Palm Edition of the Hormonal Forecaster

For years the Hormonal Forecaster has been delivering the best fertility features and highest ovulation prediction reliability available. Now it is possible to take its computational expertise beyond your desktop PC in the form of a new Palm ovulation tool. With the introduction of the Hormonal Forecaster Palm and Pocket PC editions, users can now enjoy the convenience of a handheld portable application without sacrificing the advanced features and ovulation prediction techniques of the famous desktop version.

The HFC Palm Edition is a specially designed version of the Hormonal Forecaster that is optimized to run on handheld personal digital assistants (PDAs). It has been designed for the Palm OS platform and requires a device with Palm OS version 3.0 or higher. While the handheld version can be used by itself, it is best when utilized alongside the desktop version of the Hormonal Forecaster. The Palm Edition allows users to enter and view data anywhere to empower them to manage their fertility with the ultimate level of convenience. By synchronizing with the desktop version, data records are updated on both devices and advanced computational results are downloaded to the handheld device to improve its overall performance and capabilities analyzing your fertility data.

By their very nature, handheld devices require a different design approach than desktop programming. The Palm Edition has been designed accordingly to limit battery drain and computational time on your device. This is made possible by performing some data management and analysis using the desktop version and transferring the results back during synchronization. Fertility and ovulation predictions are more roughly approximated on the handheld device, but data entry remains unrestricted. This permits one to enter personal indicators of fertility and view corresponding ovulation charts and fertility graphs. By synchronizing fertility and personal records with the desktop version, one can analyze their fertility with an even higher degree of confidence due to the expanded analysis of the traditional desktop application. Even by itself, the Hormonal Forecaster Palm Edition's computational capabilities are extremely impressive.
