needing premium to do basically anything on the app I wish there was an option to check off that you skipped a period or two by skipping your placebo week of birth control pills. For a few months I used my birth control to skip my period all together but there was mo way to notate that on the app so Flo to this day thinks I had an irregular cycle where I was “late” for 94 days 🤦🏻‍♀️.Summer BreezyyVersion: 9.0

Extra features only available with premiumI originally downloaded this app to track my period and my symptoms. I do still like it for that, but I also really loved when more features were added such as giving helpful bits of info about the whole cycle. This info wasn’t always that helpful for me because most of it I knew already, but I do think it’s helpful for younger people. I didn’t learn much about the menstruation cycle in school, and I just can’t imagine much has changed. It was also helpful that they gave you tips seemingly based on the symptoms you plugged in. However today I went to log my symptoms and noticed they added in stories on why we get cramps, etc., but they are all only available to premium users. And when I went to the screen that used to have helpful articles, mostly all of the information is locked for premium users. This is all information that should be provided for free. Now kids are still going to have to wade through inaccurate information on the internet because apps like this are charging for the most basic information. I understand that you need money to survive, but information menstruation shouldn’t only be available to people with money. Also you would think they could get a moderator for the chat rooms or a professional to help answer questions, but no. So the chat rooms and answers are inaccurate and overrun with teens who don’t know anything because apparently female anatomy is only available to people with money. It’s such a shame..KathynicoleVersion: 5.1.2

Awful support must be AITLDR: only sign up for the free trial if you’re ready to pay within the first week. Original review: I signed up for the two-week free trial just to see if this would be for me. Day one after exploring a little, I decided it wasn’t worth the cost. I successfully hit cancel for the subscription on the first day of my free trial according to the instructions. However, when I canceled the subscription it showed that the subscription will end July of 2025. I reached out to support to ask if I will be charged. They sent instructions on how to cancel. I said cool, I already did that, now this is my question. They sent the same instructions AGAIN. Either someone is not listening to me, they’re buying time so I get charged, or it’s an awful AI that doesn’t know how to answer my question. I don’t trust tech not to charge me when the date shows it will be an active subscription for a year. It’s been very frustrating to get a simple answer and find a solution. I wish we could attach screenshots to these reviews. Update: I got charged on Day 2 of my two-week “free” trial while trying to resolve the above. I ended up requesting a refund through the App Store, which was approved. It’s awful that two weeks are promised and they don’t hold to it, and then they make all of us jump through hoops to get it fixed. I specifically didn’t go for other apps’ free trials because I saw it charged before the end. Then I ended up here myself. Is it Flo, or is it the system as a whole?.Leah Me.D.Version: 9.56.1

Used to love this app, but…I had been using this app for years, and I really enjoyed it for a long time. It was easy to log my period, and the app was very good at predicting my next cycle. The interface was super simple and easy to navigate. However, this app has unfortunately followed the trend of trying to push a subscription down your throat. It’s been incredibly frustrating to just try to log my period or view my past cycle data without having at least 3 pop-ups asking me to upgrade to a Premium subscription. I understand that some users may want more features, but I just want to use this app for its most basic intended purpose. I had subscribed to Premium in the past, but I honestly did not wind up using any of the Premium features. I don’t want to have to close a million pop-ups while a doctor is waiting for me to tell them the date of my last period. I would be fine just paying say up to $9.99 upfront to download this app and then being advertised a Premium subscription in a very non-intrusive way (maybe just tell me about it once, and then have the option available as a separate tab in the app). However, the extremely intrusive advertising for the Premium subscription has led me to delete my Flo account and this app. I understand being a business and wanting to make money, but I feel the user experience has greatly suffered in the process..Col4329Version: 9.71.0

Terrible customer service!!!I downloaded the app from the App Store on my iPhone. I realized a immediately I did not want it, and did not even set up an account through the app or anything. I went to my settings to my subscriptions, and the app was not there, so I did not think I had started the free trial, considering I never set up an account. My mother passed away in February so I didn’t even realized I was being charged for the app until my bank account was overdrafted in February. I have sent so many emails to get this taken care of and to get my refund and I always get a generic response back. They told me if I purchased the app on the web that I would have to go through the web to cancel my subscription, but I purchased it through the app on my iPhone, but I still went on the web and canceled my subscription. I WAS THEN CHARGED AGAIN in March for the app. I have been charged $75 for an app that I never wanted and nobody seems to be able to help me. I received MANY emails saying they would look into it, but NOBODY has reached out or even attempted to help me. I keep getting email responses from Agatha Answers telling me how to cancel my subscription but nobody wants to address the fact that I’ve been charged $75 that I don’t have. They think it’s some kind of joke and funny to completely ignore THEIR CUSTOMERS. It is so unprofessional! Do not download this app because they think it’s funny to play games with people rather than taking time to address their issues and refunding them their money..JessJayChVersion: 9.47

