Arrows at the top of some screens allow you to change month (calendar), day (symptom recording), or cycle (charts).
Navigate through the app features using the toolbar buttons at the bottom. Those with multiple
options generate a pop up to select from.
Select "Connect" and "Startup Tutorial" to open this tutorial again later.
Record Your First Cycle
Startup Tutorial (Part 2 of 8)
First record the start of your cycle. From the calendar view, touch the date your last cycle started.
Expand the "Other Info/Notes" section and check the "This day should start a new cycle" box. You can leave the
autonumber option checked unless you manually want to name or number this cycle/chart.
After creating your cycle, touch the "Calendar" navigation button to return to the calendar. Automatic cloud synchronization and
backup occur whenever you visit the calendar page. There is a legend beneath the calendar to explain it.
Recording Daily Symptoms
Startup Tutorial (Part 3 of 8)
Record symptoms by touching a date on the calendar. Expand the sections to record various fertility symptoms. You can also optionally record personal notes and events for future reference.
When finished, you can use the arrows at the top to advance to another date and continue recording.
When complete, return to the calendar to allow synchronization with the cloud.
Fertility Charting
Startup Tutorial (Part 4 of 8)
To view your symptoms on a chart, select "Charts" (navigation toolbar) and "Chart" (pop-up menu).
You may be prompted to pick a cycle (or can select "Pick Another Cycle" from the pop-up menu if you want to chart another cycle).
Each cycle has its own chart. Rows correspond to tracked symptoms and columns to dates. Colors highlight Phase I, II, and III. To understand
the indicators on your chart, expand the "Charting Notation Legend" section beneath your chart.
Selecting Phase Dates
Startup Tutorial (Part 5 of 8)
You can pick the Phase I and Phase III analysis rules used for each cycle. Select "Charts" (navigation toolbar) and "Select Phase Dates" (pop-up menu).
Phase I selection is first. Rules not available cannot be chosen and an explanation is provided below. The resulting cycle day calculated
using each rule is shown for this cycle.
The Phase III rule is further down. Again the resulting cycle day calculated using each rule is shown. Below this you can specify cycle
notes or view notes your instructor entered pertaining to this cycle.
The selected rules will be used to color your chart for the chosen cycle. For rare circumstances, it is possible to override the calculated dates and manually specify dates.
This can only be done on CycleProGo.com by viewing your Fertility Chart.
Chart Sharing
Startup Tutorial (Part 6 of 8)
Touch "Connect" (navigation toolbar) and "Share Your Chart" (pop-up menu) if you wish to share your chart with others.
To share your charts with your instructor (or another teaching couple), use the option to share "with a CycleProGo user". This also allows
sharing with another student or user. Sharing with this option grants access to only specified user(s) of CycleProGo.
To share your chart with anyone (even someone without a CycleProGo account), use the "with anyone" option. This helps create
a special URL that you can email, post to an online message board, or otherwise share. Anyone receiving the link will be able to view
that chart (and only that chart).
If you wish to print your chart or view charts that other CycleProGo users shared with you, you can do so by logging into CycleProGo.com
using a web browser on any computer or your mobile device. These other options assist with this.
Recording Events
Startup Tutorial (Part 7 of 8)
You can also track various events. To do so, select a date from the calendar and expand the "Events" section.
Check the events you wish to record for the given date.
Recorded events appear at the bottom of your fertility chart.
You can record numerous events. Not all of them are shown by default though. To select among all
available events, select "Settings" and "Configure Events".
All possible events appear in categories. Expand to view. Checking a box will make that
event visible for daily recording. Unchecking it hides it. You can also create up to 20 custom events.
Specify a name for your custom event and check the box so that it is visible for daily recording.
Cloud Synchronization
Startup Tutorial (Part 8 of 8)
You can access your charts and data from a computer. This allows printing and saving of charts. You can also
record data from a second or third mobile device by installing the app and using the same username and
password. Couples then have shared access on their own devices. Some advanced settings and features are
only available at CycleProGo.com. You can access them using a browser on your computer or mobile device. Login
using the same username and password used in this app.
This app automatically synchronizes with the cloud. Some fertility analysis is also performed in the cloud for you.
Whenever you view the calendar or a chart, synchronization happens automatically in the background. A black box in the upper right
corner indicates status. This box disappears when cloud synchronization and analysis is complete. You can also force synchronization
at any time by touching the Sync button on the navigation toolbar.
