(www.newsweek.com)
A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Fwiw, this article says the name of the app is Clue. As a dude, I have no need of such an app, but as a security minded individual, will encourage my female friends to use it if needed and hope the developers continue to have security in mind.
And as a Virginian, I will once again vote against the enemy of security and privacy: Glenn Youngkin.
There are foss offline period tracking apps you can reccommend instead. Best if they just don't have the data at all

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
