Mawu is a private period tracker built around one idea: your cycle data is nobody's business but yours. No account. No cloud. No tracking. No analytics. No third-party SDKs. Every entry ā period dates, symptoms, notes ā stays on your device. Always. There's no server to leak it, no company to sell it, no "anonymized" dataset to be re-identified later. Delete the app and the data is gone with it. WHAT YOU GET ⢠Cycle calendar with phase predictions ⢠Period and symptom logging ⢠Insights into cycle length, regularity, and patterns ⢠A clean, distraction-free interface WHO IT'S FOR You, if you've ever closed a period tracker because it asked you to create an account, accept marketing emails, or share data with "trusted partners." You, if you've ever hesitated before logging something honest because you didn't know where it would end up. WHAT'S NOT IN MAWU ⢠No accounts ⢠No login ⢠No subscriptions ⢠No ads ⢠No analytics ⢠No social features ⢠No "AI insights" trained on your body Just a period tracker. The way it should have always been.

Period Tracker is a calm, private way to understand your cycle ā built so your most personal data never leaves your phone. PRIVATE BY DESIGN ⢠Everything you log is encrypted on your device. ⢠No account. No sign-up. No cloud. ⢠We can't read your data ā not even us. ⢠Delete everything in one tap, anytime. TRACK IN SECONDS ⢠Log your period, flow, symptoms, and moods ā your way. ⢠Three logging styles: quick, step-by-step, or all-at-once. ⢠A clean calendar shows your period, fertile window and ovulation. PREDICTIONS YOU CAN UNDERSTAND ⢠See your next period with an honest confidence range ā never false certainty. ⢠Tap "why" to see exactly how a prediction was made. ⢠Built to handle irregular cycles, PCOS and perimenopause without pretending every cycle is 28 days. INSIGHTS, ON YOUR DEVICE ⢠Average cycle and period length, variability, and your recent cycles. ⢠Spot your most common symptoms. ⢠All computed locally ā nothing is uploaded. GENTLE REMINDERS ⢠Optional, on-device reminders before your period or to log your day. ⢠Discreet by default ā no cycle details on your lock screen. PEACE OF MIND ⢠Optional Face ID / Touch ID app lock. ⢠No ads, ever. Period Tracker is for tracking and education. It is not a medical device and does not provide medical advice or contraception guidance.
