It's 2024. People still assume apps installed on their phones aren't siphoning every single 1 and 0 on your phone including your texts and recordings of your voice calls and then selling that data to a 3rd party advertising firm.
Why in FUCKS name would you put your menstrual cycle data on an app that some stranger made?
Agreed. Although I think the usefulness of the apps are aimed at tracking fertility to help people get pregnant. Which is even more scummy that they sell the data.
