Spot On Period Tracker
authentic ratingSpot On was released by Planned Parenthood and was unique across several dimensions: no gendering, support for multiple contraceptive methods, and a privacy-first approach. After a major redesign, the app has nearly stopped working: users lose 5 to 8 years of data, cannot log in, cannot edit entries. Several people report that support does not respond. The product idea is valuable. The current version is a disaster.
textAvg=2.16 honestly reflects the real situation: the overwhelming majority of substantive reviews are one-stars citing data loss and a non-functional redesign. pct5=70 looks inflated, likely old five-stars from the previous version.
What users love
- Before the redesign: the only tracker with support for the ring
- Implant
- And other non-pill contraceptive methods. No gender labels and no forced pregnancy as a goal: a valuable position for this audience.
What users hate
- Years of data lost after the update
- Documented across dozens of reviews. Predictions are broken: the algorithm averages incorrectly and does not learn from history. Missed pills or a new pack start date cannot be corrected.
Who it is for
Not recommended in its current state. Target audience: women with non-standard contraceptive methods and a privacy priority who now lack a working tool.
