Menstrual Health tracker

[Margaret182]

Is there a way to revert back to the older version of the menstrual tracker. I had an update today and it is awful. It doesn't show you the full month, tell you what day of you cycle it is and no option to add when ovulation actually is. It just assumes everyone ovulated mid cycle. I see no option to add symptoms. Please allow us to revert back to the old version.

Fitbits just seems to be getting worse, First the clock face, then Spotify, the dashboard and now this

The new menstrual tracking on the app no longer displays what day you are at in your cycle. This is very annoying.

This update must have been done by a non-menstruating human. There is no comparison between what was available before, and now. I'm hopeful they can fix things because of feedback.

Please change it back!!! I agree wholeheartedly. Where have the days gone, I used the "day 3" etc ALOT to cross-reference to a cycle. And the format is awful!!!

[Diamondtwist]

100% agree. The new update is terrible. Calendar is not interactive and they've removed so many symptoms that were there previously.

It feels like a bunch of people who never had to deal with periods made it. Unfortunately since fitbit is a part of Google now, there's no way Google will pay attention to this. They don't care

I agree totally. I need to know what day I'm on. Irregular cycle means their predictions are never correct but I can work out other aspects of my health based on cycle day. Bring back thr old calendar!

I absolutely agree, what on earth have the developers done with the period tracker?! It's now pretty much unusable and makes no sense. Tracking the symptoms was really useful for me, being in peri-menopause - but now there doesn't seem to be an intuitive way to log details, or even amend dates? This update was clearly written by a man, with zero thought about how and why women actually used the tracker - and I'd love to know whether Fitbit has bothered doing any real user testing on this with women. Thanks Fitbit, you've really messed this up. Just another example of women's health being unimportant/ignored. 

[Racheycakes]

Absolutely agree. There are lots of women complaining about this update as now the period tracker is pretty much impossible to use. I really hope the moderators/devs take the feedback on board. Now there seems to be no way to log the symptoms, the colour coding is ridiculous, you can't click and hold to amend anything etc. This update has clearly been written by men with zero understanding of how periods work, or why we women found the previous version much more user friendly. 

[Racheycakes]

Please fix the period tracker so we can actually use it properly. New update is woeful, not user friendly, and totally pointless
We can't amend dates, can't press/hold to amend, no options to add symptoms, colour coding is confusing. Please just revert back to how it was before because it actually worked and was useful.

If you click on your icon on the top right hand corner in the app there is a feedback option there which should go direct to Google.

I agree with  @Margaret182 and everyone else. This new menstrual tracker is the worst! I think it was developed by a man who has no idea what actual women need to see and know about their cycles. I can't even figure out which day my cycle is on without manually counting? An excel spreadsheet is better than this junk. Now I'm going to have to find another app. Please @Fitbit let us have the old one back. I loath this change.

[Jstutz]

I chatted with someone today via the contact chat to let them know about these horrible changes! I hope more women do the same.

[Racheycakes]

Oh! How did you do that?! Maybe we should all get on to it and give them grief about it.

I just have one question. Why would you want Google to have access to your menstrual cycle information? It's not something I would share in this day and age. Am I missing something?
