Best TTC Apps

I looked around on the boards, but haven't found much in the pre-pregnancy department for good TTC apps (other than FF, which is great). Anyone have any favorites? Thanks in advance.

You're just going to get a lot of affirmation for FF.

what do you want out of an app that FF and TB do not provide?

Since the rest are just calendar apps, you're not going to find people here really recommending other apps. Just google TTC apps in the iTunes Store and see what's the highest rated. Done.

I am really not sure what I am looking for, so I guess this is more of an information fishing expedition. I like being able to track things, check information, and have access to specific-types of info at my fingertips, but I am kind of slow to the new tech things. For example, I didn't realize the usefulness of FF until I started using it; I was kinda skeptical of "period tracking" type things, but now I am on an app kick and I am hoping that if there are other interesting TTC apps, folks will share them.

I have a nutrition (ok, diet-tracking) app that I like and a different fitness/exercise/calorie burn app. Are there nutrition apps for TTC that people like? What about other reminder-type apps? I am just curious if others have information about things I can also try out.

I will say that I was using FF before I came here and discovered FF is the bomb yo!

I don't know of any TTC specific diet apps, but I like MyFitnessPal. I use Waterlogged to track how much water I'm drinking, and GoodHabits to remember to take my pre-natal.

I recently downloaded Glow. I like it but I also still use FF. You can chart temps and it syncs up with my Fitbit so it also tracks exercise/weight loss or gain/sleep. It also has a community you can access. It's fun to use but I also don't want to rely on it 100%. I've been tracking in FF for years so it's knows my cycles vs only a couple months of data in Glow. So I use both.

I just stick with FF and TB apps. I feel like I get more data and facts from both rather than the calendar apps I was using at the beginning of the year. Most of the calendar apps kept telling me my cycles were the standard 28 days even though most of the time they're longer around 32-35 days - the calendar apps would never actually update my potential FW so I stopped using them.

I use Glow, ff, and Ovia. It's kind of an experiment.
I find ff to be useful, however it is not very user friendly and can waffle on on confirming the ovulation date.

Glow is my favorite, it has been the most accurate for me in predicting both ovulation and AF. Plus it's so much more user friendly.

Ovia is crap but I like the little ttc factoids it gives

I agree that FF is useful, but its layout is SO UGLY. I'd love a tool that is as functional as FF but as pretty as Ovia.

Edit: spelling

Glow tracks nutrition, calorie burn and weight and it also has a reminder/alert function. It can remind you to temp, drink water, set a custom alert, and others.

I started with Ovia, then started using FF after coming here. I still use both to see how they compare... but I think I'll ad glow to the mix!

vampbride99 · September 2015

I've been using Glow for a few months and I love it

wellinaustin · September 2015

I was using "clue" a tracking app that had some prediction capabilities and learns after cycles, started using FF when I came to TB and honestly it's WAY better! I wish I started with this app so I would have more and better historical data!
