Logging in Plum is meant to take a few seconds. Home asks one question a day, the answer is a handful of taps, and that is the whole routine. Everything below is what to do when you want more than that, whether it is fixing last Tuesday or cutting the list down to the four things you actually care about.
One thing surprises people who come from a journalling app. Plum records a day as choices, not sentences. There is no free-text box, so the record you build is a set of tick boxes that Plum can count and chart. That is what makes patterns show up in insights, and it is why the list of what you track is worth a minute of setup.
Period days are the part worth getting right. They are what Plum predicts from, so a missed start date moves your next expected period and a stray one moves it the other way. If you are bringing history over from another app, the Clue import fills those dates in for you.
Step by step
- Answer the card on Home. Home asks whether there is anything to note today and shows the things you track as tappable options. Pick what applies and tap Save. Add more opens the full list for that day.
- Use the calendar for any other day. Open Calendar and tap the date you want. The day opens for editing, you change what you like, and Save writes it. Clear all empties that day.
- Choose what you actually want to see. Open Me, then Customize tracking. Search or scroll the list, tap anything to add or remove it, and Save. Only what you keep here appears when you log.
- Check that your period days are right. Period days drive every prediction Plum makes, so they matter more than the rest. A day you marked by mistake comes off the same way you put it on.
