MyRing - contraceptive ring

This app used to be great. I purchased it a few years ago and it was a savior when it came to reminding me each month. Lately my reminders don’t pop up as they should and because I rely on it, it’s messed my cycles up pretty bad the last few months. I ended up having to set reminders myself in my calendar. Ive tried to reset it and the same thing happens. This should be looked into.

Ok, so my first issue is that it doesn’t even have an option for my cycles. I specifically downloaded an app so I wouldn’t have to change everything around in my calendar while I’m skipping cycles for the next few months. This is a 28 day in, 0 day out cycle. You just put a new ring in right away... the app only allows you to go down to 2 days out. Alright, whatever. So I tried to tweak it to make my “out day” a red dot just so I would know when to switch mine out for a new one.. but it marks my “out day” and the extra two days it’s making me have the same color, and it would alert me again to put a new one in two days later. That and every time you want to change the dot colors or anything, it resets all of your settings. Like what? Why not just let me change one thing at a time instead of having to redo everything? Just a terrible setup & no options for those of us that skip cycles. Found a free app that had all the options and didn’t reset to change small things.

I used to trust and rely on this app to tell me when to remove and insert my Nuvaring. I’ve now been duped by it twice and it’s completely messed up my cycle by telling me to remove it on the wrong day. I have a separate app to remind me when to take all of my daily medications because I have trouble remembering due to brain fog. Last time this happened I made sure to actually open the app and check the dates from then on but I forgot this most recent time due to being under a lot of stress. I expect better from a paid app.

I’ve been using this app for over a year. The one big issue I’ve found is that it sends ring remove/insert notifications at the wrong times. This last cycle it sent it the day before, and I didn’t realize, removing my ring. It has also sent them when I still have 17+ days before removal. It’s annoying to have to double check the reminders.

If the app could look like a regular calendar , starting the week with Sunday-Saturday and not Monday-Sunday, it would look less confusing when using it. And give users the option to be able to change all the color options in the calendar to better suit our preference. We did buy the app after all. I’d love to give a better review if these options were given to us.
