imagining rip!mc noticing her period’s late and not thinking anything of it and then like a month goes by and Suguru notices she hasn’t been using her pads/tampons and when he asks she’s like “oh yeah I haven’t had my period in a bit” and Suguru begins having an internal meltdown (positive) about babies

living with stsg is like living in a surveillance state your period is 4 days late and geto tells you that he noticed your stack of pads in the bathroom hasn't been touched. is everything okay? how do you feel? is it stress? the last time you were late was 2 months ago by 3 days and he's worried ^-^

#no need for a period tracker app #ims orry the 'internal meltdown (positive)' is sending me #geto having an internal meltdown: ^_^ #poly au

Black Cherry Ice Cream Tracker

So, I know a lot of people right now are concerned about privacy, especially around period trackers. Being able to track your period is pretty important for all sorts of health reasons, but obviously that data could be used against you in certain situations.

So! I made an "Ice Cream" tracker - a small, completely offline app that lets you track your periods (and also ice cream) in a non-explicit way. The data is stored locally on your device and is automatically deleted when you delete the app. There's no online functionality at all expect the initial download and updates from Google Play (sorry iPhone users, I don't have an apple dev account yet).

I went out of my way to make it as backward compatible as possible (it's been tested down to Android 9) and I used machine translation so it's available in the following languages:

Chinese (Simplified)

French (France)

German

Indonesian

Italian

Japanese

Portuguese (Brazil)

Spanish (Spain)

Spanish (Latin America)

Thai

The app currently uses the language settings on the device, but I might add some user settings later, in which case I'll add a language select option.

It also shows you your next expected period and a general fertility window (awkwardly phrased as a "possible messy time" because making that not explicit was harder than expected).

It's currently available here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anonymous.BlackCherry

I'd love some feedback (especially on the translations - I checked them as best I could, but I'm only fluent in English).

I have no intention of ever adding monetisation. I might not be able to add features to it quickly, but I want it to be free forever to whoever finds it useful.

I don’t know if it’s already been said on here but here’s this info:

“Anyways, here's an article that spells out exactly how the data you provide on an app is legally able to be sold to third parties, and that your state can access this information w/o your knowledge or consent”

using physical calendars and pen & paper hasn’t worked for me since my periods are so unpredictable. my brain fog also has me constantly forgetting to mark everything down. i don’t want to given the state of reproductive health in the united states, but I’m going to try a period tracking app again.

has anyone used the app stardust? or are there better alternatives that absolutely won’t sell your data?

#period tracker #stardust #I just got stardust and like it but a lot of these apps when they claim they won’t sell your data they do #txt #personal

DO NOT USE STARDUST

Stardust is being listed as a safe period/fertility tracker IT IS NOT.

End to end encryption is great in the moment you are inputting data, but the data is still stored on a database with Stardust. This means the government can show up and request the data.

"but, the data is encrypted in the database!"

Okay, but who has the decryption ability? Stardust. Who can the government get it from if they get the warrent? Stardust.

Not only that, but Stardust claims an "encryption wall". This doesn't exist, it's not a real term. The cyber security teams who have built modern encryptions don't even know what this is supposed to mean and that is HIGHLY SUSPECT AND MISLEADING.

Stardust is marketed to sound great unless you know cyber security and how computers work.

Many people in the information security field are trying to raise awareness. Feel free to look into this thread with Kenn White, a HUGE cryptography and encryption name, and other cyber security people, essentially saying if data is stored off the device, E2EE (end to end encryption) is useless. (They tend to use acronyms, so Google is your friend)

ALTERNATIVE PERIOD TRACKERS?

Drip:

Yes, awful name, but Drip is built so the creators never have your data, only your phone has your data.

The code is open source, which means you can look at all the code yourself through the gitlab link. It means this is just code you can use on your phone, NOT a company storing data or making money. It is made to let you track safely. This is their privacy policy

You can even lock the app so it can be double password protected.

Why does this work instead of Stardust? Drip never had your data. If the government gets a warrent to collect your data from Drip, drip has nothing on you.

At the moment Drip (since it is so new in response to Roe v Wade), is only on Android BUT has a notification sign up as they plan to release on Apple soon. PLEASE take a look, it is on the app store as well.

TLDR:

Stardust is not a safe period tracker.

Drip is a safer alternative.

Do not use stardust.app

If they are subpoenaed, they will hand over your information.

Me deep in my depression era going hypothetically if I did have money, shouldn't I go get treatment meds/therapy

And out of nowhere, the long lost voice of an extremist anti goverment conspirator went nah with the way the economy is right now, you don't want to have any of your personal informations and issues on record anywhere

#Like it's a thing now to seek treatment and be open about it #Instead of back then when mental health issues were not real and you have to wallow in yourself like your parents and their parents did #Until you strongarmed yourself into carrying on #Which I am very grateful is a thing of the past #But how is it that anti goverment conspiracies have come back with a resurgence #Cause like I saw a few days ago that several period tracker apps are now openly selling your information to the goverment #Like literal drug informants for the goverment to then track who is pregnant and/or having abortions #And now they're coming for no fault marriages #Next is taking away voting from everyone who doesn't look like them #And well #They've always had their foot on the neck of everything lgbt #So there's going to be escalation on that #And I am very sure the next thing is gonna be mental health issues #And it's like if I #A 20 year old something can see this everyone can so how are they getting away with starting this

#I don't want randos fighting with me this but like #'my period tracker wants to know what state I'm in' is VASTLY VASTLY more likely to be about data privacy laws than anything nefarious #a bunch of states have new data privacy laws and they all differ #and COUGH COUGH most of the period tracker apps make FAT CASH selling/sharing your data #am i saying there's 0.0% chance that it's got bad intentions behind it? No because capitalism never ceases to amaze me #but I'd wager there's like a 98% chance this is about data they're allowed to SELL vs anything else
