How to install the NC° Apple Watch app
To be able to use the NC° Apple Watch app:
- Your NC° app version must be 5.2.0 or higher
- You must be an iOS user

Depending on your iPhone’s settings, the NC° Apple Watch app will be automatically installed on your watch. If that’s not the case, you may need to install it by going to the Apple Watch app on your phone and pressing “Install” next to Natural Cycles in the list of available apps.
Note: The NC° Apple Watch app is directly linked to the NC° phone app and cannot be accessed on its own – it can be viewed as an extension or a companion app.
How the NC° Apple Watch app works
With the NC° Apple Watch app, you can view your fertility status and other insights directly on your Apple Watch. Please note that at the moment, it’s not possible to add any data through the NC° Apple Watch app.
On the main screen, you’ll see your fertility status for the day, along with today’s temperature, your Cycle Day, and the day of the week.
If you click the temperature, you’ll unlock more information about it, such as the time it was logged into the app and (if applicable) the reason it was excluded.
From the main screen, you can scroll down to check your predictions and your ovulation test results. You can also see which cycle phase you’re in.
Can I use the NC° Apple Watch app even if my Apple Watch is not compatible as a measuring device?
