After trying to conceive for over two years and using a thermometer to track my bbt for over a year, I sought medical attention. I found out that I had stage four endometriosis and needed surgery to remove a large mass from one of my ovaries. Two cycles post-surgery, I bought an Ava bracelet and made several diet and lifestyle changes including switching to a high protein and low carb diet. By this time we had been trying for over three years. After wearing the bracelet for 2.5 cycles and using the data, We finally got a positive pregnancy test. I love not stressing about getting an accurate thermometer reading every morning and being able to see my data so clearly. Definitely recommend. The price of the bracelet is nothing compared to thousands in fertility treatment, but I figured that if I ended up needing it, the data would only help.

The bracelet itself worked well
The bracelet itself worked well. Taking data on my own was stressing me out, and being able to just put on a bracelet and forget about it was great. The phone software was not particularly useful--I ended up putting all of my data into Fertility Friend, which is awesome. The predictions, etc, through the AVA app were not useful, though to be fair I have PCOS and a long cycle and it is not optimized for that yet. Even if I had a normal cycle, though, I do not think the interface was particularly easy or useful compared to FF. But the bracelet itself and the data is all good--just use a different app.

This was so much easier than BBT tracking but not perfect
This was so much easier than waking up every morning and taking my basal body temp but it took about 6 months to accurately predict my ovulation, which I was tracking using LH tests. It would be nice if there was a way to input information like that and have it change/learn your ovulation pattern.

I like the bracelet and all the info it…
I like the bracelet and all the info it gives me. I was using it to try and conceive and after a year of not getting pregnant, I decided to try using the ovulation stick tests as well as the bracelet. The timing it was telling me for ovulation was off by at least 3 days from the ovulation stick tests. A whole year of using the bracelet with no luck, but the very first time I used the stick testing conjunction with the bracelet, I got pregnant. Disappointed that the bracelet was so off and therefore it took me much longer to get pregnant.

Ava is helpful but it is not spot on
Ava is helpful but it is not spot on. OPKs are still needed to confirm. The app Sam's syncing is glitchy and tech support didn't recommend anything that worked. Overall it's very helpful, but for the cost I'd expect better performance.

The only down fall to this bracelet is…
The only down fall to this bracelet is it seems to have a lot of trouble syncing. Plus it has issues staying charged. I like how it tracks temperature and heart rate.

Garbage Tracker with many flaws and issues
I ordered my Ava tracker since 3/12. I've been having issues since. I had many email exchanges, the wait time for a customer service to get back to you is 3-4 days. There's no number that you could call to get help, only by email. They should have an online chat to help customers. The service is terrible. When they do respond, they basically copied and pasted everything from their website. Never really answer any questions or concerns. Then you would have to wait another 3-4 days for them to get back to you with same useless unhelpful answers. They can't explain the function of their own product in details. They wont' be able to tell you why but keep insisting as long as the watch detected 3 hours of sleep then it will work... but my actual sleep time is 6 hours, so how believable is that? of 6 hours, they only detect 3 hours and they would just tell me that's enough to get the reading. They cannot explain why it does that, just repeatedly tell me the same BS. It's like I'm talking to a wall.
I've asked them why is my Fitbit tracker and Ava tracker is so different. I on purpose wear my Fitbit at night, like I'd with the ava tracker, and the numbers are off. Not to mention I also used another sleeping device to track my resting heart rate and this would match my Fitbit while Ava is totally different. Let me mention that they all wear on my wrist. It appears that Ava really off.
I understand the skin temperature is different than the temperature taking by the mouth, but if my internal temperature spike, you would think my skin temperature should simultaneously do the same thing and spike at the same time, but no it doesn't. It didn't have any change for a week or two, not until when my internal body temperature drop is when my skin temperature goes up.
My Fitbit tells me I slept 7 hours, the ava tracker will tell me i only slep 4-5 hours. Tell me how off that is? It's really garbage!
Here's another thing that frustrates me, I was messing around with the app functions - like everyone else who gets a new toy that comes w/ an app... I was switching from "tracking period" to 'trying to conceive' to 'i am pregnant', while I was changing it, it CLEARLY said "you could change back anytime", YEA, you could totally change back but they failed to tell you that they will mark you as miscarriage or loss otherwise they won't allow you to change back. So now my app thinks i was pregnant and i had a loss/miscarriage. So all of that info wont be accurate. So I just found out you could delete the pregnancy/miscarriage log, but after doing so the chart won't be back to normal as before. It doesn't even show when I'd ovulate until next month. So now I'd have to track another month or two before it'll be 'normal'again. So much for curiosity of how each function work in the app.
This app have so many flaws, just like the bracelet tracker itself.. its all full of flaws and issues. It's not worth $300 for this garbage. If you are considering to get this, like I was , which was a terrible mistake. I've watched youtube video reviews and read on their site. I told myself why not, they have a great idea and all, but it's not worth the money. DO NOT BUY THIS!
If you have the extra money, yea buy this garbage gadget. I was skeptical and now this proves it. I also have all the thing that i documented and emails exchange to prove this is a real piece a garbage. Don't be a fool like me to buy this garbage! They have a great idea, but it doesn't execute like it said it would. Until they correct this, it is still a piece a junk. I would not recommend this at all!
