If anyone is in need of a more secure option in these dystopian times: drip keeps all your data on your phone. You can export the data, so you can keep the tracked data when changing phones. I only use it for tracking my cycle and sometimes symptoms though, so I can't say much about using it for birth control.

They shouldn't be collecting it in the first place, store the logs locally (and encrypted tbh) on the user's device.

Why in the fuck would the government need this information?

Why does a period tracking app even need to store the data anywhere other than locally?

tf is usa on, why they need perios statistics

But it will still disclose that data to advertising companies which WILL give it to the authorities for a nominal fee

Also, why does the app keep that data in a centralized location where it can be scooped up like that?

And more importantly, people have known that everything is spyware since the Snowden leaks, why the hell would you ever give that kind of data to an app on your phone? Even if the app was totally E2EE and private, other things on your phone do all kinds of spying

~~That's nice, but why does that data need to be on their servers in the first place?~~

Ok, so apparently they don't store the data by default. Guessing they could if the user wants it backed up or synced across devices.

Any woman on here, please consider bluemoon. My wife is tech illiterate but loves the app.

Why US gov need to know about people's period?, that's weird and creepy

Can I get a reminder about the apps that WILL share with the govt so I can help fuck with their data?

I know it's not feasible, but if a lot of males would just use the apps that are know to report to US authorities and input data, that most likely will raise a alarms, they would have to deal with heaps of false-positives and it would obscure the real data.

This is awesome, thank you for your service! Goddamn, the premises around that are just... sad.

DO NOT put this kind of information in an app!

If you absolutely have to have it in your phone, use the calendar and pick some event that's plausible monthly with a unique name so you can search on it. "Checked for Mxyzlptik updates", "Look at travel to Canada prices" or whatever.

If you need more functionality than that you'll need an offline solution. We live in a fascist dictatorship now. They hate women. And they will 100% use that information against you if they can.

It makes zero sense in keeping the data unencrypted in ang cloud. People usually don't share their cycles details on the public internet.
