Sync Period tracks cycles locally and supports private sharing with a partner or friend. Log periods, symptoms, moods, and notes; view your calendar and pattern summaries; set optional reminders; and import supported Flo, Clue, Drip, or generic CSV data after reviewing what Sync can recognize. Your cycle history is encrypted on your device. Private predictions adapt to your recent cycle history and confirmed corrections entirely on your device. Sync shows a likely-start window and confidence level, learns recurring pre-period patterns, and can use an enabled BBT signal or positive ovulation test without uploading those health details. Predictions become more cautious when history is sparse or variable. Partner sharing is optional and off by default. You choose which supported cycle details to share. Updates are end-to-end encrypted and require the complete private invite to open. Each encrypted relay update expires after no more than 30 days; active sharing renews that rolling expiration when a new update is published. Recent physical symptoms and flow, sex-drive and intimacy check-ins, and moods are three separate opt-ins that can each be turned off again. Intimate sharing is off by default and never indicates consent. Discharge, medications, written notes, and other sexual details remain private. Sync Period has no ads, no behavioral analytics SDKs, and no required account. You can export a private backup or permanently delete local app data at any time. Cycle predictions and pattern summaries are estimates. Sync Period does not provide diagnosis, contraception, or medical advice.
Mirelya

Mirelya is the private journal for your menopause. Two minutes a day to log hot flashes, sleep, mood and symptoms - and finally see what’s really going on. • “I’m having one” button: log a hot flash in one tap, from the widget, Control Center, the Action button, or by saying “Siri, hot flash in Mirelya” • Your daily flower: each petal is a symptom, each ember a hot flash – your month becomes a garden • Guided breathing to help the wave pass • Your nights with Apple Watch: Mirelya reads your sleep from Health, shows when your nights were broken (and whether your heart was racing), and lets you log night sweats in one tap • Prepare for your appointments: note your questions as they come (even with Siri), get a reminder two days before with a summary since your last visit, then note what was decided to follow its effect • Mild, moderate or severe hot flashes, on the scale used in clinical trials: your doctor reads the measures they know • A count of days without a period (the 12-month milestone), and a flag for bleeding worth mentioning to your doctor • 100% private: no account, no server, your journal never leaves your iPhone, Face ID lock, CSV export Mirelya Plus: is your treatment working? Mark the start of HRT, a dose change or cutting out coffee, and Mirelya compares the 4 weeks before with the weeks after, week by week – a result to show your doctor. Describe your day and Mirelya fills in the journal, ask your journal questions in plain language (Apple’s on-device AI, 100% on your iPhone), correlations (alcohol, stress, caffeine…), when your hot flashes happen, 30/90-day trends, a summary written on your iPhone by Apple’s on-device intelligence, and a PDF report to bring to your doctor. Works with iOS 18 and later. “Ask your journal” and the summary written by Apple’s on-device intelligence require iOS 26 and an iPhone or iPad that supports Apple Intelligence; on other devices, the summary is offered in a simpler form. Mirelya is not a medical device and does not replace medical advice.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Sync at none against Mirelya's 3. Sync also leads on iOS requirement (15.1 vs 18.0). Mirelya's advantage is update cadence (daily vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
