About

BroFlo

Features
Read full description

BroFlo turns her cycle into a simple daily forecast that both partners can read. It shows clear skies, a little fog, or a storm rolling in, so he knows how to show up without guessing. For her: - Enter your period start date, or connect a supported wearable if you like. A wearable is optional. - See your own forecast, with honest confidence when data is thin. - Build a Comfort Kit of the things that actually help, and choose what he can see. - Stay in control: pause sharing, remove a partner, disconnect a wearable, or delete your account at any time. For him: - See her forecast as weather, not data. You never see raw health records. - Get a heads-up the day before her phase changes. - Open her Comfort Kit to know what helps right now. Private by design: - Her data is shared only with the partner she pairs with, and only while she chooses to share. - No ads, no tracking, and no sale of data. - Free, with no purchases or subscriptions. Broflo is a wellness product. It estimates where a cycle is from the dates you enter and optional wearable trends. It does not diagnose any condition, predict fertility or ovulation, confirm pregnancy, or provide contraception. If you may be experiencing an emergency, call 911.
