Mooneva Cycle: The private period tracker that never sees your data

    Mooneva is a private period tracker built from the ground up for offline-first, no-account menstrual health tracking. Every month, millions of women share intimate health data with apps that upload it to corporate servers — where it can be sold, breached, or subpoenaed. Mooneva works differently: all data stays on your device, always.

    Mooneva is 100% free, offline, and open-source. We do not sell your cycle history, we do not have servers, and we cannot read your encrypted backups. To keep this standard alive, we rely entirely on the community we protect.

      Genuinely thank you for sharing, @kfwyre! My wife was just complaining about how her current app has never recovered from her not having a cycle while she was pregnant (duh) — it still seems to be weighting all of her estimates as if she had a single nine month cycle. But the privacy landscape for these apps is miserable!

    There's also the German alternative Drip. I believe it's the same premise and originally created by someone fed up with the at the time options available.

      This is the one my wife has been using, but it got completely messed up by her first pregnancy and now all of its estimates are wildly off. Seems like it's somehow acting as if she actually had a single, mine month long cycle, and there doesn't seem to be any way to correct it!

        Not personally used it but apparently the dev is (was) responsive on GitHub?

        Good to see there's more options in this space for those that need it! Given how such information could unfortunately be used against users of non privacy focused one when data is inevitably sold on.
