Apple's Cycle Tracking app will soon indicate the gestational age of a user's pregnancy, according to an announcement made during the company's WWDC 2024 presentation.
Gestational age is a term that describes how far a pregnancy is, based on the first day of a woman's last period. Currently, app users can input their pregnancy into the app, which tracks menstrual cycles but does not show gestational age.
The Health app will also prompt pregnant users to review important wellness metrics, including their high heart rate notification threshold. Heart rate typically increases during pregnancy.
The changes will take effect with iOS 18, which is expected to launch in September.