Too many adsI only want notifications that tell me when to anticipate my menses start date or ovulation, but I constantly get notifications like “Feeling frisky today? Your hormone levels are up!” “Set up a workout today” “It’s normal to feel down when your hormones drop” and other inappropriate statements that are embarrassing to receive when I am showing a work colleague something on my phone. I reported the issue to Flo and they said I had to turn off notifications altogether! It’s ridiculous how we cannot filter what we want to be notified of. Also, at the doctor’s I was asked the first date of my LMP. That’s what Flo is for. It took a full minute to open the app and click out of the annoying in-app pop ups that try to get me to use their features when all I wanted to do was go to my calendar. I don’t want to speak to your health advisor or whatever else you want me to do. I want a simple, unmessy, easy app to track my period. Lastly, I’ve been having issues opening the app and all I see is a huge ad saying “87% off Flo premium. Click next” and there is NO X at the corners to get away from the page. The only thing to click is “next” but I don’t want your premium. I have to close the entire app and reopen it to get the ad to disappear. Your app has a lot of people using it but it seems to be devolving into something sloppy and profit-hungry. I miss the days where it was a no-hassle, modest period tracker..Jamieeeeeee21Version: 6.4

Great for period tracking onlyI downloaded this app to track my periods, was great for that and plenty of little helpful insights/articles on the feed.. I used it to help conceive as well. Once I actually became pregnant and switched to “pregnancy mode” the little helpful insights diminished to almost none, maybe one every few weeks.. what would frustrate me also would be when I would click on the “For You” and it would show an insight article but then disappear before I got the chance to click on it. (Happened about a 100 of times on different occasions.) also the app doesn’t really have any symptoms tracker differentiations for the pregnancy mode... which seems kind of bizarre. Another thing is that in pregnancy mode it doesn’t say anything about the development of the baby at however many weeks you are. Not even a brief little description of what’s going on in your body at this time or a brief description of the development changes your baby is experiencing.. nothing at all.. I’m a first time mom so I use (5) different pregnancy apps to kind of bring all the information together, given that not all say the same thing or some say things others don’t and/or are more informative. I find myself using this app less and less as it isn’t very helpful in the pregnancy mode. I am currently 27 weeks so I’ve used it from the very beginning and nothing is getting better about it.. hopefully this review is helpful.LauritaGarciaVersion: 4.32.1

Overcharged so hardI was charged $200 for 5 months. It was charging me for 2 premium subscription that I couldn’t cancel. I had to go on safari to finally figure out how to stop the reoccurring $35. I signed up for the year subscription $40 and then was charged $35 a month after that for 5 months. When I pull it up on the app it just shows the premium but looking into it more and pulling it up on safari, it charged me for 2 premium subscriptions and that’s how it was sneaking $35 a month out of my account. This app was wonderful, tracked my periods great, my ovulation and I even got pregnant a month into using the app. It’s just a huge bummer that I’m out $200. This is my first child and I needed this money for my family and instead this app robbed me of my hard earned money. Extremely disappointing. I tried reaching out to the app and they told me to talk to Apple which it wasn’t being charged through. Flo was charging me. Not Apple. Just impossible to get ahold of anyone these days. Extremely disappointed and wish someone would help me get my money back. I canceled and was still charged $35 a month. This app just keeps taking and taking. Love that the person that responded offered no help in contacting someone. Such a joke and will be disputing with bank. I’ve emailed 3 times got a respond, sent them the info they needed back and nothing. Just auto responses. I wouldn’t bother reaching out to them you can’t contact anyone..Deane12345Version: 9.57.0

