Dotted is a calm, beautiful period and cycle tracker that keeps your data completely private โ and is genuinely helpful in the moment. Private by design โข Everything stays on your phone, encrypted. No account, no servers, no tracking. โข No ads. No data selling. Free, always. โข Move your data between phones with a passphrase-encrypted backup โ nothing ever touches a server. Predictions that adapt to you โข Learns your own rhythm from your last cycles โ shown as honest ranges, never a fake exact day, and widening when your cycles vary. โข Estimates ovulation from your own ovulation tests and cervical-mucus logs, so it doesn't just assume "day 14." โข Personal symptom patterns: when cramps tend to hit, when PMS usually shows up. In the moment โข A big cramp-relief button with quick, evidence-based relief and craving swaps. โข Tap any day to log flow, pain, mood, energy, sleep and more โ in one quick screen. โข A cycle wheel, a phase-colored calendar, and home-screen widgets. Gentle reminders, your way โข Phase changes, period due/late, PMS, fertile window, pill, daily check-in โ each toggleable, scheduled locally on your device. Dotted's predictions are estimates, not contraception or medical advice.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Grace45 at none against Dotted's 3. Dotted's advantage is update cadence (every 5 days vs every 5 weeks). On price, ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
