Questions and Answers about the app
I can't connect my holder to the app. What should I do?
Check that Bluetooth® on your phone is turned on. Insert the wake-up stick and wait for
flashing symbols to appear on the holder display. If no symbols appear there is a
problem with the holder. Please call the Clearblue® Helpline. You can still test using this
holder but you'll be unable to sync results to the app.
Do I need my phone to test?
No. Test normally following the instructions from step 3. The holder will display a
flashing asterisk to show data is available to sync. When Bluetooth® on your holder and
phone is turned on, the result will sync. To turn on Bluetooth® on your holder insert the
wake up stick and wait for the Bluetooth® symbol to appear.
My result hasn't been synced to the app and it's no longer on the holder display.
What should I do?
If your test stick is still inserted into the holder eject it and the result will re-appear on
the display. While it is displayed, Bluetooth® will be activated and your result will sync to
the app if your phone has Bluetooth® turned on.
If you have ejected the test stick and the result is no longer displayed you need to insert
the wake-up stick to activate Bluetooth®. Your result will then be synced to the app if
your phone has Bluetooth® turned on. Eject the wake-up stick once your result has
been synced.
Where is my information stored?
Synced results and information you have entered on the app are stored on your phone.
When you are connected to the internet all your information is also transferred to your
personal account. This is a secure and confidential area so it's a good idea to keep your
personal account updated in case you lose or change your phone. You can check when
this was last done by going to Menu > My holder.
How does the app know the day my period is due?
The app will estimate when your period is due based on the information you have
provided on your cycle length and last period.
Can I connect more than one holder?
No, you can only connect one holder to the app at a time. Please check that you have
synced all your results before connecting a new holder. To connect a new holder go to
Menu > My holder.
When you connect a new holder your old holder will automatically disconnect and you
cannot reconnect it.
What happens if I travel outside my normal time zone?
If the time on your phone is changed to local time you may find the app requests you
test twice in 24 hours or you may miss a test depending on the time difference.
What if I change my phone?
Download the Clearblue® Connected app to your new phone and sign in with your
email and password to access your data. Your holder will continue to sync results to
your new phone.

Important points you need to read before testing
1. Peak Fertility is displayed constantly for 48 hours after it first appears. The holder will
not be able to read another test while this is displayed.
2. Every woman's cycles are unique and hormone patterns differ so the number of
fertile days you see is personal to you. In a study of 87 women, this is what we saw:
Number of High Fertility days before Peak Fertility
0-4
5-9

How to take a test
Determine when to start testing
• Use the table below to determine when to start testing.
• The day your period starts (first day of full bleeding) is Day 1. Your cycle length is
the total number of days from Day 1 up to and including the day before your next
period starts.
• If your cycle length varies use the shortest cycle over the last 6 to determine when
to start testing.
How long is your cycle (days)?
Start testing on the day shown
under your cycle length.

3. If you started testing on the right day and you see more than 9 High Fertility days you
may wish to stop testing as it's unlikely that you will see Peak Fertility this cycle. See
Q4.
4. Only test once a day until you see High Fertility. For reliable results you must use the
first urine after your longest sleep. When you see High Fertility you can test more
often. Drink normally and it's important not to urinate for 4 hours before testing again.
5. If you remove the battery from the holder you will not be able to use it again.
• If you don't know how long your cycle is, we recommend you wait at least one cycle
and note the length of it so you know when to start testing. If you don't want to wait
you can use the default cycle length of 28 days. You can select this on the app.
• It's important to start testing on the day shown in the table, for example if your cycle
lasts 27 days start testing on day 7.
• Always test using the first urine after your longest sleep.