I used to love this appA few years ago I used Flo to keep track of my period and learn healthy ways to help my discomforts with it, then I took a long break from it as I started taking a birth control that stopped my period completely, and since the other functions of the app weren’t needed at the time, I decided to let it go. One of the first things I did when I decided to get off the pill was redownload the app, actually somewhat excited to be able to use it to help me track and not only aid me again in making that time of the month easier but also should my fiancé decide we want to try for children in the future when it would be best to try and helping in ways to maintain a healthy and open relationship to talk about wants/needs… and I’m really disappointed to see what’s happened to it. I used to be able to get aid with my symptoms that were actually helpful, now I get “Hi, we can help! But only if you pay to become a premium member.” I understood the function before on more in depth things, but now it’s literally any symptom including just having regular cramps, nausea, or back pain. It’s a shame that it’s become more about their profit than actually helping people that need it, and I’m definitely going to start researching other apps that do something similar that hopefully will help do more than just pressure me constantly to upgrade..PuppySaraVersion: 9.54.0

Messed upMoney hungry. Every time you tap on the app it will pop up with an screen forcing you to either choose a plan that requires money, or they have a small and faint "x" in the corner. Now this is often used by a ton of companies as it is a marketing strategy. Older people may not see the "x" and might click on something else which would lead them to a purchase if they are not careful. Additionally, the big screen provides several options for plans all of which you need to pay for. This is the "illusion of choice" and pressures the user to want to read about these plans. Unfortunately, you would hope that human beings who say they want to help women with their health would actually want to do so but alas this is not that app. Making a profit is indeed a choice and not a necessity but in this day and age people choose to not believe that. In addition, it is not trans-masc friendly. At all. Oh well. Just be weary and if you do download, be mindful of the tactics they will use (as every app will eventually use) to make a profit. There is no reason for them to ask for this much money this many times in order to keep running their app. That is a lie and that is a common excuse companies will make. Don't fall for it. Proceed with caution and if you do make the choice to use this app just only use it for tracking and nothing else because that is basically all you are able to do without being pressured..MJ420k3Version: 9.44

NonsenseI only downloaded Flo so that I could have a tool that would give me a few days notice of when to expect my next period. I just recently realized that I could just use the Health app on my iPhone which is completely free, and no pop-ups or ads in my face to do the exact same thing. AND I don’t have to see sexually explicit articles in my face when I open the app either. So since I have been using the Health app on my iPhone instead of Flo, I have pretty much just left Flo on my phone but have not been using it. Just now I got a notification from Flo saying “you are amazing and you have helped us help women and menstruating people around the world.” That was pretty much my sign to go ahead and delete it because I don’t use it anymore anyway and even if I was still planning on possibly using it, I wouldn’t after reading that. The fact that Flo takes a stance that there’s a difference between women and people who menstruate is ridiculous. The people who menstruate ARE women whether they like that or not. That is one of the differences that our Creator gave us that sets us apart from men so if you menstruate, you are a woman, even if you don’t choose to live like one. If the people in charge of Flo don’t agree with that opinion, then I want nothing to do with their services or their app and I will be uninstalling it right after I finish this review and hope that other people follow suit. If we as a society cannot understand and agree on that one simple point then there’s not much hope left for us in other matters..Aafiya1908Version: 9.10.1

Supporting wrong thingsThis app just supports ranting, it doesn’t provide any solution to it. To start, a lot of the posts are just weird. I open the app and see a post saying “what do you like about your boobs?” This should not be meant for kids. All I’m seeing on here is children coming with their problems, and placing it on this platform to just have people agree with them. The problem isn’t really being fixed. I mean you need to pay money to read articles that will hopefully help the issue, but kids are ranting about their parents on here, they need money from their parents to maybe find a way to solve their problem. Do you see this loop hole? Something else that bothers me is the lack of free speech. I guess I do understand a little bit about how religious speaking can be pressuring, but how am I supposed to support others on here and tell them what has worked for me if I can’t tell them to at least try to pray? I’m not forcing them, but I am suggesting, because it worked for me. I’m trying to be honest. I’m suggesting them to pray as it has worked for me, and I am not pressuring them at all. I get it, this app may be just to let your thoughts out, but if you’re letting kids do this, at least provide a way for them to fix their issues instead of supporting them to complain. I don’t know, I am upset about the free speech thing, but mainly I feel like this app is not putting good things into these kids’ minds..Lovelaneye1234Version: 9.68.0

Sharing data with FacebookFlo shared private data with Facebook. Not the way to go..Dave82atVersion: 4.23

