Cycle Technologies has released a free iOS App named DOT, which uses Dynamic Optimal Timing technology in order to help women avoid unwanted pregnancy by charting their menstrual cycle.
According to an article on MedCity News:

[The app] does what the others on the market do as well, but what makes it stand out is that it’s for those who are don’t want to get pregnant. They might not be using contraceptive methods for various reasons, but still want to be proactive about monitoring that risk.
When a woman uses DOT, she can specify from the beginning what her goals are. Based on self-reported data, notifications become available that indicate when conception rates are high, medium or low.
For someone looking to get pregnant, the notifications have a more positive connotation when probability is high, both in message and color scheme. For someone who is trying to avoid conception, the message is framed more as a warning (will show up with a red background).
