The information you enter never leaves your phone. CareDays is for boyfriends and husbands who want to be a steadier, more thoughtful partner. Each day it gives you one small, concrete act of care matched to where she likely is in her cycle — a message to send, a meal to make, a moment to protect. It is not a period tracker and not a health app: it is about you showing up well. Built to be used openly. CareDays works best when you set it up together with her — it exists to support her, never to monitor her. WHAT YOU GET • Today's care — one thoughtful idea every day, with a gentle reminder at a time you choose • A phase guide written for partners — what may be happening, how she may feel, how to support her, and when the good moments for a conversation or a date tend to be • Her Profile — her favourite foods, drinks, small gifts and the ways she likes to receive care, so the ideas become personal • Heads-up reminders before a new phase or her period, so you can plan a calmer week • A full library of original care ideas for every phase, written in warm, everyday language PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-up, no cloud. Cycle dates, Her Profile and your settings are stored encrypted on this phone only, and you can delete everything with one tap in Settings. FREE AND PREMIUM The daily idea, the daily reminder and the phase overview are free. CareDays Premium unlocks Her Profile and personalised ideas, a second idea each day, the full library, the deeper guide (what to avoid, difficult days, insights) and the heads-up reminders. • 7-day free trial • Monthly or annual plan • Cancel anytime Every person is different. The cycle is a guide, not an explanation — the best way to know what she needs is to ask her. CareDays offers educational and relationship support, not medical advice; all dates and phases are estimates. If symptoms seem unusually severe or persistent, please encourage her to speak with a healthcare professional.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: CareDays at 100% against FutureMe's 28%. CareDays also leads on rating (5.0 vs 2.7). FutureMe's advantage is ratings volume (138 vs 3) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.1). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. FutureMe sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $9.00 per year and CareDays sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
CareDays holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: FutureMe has 138 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 28% of FutureMe's written reviews are positive against 100% of CareDays's.
FutureMe ships an update every 9 days, CareDays fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 7, 2026 and October 31, 2026 respectively.