...It use to be a great app...until they updated it and you have to literally pay for everything. It’s very pricey as well. Imagine being young and just wanting to get some insight on your body, and people are trying to make profit off of that...that’s shady. I honestly do not recommend this app..ChennelxVersion: 5.5.1

Offensive insightsThe features of this app are good, and I like the functionality and interface. After using it for 3 months, it’s quite accurate. However, I find some of the “insights” to be offensive. Recent insights I’ve received include a post about making sure your vagina smells good, and a survey asking about “homosexual” sex. It’s clear that this app is not designed or maintained by women. I’ll be switching to a different app..FingasickVersion: 4.9.5

Track pregnancyI used to LOVE this app for tracking my pregnancy. But needing to pay to see my babies size and what’s new that week? Seriously? It was free before why do I need to pay now? Don’t market the app as free when it clearly isn’t anymore, we need to pay to use any feature and I’m sick of it!.HdhdjifVersion: 9.17

Don’t bother unless you’re willing to payHonestly Flo used to be good but now it’s garbage. You can’t access anything without paying for premium. Not even the “health insights” that used to be free. They went from being a great source of information and period tracking to being a money grab. You could say the whole community aspect makes up for it but that has way more to do with the users than the app. The app seems to want to start divisive conversations and often asks really outdated and sexist questions. Seriously thinking of deleting it..ChrystlinVersion: 5.5.1

Not like it used to beI’ve been using flo for almost 6 years now and so many things have changed, and i don’t say that in a good way. nothing is free anymore, you have to pay for everything..Kiki2336Version: 5.5.1

PINK TAX, NOT FREEHaving a period is extremely expensive, and Flo thinks it should cost you an extra $10 a month to track it..HannabarqueVersion: 9.13.0

Suddenly they’ve made free features paid ones?It was never like this. Now I can’t even log my symptoms or view the daily report WHICH WAS ALL FREE before. Constantly shoving “87% off premium!” I had to cross off it every time. Didn’t bother me. Now it does with having taken the basic stuff away. Screw that. There are other apps out there. Disappointed.Abielark12345Version: 9.13.0

Use a different appIt used to be really good and informative but now it just wants you to upgrade to give any information. Not worth it! There’s a thing called google which is free..Brittneyann,Version: 4.59

Used to be perfect now it's annoying crapI regret that I updated the app. This has been the best app I've used for years with nice reminders when it's time for a period. Now it's a damn annoying thing that sends me notifications every single day! I turned off all reminders except for the start of a period, but I still get those annoying daily notifications. I can't turn them off completely, as the main function for me is a reminder of the upcoming period. The interface has changed to something crazy with a bunch of blocks, hints and other trash information I don't need. Every time I open the app I am asked to buy the premium which I will never buy as there are so many similar apps out there and the way the app has changed will never make me even consider paying for it. I would consider it for the app it used to be, a simple calendar with managed reminders, but not for the piece of crap it has become now. Too bad I'll have to find an alternative to this app, I'll miss the perfect app it used to be..AnagrinVersion: 9.29

The app is good but...Flo is good app but I find it creepy how it knows when I am late for my period. I don’t tell it anything and somehow it just knows and most of the time it doesn’t even get it on the right days..AwcatladyVersion: 4.56

Nothing for freeNot good, you literally have to pay for everything what’s the point? There’s other apps that are probably better..HasnoorpreetVersion: 9.96.0

Great BUT…I been having this app for more than 3 years it’s a great app for your period and tracking baby but now it makes you pay just to read about your body and baby on top of that it always popping up a premium advertisement every 2 minutes sucks I have to switch to another app after being a member for so long.Lizbeth alejandraVersion: 9.71.0

My experience with this appI can’t access most of the features on Flo without having premium. I get pop ups about premium whenever I open the app and it’s just frustrating overall to keep information behind a paywall. I don’t really like the app very well due to this. I’m sure this is a wonderful app for people who pay, but it’s just not right for the people who can’t pay for one reason or another..CheerilieVersion: 9.71.0

DELETE THIS APPThis app sells ur data and can know when ur pregnant and can see if you’ve gotten an illegal abortion in the usa and other places so they can put you in jail, this is absolutely disgusting not just that ABORTION IS ILLEGAL also that old men are deciding what’s best for OUR BODYS NOT THEIRS, OURS. We are moving back in time, not forward, MY BODY MY CHOICE.KyleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeereVersion: 9.1

