Your cycle data should not feel trapped in an app
You have spent nights collecting temperature data, logging symptoms and building up a picture of your cycle. It is reasonable to want to take that information with you, whether you are showing a GP or fertility clinic, keeping your own backup or comparing cycles outside the app.
Tempdrop gives you a few different ways to do that. You can export raw data as a CSV, save a chart as a PDF, share from your phone and, depending on your device, connect selected data with Apple Health or Health Connect.

How to export your Tempdrop data as a CSV
A CSV is the useful, slightly unglamorous option if you want the underlying data rather than a pretty chart. In the Tempdrop app, go to:
Menu → My Account → Data Management → Export
Tempdrop emails the CSV export to the email address linked to your account. The raw-data export includes your temperature data and can be useful if you want to analyse it in a spreadsheet, keep a backup or use another charting tool.
If the thought of a spreadsheet makes your eyes glaze over, you probably want the PDF option instead.
How to save your Tempdrop chart as a PDF
A PDF is usually the friendlier format when another human being needs to look at your cycle rather than analyse rows of data.
From the Chart screen, tap the share icon in the top-right corner, select PDF, choose the month and display options you want, then save or send it using your phone's normal share menu.
That can be particularly handy if you want to bring a readable chart to an appointment without handing somebody a spreadsheet and hoping for the best.
What can you actually share?
Tempdrop displays your registered temperature to the hundredth of a degree on the chart, and you can choose Fahrenheit or Celsius.
You can share or keep your information in whichever format suits the job:
- CSV export for raw, machine-readable data
- PDF chart for a visual cycle record
- your phone's share menu for quickly saving or sending that PDF
There is no single “best” format. The useful question is who needs the information and what will be easiest for them to understand.
What about Apple Health and Health Connect?
If you already keep other health information on your phone, it can be useful to have selected cycle data in the same wider health record.
iPhone users can connect Tempdrop with Apple Health, while Android users can use Health Connect. Tempdrop's newer guidance says both platforms can import selected data types from the Tempdrop app.
The exact sync behaviour depends on your operating system, app versions and the permissions you choose to grant. Our Tempdrop, Apple Health & Health Connect guide explains that setup in more detail.
A quick privacy check before you share
Cycle and fertility data can be very personal. Before sending a chart, connecting another health platform or uploading a CSV somewhere else, it is worth asking three simple questions: who is receiving it, why do they need it and how much do they actually need?
You do not have to share your entire cycle history just because an export button exists. Share what is useful for the purpose and use a secure method where you can.
For a fuller look at this, see our guide to cycle-data privacy and Tempdrop.
Which format should you use?
CSV
Best for: analysing, archiving or using another charting tool.
Why: it gives you machine-readable data rather than a visual chart.
Best for: sending a readable cycle chart to a clinician or keeping a visual record.
Why: it is designed to be viewed and shared easily.
Phone share menu
Best for: saving or sending your PDF quickly.
Why: it uses the sharing options already built into your phone.
Apple Health or Health Connect
Best for: placing selected Tempdrop data alongside other health records.
Why: the connection is permission-based and platform-dependent.

Exporting and sharing Tempdrop data: quick answers
Can I export all my Tempdrop data?
Tempdrop supports CSV export. The amount and type of information available can depend on your app version and account history.
Can I save my Tempdrop chart as a PDF?
Yes. Use the share icon from the Chart screen, choose PDF and then select the month and display options you want.
Can my doctor read the CSV?
Possibly, but a PDF chart is often easier to review visually. If you are sharing data with a GP, fertility specialist or other clinician, ask which format they prefer.
Does Tempdrop connect to Apple Health?
Yes, on iOS. The exact data that syncs depends on your settings, permissions and current app behaviour.
Does Tempdrop connect to Health Connect?
Yes, on Android. The exact behaviour depends on your permissions and app versions.
Should I share my raw cycle data?
Only share what is necessary for the reason you are sharing it, and use a secure method where possible.
The bottom line
Your Tempdrop information is not locked inside the app. Use CSV when you want the underlying data, PDF when you want a readable chart, and health-platform connections when you want selected information alongside your wider health record. If you are sharing it with a healthcare professional, choose the format that helps them understand your cycle in context.
