New Menstrual Health Tracker Layout

[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

Thanks @Paula_11 

Shall we add a feature request? I can see other people have done it about other features as well as can see a few 'bring back' type requests.... Clearly it's more than just this aspect of the app they have changed without user testing🙈. Might be the best way and then if it gets enough votes I think they have to respond?

I don't mind starting one 🤷🏼‍:female_sign:

Why bother? They don't ever consider it even when a vote gets enough votes to be at the top. Remember back when people got top votes to have them return our games and challenges? They seemed to add a section somewhere for things they will never consider. I am so tired of our votes being ignored.

Might be a bit futile but I have posted in the product feedback forum. If enough of us point out how unhelpful the new calendar is they might make some changes, stranger things have happened. It does make me wonder if any women were in their dev team or testing groups for that feature!

I hope so, even offered my assistance in testing features. (I design UI as
a job).

But I already stopped using the app for tracking my cycle months ago.
Became completely unusable.

Though I would be surprised if at one point the menstrual tracking will
become a paid feature... because of some weird conservative reasons where
women aren't allowed insights in their body.

Try adding a pregnancy. Can't be done either. That's what I hated the most
about the tracker from day one.

Been using it myself for over 5 years. But stopped using it months ago
because it became unusable.

My Calendar is a great app, which I used when I tried to get pregnant. It
can store so much data; your mood, medication, medication timers, sex,
ovulation, temperature, weight, pregnancies. And much more I don't even use.

Best of all, unless you want it to look all cute and pink, it's free!

I also had been having this issue.

I discovered if you forget to log your period, you can click on it as if you're going to log it today, CHANGE THE END DATE FIRST to the closest date the app allows to when ur actual period ended. Then the rest of that month will become available to use for a start date. 

Example, mine started 23rd ended 27th IRL. forgot until today to log. Changed end date to 7/29 as that was earliest available date it'd allow. Then when I clicked on start date the entire mo th of July suddenly became available. Clicked the 23rd and after, updated my end date to 7/27.

I'm ready to give up on Fitbit, the menstrual tracker was one of my favorite features, but the update completely destroyed it. Literally not a single thing I like about the update. Anyone find anything they like better? It is too annoying to even try it anymore.