I like it... but...I like the app cause I can keep track of my moods cycles and more But recently whenever I’ve tried edit my period dates, it kicks me out of the app all together and I kind of rely on that function a lot, so I think I’ll start looking for another app to use....Pelly4595Version: 5.9

DisappointedWhen I came off birth control to start trying to have my son, I just needed an easy spot to track my period. While there were some other bells and whistles that were interesting, that was really all I ever used it for. Now a couple of years later, it’s essentially unusable for that purposes without paying for a subscription. All I want to do is enter my period dates, and I have to watch/click through ads (multiple) to do that? It’s way out of hand..AsluchevskyVersion: 5.5.1

What happened?!I loved this app up until a few weeks ago when it started spamming my phone like crazy about things that I am not interested in and are somewhat offensive. I have played with the settings to no avail and contact support who told me to turn off the notifications all together. But I do want the ones relevant to me! I’m disappointed to uninstall..JrpettsVersion: 5.2.1

Avoid using and wasting your timeIf I could give no stars I would. This app used to be amazing and 5 stars when I started using this past March to log dates. It would give you daily insights based on your logs to help you understand. I used the app this past week and all good and I recently updated my app a few days ago and now you have to pay for EVERYTHING. I understand the live chats, etc. being a premium charge, but the daily insights were free and useful when logging. The only thing you can do for free now that they offer is to log your dates and symptoms, but can’t receive the daily insights anymore to know what it means, so what is the point. This app used to be super helpful and great to use. Now it doesn’t even make sense having it. Use another app and save your time and disappointment..Nini.0707Version: 9.105.0

Stop farming for moneyWhy do i actually have to pay for everything on this app just for it to be so inaccurate like it never logs my period on time and that’s literally all it does for free. Such a terrible app don’t even consider downloading it, you could log it better by memory..Danielle💛Version: 9.100.0

Unhappy costumer !After my Pro subscription expired, the app became very frustrating to use. Every time I open it, I’m flooded with constant pop-ups pushing me to subscribe again, which takes time to close.

Money grab disguise to care about womenThey always keep pushing this “limited edition $20 sale” that comes back every few months and then the regular price is $80 everything that you need from the app can be found in other places for free, if you really care about women, you wouldn’t put everything behind a pay wall. the free version of the app is okay The best part would probably be the secret chat but the app would be so much better if it wasn’t constantly pushing you to buy their premium version..MKay4_Version: 9.97.1

The popups are SO ANNOYINGHonestly, I get having to change the subscription model and making features exclusive, HOWEVER please stop with the CONSTANT popups!!!!!! Like I’m just trying to log my period dates and it’s like every click is met with a prompt to subscribe!!! Like if I accidentally click on anything it’s a prompt!! I’m tired of seeing a million things, it makes the home page so cluttered and on top of it it’s all behind a paywall so it’s useless anyways to me!! I JUST WANT TO LOG MY PERIOD WITHOUT HAVING TO CLICK “X” A MILLION TIMES.Meesa1738Version: 9.96.0

DisappointedI was very disappointed to see that you now have to pay for this app. This used to be free years ago and was the best tracker app I had tried. I download it again now because I’d like to track more closely now, come to find out after putting in all my info, that it’s a paid subscription service. It’s super unfortunate and not to mention pretty pricey..EmandEm120Version: 9.96.0

Make changesHonestly this used to be an amazing app been using it for about 2 years and now it’s just money hungry I don’t really find it useful anymore maybe just to track my period but now to have it make money off it just doesn’t feel right I’m gonna be changing platforms.Genevie_mVersion: 9.83.1

App used to be great.I used to love Flo. It was simple, reliable, and genuinely helpful for tracking my cycle and symptoms. The app gave great insights, reminders, and even helpful wellness tips—all without asking for money. It felt like it was made for women, by people who actually understood our needs. Now? Almost every feature is locked behind a subscription. Even basic things like cycle predictions and health tips—things that should be accessible to all—are hidden unless you pay. It feels like the developers are capitalizing on women’s health and turning it into a cash grab. This shift is disappointing and disheartening. Period tracking is a basic health need, not a luxury service. There are free apps that offer the same core features without exploiting users. I’m switching, and I hope others do too—because this isn’t the Flo I used to recommend..ESchjernVersion: 9.83.1
