Tech > Services & Software > Mobile Apps Announced at WWDC 2026, Apple's Health app will support cycle tracking for menopause and perimenopause. This is why it matters. Apple announced the cycle-tracking updates it’s making to the Health app at WWDC 2026. Along with a new Siri and macOS Golden Gate, Apple announced at its Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on Monday that its Health app’s cycle tracking will support both menopause and perimenopause — not just fertility and the menstrual period. Plus, if your logged cycle patterns suggest that you may be experiencing perimenopause, you’ll be notified, prompting an important conversation with your doctor. However, it should be noted that this cycle deviation notification specific to perimenopause is only for users age 40 and over, and shouldn’t be seen as a replacement for your doctor’s diagnosis and treatment.
