- Whoop has partnered with women’s health tracking app Natural Cycles
- Whoop users get one year of the app totally free
- Natural Cycles will use that data to provide a ‚daily fertility status‘ through its app
Whoop has partnered with women’s health tracking app Natural Cycles, offering a year’s worth of membership to existing Whoop users free of charge.
Whoop users also using the Natural Cycles app can now enable their Whoop app to import skin temperature data into Natural Cycles, said to ‚eliminate the need for manual daily tracking‘ using a fingertip sensor or similar. Natural Cycles will incorporate this data to provide a daily fertility status, as basal body temperature is a key indicator in cycle tracking.
“At Natural Cycles, we’re committed to making digital contraception as seamless as possible for our users,“ Dr. Magda Armbruster, VP of Product at Natural Cycles, said in a statement.

„Integrating with WHOOP removes friction from the experience by allowing members to use the wearable they already rely on to automatically capture overnight skin temperature used by the NC° app to determine daily fertility status.“
It’s worth noting the integration is only available with Whoop MG and Whoop 5.0 devices: anyone still rocking the Whoop 4.0 is unfortunately left out in the cold.
Whoop isn’t the only wearable that Natural Cycles works with. Natural Cycles can use data from Whoop’s fellow subscription-powered premium wearable, the Oura Ring, as well as the best Garmin devices and Natural Cycles‘ own NC Band.
Natural Cycles costs $149.99 in the US, £89.99 in the UK or AU$149.99 in Australia, so you’re saving a packet here.
Natural Cycles is unusual for a women’s health tracking app in that it claims to be the ‚only FDA-cleared, hormone-free birth control app‘. Clearance from the US Food & Drug Administration is a badge of quality in the consumer health tech space.
The Whoop’s recently seeing a new challenger in the screenless smart band form factor: the Garmin Cirqa. You can watch our video review of the device below.
