Ovulation tests vs the app

Er

I use my app to let me know when my fertile/ovulation window is going to be each month and I also use the ovulation tests. I don't know if the app is wrong or if I'm simply testing at the wrong time. This is so frustrating. The ovulation tests are also very hard to read. Any advise?

So the apps said I was supposed to start fertile days yesterday.. Took an ovulation test and it told me I was at my peak fertility. So id use the test. Because as soon as I told the app I was ovulating it switched things around.

From what I've heard ovulation test are more accurate.  If you are having a hard time reading the two lines...buy the expensive clearblue digital and use with the cheaper online ones together and look at the line when you get your High and Peak to know what you are looking for.....I used both thinking I missed my peak but ending up showing hours earlier on the Clearblue...when I tested with the cheap ones later the red line was darker.  Online is real cheap so I was testing morning and after work but they say it's best to test once a day.

The more info u enter from things like ovulation tests and such the more accurate glow will become...my glow says my peak day is today (friday) but at 11:30 pm on Thursday I got a pos ovulation test and It changed my peak day to Thurs

Glow is just a prediction. Ovulation test are more accurate. Plus once you get a positive test and enter it into glow, glow will change your fertile days and percentages.
