New Menstrual Health Tracker Layout

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

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.

I too came here looking for some answers on how to find things.  My situation is a little different, but it all comes down to the same things...

I am 50, and premenopausal.  I have never had "regular periods".  As a young adult, they could be anywhere from thirty five to forty two (apparently I had to spell that out because the numbers were now allowed?) days.  Now that I'm older, I really want trustworthy data.  You aren't considered in menopause until you go a full year without a period.  I was really excited at the end of last year, because I had made it to almost 4 1/2 months, only to start my cycle the day my grandson was born (because it wasn't a stressful enough day!).  That cycle lasted exactly 28 days, the next one a month and a half.  Now I don't remember how long it's been (old people problems!), and the new update makes it difficult to delete a predicted period. 

Also menopause affects so much more than just my cycle days.  I loved being able to track sexual activity, and I see that you still can - sort of - by adding tags to your period days.... Except those are the LEAST likely days for sex (at least for me). It's not so much about tracking the sex, but being about to guesstimate if there are changes in my sex drive due to menopause. 

I read in another post somewhere that people wanted more options to track sex other than just protected or unprotected.  Some things mentioned were: more specific choices of birth control vs condoms, masturbation, being able to log being turned on, even if it didn't result in sex.  Many of these would be valuable for me in tracking changes to my sex drive.

Maybe I'm overthinking it, but I'm a data analyst, so I always want the ability to have more data rather than less.

It's absolutely horrible!  Considering a new app for tracking.
