Incorrect calculation of ovulation in period tracker

Replies are disabled for this topic. Start a new one or visit our Help Center.

As is widely known, most women ovulate on day 14 of their cycle, with day 1 being the first day of their period. However, I’ve noticed that instead the app consistently predicts that ovulation will occur 14 days BEFORE the next predicted period. This would be fine for someone with a consistent 28 day cycle. However, this leads to very incorrect predictions of ovulations for people who have cycles that are shorter or longer than 28 days and/or who have inconsistent cycles. The app should be fixed so that it calculates ovulation at cycle day 14 of every cycle.

This is incorrect. Ovulation is 14 days before the start of your period, regardless of when your last period was. If you don't ovulate then you don't have a next period.
