There are foss offline period tracking apps you can reccommend instead. Best if they just don't have the data at all
Mensinator
Bluemoon
Drip
Add Periodical to the list. Data stored locally, and you can export it and transfer it to your new device in a .json file.
Time to start self hosting these for my friends
No self hosting needed! As I mentioned, these apps are fully offline - all data is stored on-device
Be careful with that, it could make you a target for a visit
This reminds me: In countries like Russia and China, it's not unusual for police to just randomly stop people and search their phones, at which point even locally stored data isn't safe anymore. This could happen in America as well.
