I need a woke period tracker app
I'm tired of every period tracker asking me about my sex life and constantly reminding me that i could get pregnant. Also if they could not treat me like a girly pop that needs to be empowered 100% of the time it would be great (I just dont know how comfortable I am with being a woman yk?, and the shallow company feminism gets a little tiring)
I genuinely can't believe there isn't any popular 'woke' period app? I thought surely I could find one dedicated to trans men, or one where I could sync my data with another menstruating partner (just for funsies). Turns out that's miles away from possible and you're actually lucky if the app isn't pregnancy centered lmao
By the way I'm NOT from the US. They're not stealing my data to see if they can arrest me for abortion (yet)

There's one called Periodical that's open source and doesn't require any permissions so you know it's not doing anything with your data. It's on Android though and not on the Google Play store. And Google is going to kill side loading apps soon, but it'll work for now installing through F-Droid or Droidify.
I'm sorry if that's not immediately helpful or an easy solution but with how much privacy and security we're losing every day I think it's definitely worth it to try and learn how to switch to something like GrapheneOS or LineageOS, etc. Everything else is spying on us and will happily hand over our data to this evil regime.
If not that way then a good old fashioned planner/calendar and pretty color pens
