This app is only available for download in the Google Play Store, is rated for users of all ages, and does feature in-app advertisements.
Period Tracker is an app that helps girls and women predict when their next period will come. It uses calendars and menstruation logs, and keeps this information handy to remember when next month’s period is due to come.
Users are asked to track when they their periods begin and end and the app uses that information to predict when a users next period will be. This tracker also notifies users as to when they’re most fertile and can show calendar dates as to when users will be at the highest risk of pregnancy.
The app has other features that users might like, such as logs for their mood, symptoms and sleep. They can enable notifications for when to take their birth control pill as well as reminders that they’re nearing their period. The app archives health symptoms and patterns, as well as the average length of their period, their fertility trends and their menstruation cycle.
For an added layer of privacy, this app also allows users to enable a password for use.
This app has an ESRB rating of E for everyone, although only girls who have started menstruating will really find value in it. Similar apps include Flo Period & Ovulation Tracker and Period Tracker Clue. It has over 100 million installs and is the number one period tracker on Google Play.
Is Period Tracker - Period Calendar Ovulation Tracker safe for my kids?
While the content of this app is safe for all ages, this app is designed for teens and women who are tracking their menstrual cycles. Boys and younger users will likely not have any use for this app.
The app is particularly useful for women trying to get pregnant, or maybe avoid getting pregnant. By just glancing at the calendar in the tracker, they can see which days of the month they have the highest chances of pregnancy. The statistics that users can record in this app are quite impressive.
Parents should know that a certain level of maturity is needed to use this app. That being said, it can be a nice tool to have on hand to teach young teens how to manage their health and menstrual cycles well.
The Period Tracker app grants users access to a community forums where people can post questions about symptoms, sex and more. This feature may not be appropriate for kids, especially since topics can get (but don’t usually) into some explicit detail. There is no age verification on the app.
For users who don’t have an Android device, the iPeriod Lite Period Tracker is a similar app on Apple devices. Overall, this app is safe for kids, but some mature content might lead parents to monitor their young teens for a bit.
