Horrible app that sucks the money out of you, and horrible choice if you have ADHD like me.
Like many have described in the reviews, this app just quietly keeps charging a subscription fee right around the time you forget about it---and an exorbitant amount as well!
I'm one of the fools that haven't yet unsubscribed from them even though I have a million complaints about them, only because I feel that perhaps I will get some valuable information from their tutorials and every time I'm hit with this crazy expensive subscription fee, my anger and frustration makes me feel like I should at least finish all the tutorials before cancelling to make that fee at least a little worthwhile... but I get too busy with life and work and with my ADHD mind, I can never go through little bits of it every single day... I need to be able to go through the whole thing in my rare occasions of hyper-focus... which is exactly what it DOESN'T LET YOU DO! It literally sets a cap on how many tutorials you can go through in a day and LOCKS THE REST until the next day. By the next day most likely I have forgotten about the app and I'm off doing other things.
Anyway, I just got hit with yet ANOTHER charge from them, which again, as many have reported here, GYNA refuses to refund. And while I am filled with anger and frustration again and feel like for the millionth time, I should at least complete all the tutorials, knowing my limits and how it's been going the last couple of years, I am thinking perhaps I should just give up and cancel, and accept this recent charge and all the previous charges as a VERY EXPENSIVE learning experience to not get lured into these silly programs.
Aside from the above complaints, here are some of the other things I am unhappy about this app:
-It welcomes subscribers from around the world, but the products they suggest, their recipes, and examples, are very much American. I honestly feel that there should have been a warning somewhere that made that clear before signing up.
-I absolutely HATE their Q&A style tutorials! VERY often my answer is something other than the selection of answers they provide, and very often, "Other" or "None of the above" is NOT an option. And unless you select one of the available options, you cannot move forward with the tutorial. It is extremely frustrating. Why do they assume that all our minds, lifestyle, and health situation can be shoved together in a simple list of answers like that?
-In the beginning of by signing up to Gyna, I attempted to contact them. Even that isn't simple. They force you through selection of categories. I was eventually lead to an agent (coach?) who emailed me how she could help. I wrote her my concerns and questions, and she NEVER responded after that.
-They oversimplify the wording of their tutorials... and leave out important bits, like which unit they are using when they say "your weight" in calculations? Lbs? Kg? So I get lost... but again, since the whole app is based on you being forced to pick your answers from their limited selection of answers, you cannot easily find your answers to your questions or concerns along the way.
-From the impression I've gotten from going through their tutorials half way and their "meal plan" & "recipes", basically this app is only beneficial to someone living in America or in the West, used to the kind of foods they eat, that has a lot of time in their hands to cook healthy foods at home every day, exercise often and sleep well. (Honestly if you are that person, you are probably healthy enough to not have infertility , and you can probably quite easily get out of infertility if you do suffer it). If you are juggling jobs, living a fast paced life in a big city outside US and/or the West like myself, keeping up with many of what they suggest to be beneficial to your fertility is difficult.
I am always working, overwhelmed with all the chores undone at home because I just don't have the time or energy to tackle them. I am always so tired that I end up choosing sleep over exercising as I don't have time to do both. I'm often having to go to business dinners and business drinking and can't pick what I consume, and when I try to cook at home I often run out of energy and time half way. I've always preferred healthy foods and do eat well when given the chance, but I historically only ate once or twice a day, and recently my appetite just disappeared altogether and can't eat that much anymore. A healthy sleep is nonexistent as I work with international time zones and work crazy hours, I am either insomniac or oversleep, I sleep too little or I get woken up several times through my sleep for work or to care for my senior cat with health issues and dimentia,... I am older, my AMH is so low now although I was never diagnosed as infertile by any of the gynecologists I've been to,... plus I am ADHD and my brain functions like a long duration of paralysis and short and sporadic bouts of hyper-focus. If you are anything like me, trying to get anything out of Gyna is pretty hopeless.
If this app was something like $30/year, I wouldn't have complained and probably would have just kept it until some day that I would hopefully finish the tutorials and have the time to follow and cook their meal plans. But with their extremely expensive pricing... made worse by how week my currency is against USD, and life becoming increasingly more costly (food and power prices going up, my senior cat's health needing medical attention, my health requiring attention...), Gyna has only become a cancer to my finances and given me zero help with fertility.
