My period calendar Pinkllama

first of all, this app is just amazing , like if im gonna be honest? its really accurate and helps you predict when your next period is ect, even pregnancy and it has a bunch of advanced and even customizable features to mess around with or just personalize for your own use. the only tweak i would ask for is if not everything costed money? like i get it if its not completely free but you should be able to customize it to fit your own body. If anything, the app is pretty advanced and super cute! most of the apps i have used before are either inaccurate or low quality, this one is high quality and pretty accurate if you learn how to use it right, and also, you get reminders, and notifs of your period, pregnancy ect. like your own little health buddy! to get in is also not very complicated, which i find to be my ick in other health related apps i have used before. when you first get the app, you kinda settle in, then you get the idea. But anyways! thats my take on it, and the only tweak with so many reasons i would recommend this app!

I’ve used so many different App Store apps in the past to try to track periods, I found a few good ones, but none of them were as useful, fun, informative, and good at keeping track of all the different symptoms of periods than this one! Periods have always been so difficult for me for variety of reasons. Extremely heavy flow, mood swings, anger/feeling it will never end, and horrible anxiety that things are not going the way they’re supposed to. I’m constantly worried whether the smallest thing can be a sign of TSS or anything threatening and abnormal. Pinkllama has so many fun illustrated small books on different subjects such as what things to avoid eating and what things to eat during periods, how to help calm down your anger when on your period, and information on TSS and how to prevent it along with so much more. The system for tracking the dates of each day you’re on your period and the symptoms that go along with each day is so easy to use/look back at in case you need to track how your mood/other period symptom and your period dates have changed in the past _____ amount of time. I’ve only been using it for a (relatively) small amount of time but as I have seen so far, It’s actually very very accurate at predicting when you’re next period starts/ends and sends you adorable reminders to let you know so you can prepare. On a small side note, the little graphics, colors, comforting language (in the books), and illustrations are so fun and make me so happy just to look at. This app is ABSOLUTELY WORTH it’s subscription!! LOVE IT!!!!!! 🫶🏻🫶🏻🥰🦙💕

So I love my other llama app. I have to say, pink panda was way cuter than pink llama. Also, I feel like when it was pink panda, I had the option to “start period” when my period actually started. I never even thought I’d use a period tracker app. But I have several medical conditions and a lot of doctors and they almost all want to know “when was your last menstrual cycle?”. I’ve always been irregular and I’m lucky to remember my name, so I decided to start at least trying to keep track. However, pink llama is really only a fantastically functional app for someone who is spot on schedule all of the time. And that’s not me. It’s great to know when I’m “supposed” to start- but it’s irritating and unhelpful that I can record flow when I actually start and make notes but the app is still going to tell me a week later that my period is starting and only THEN give me the legit option to start my period. Why? Why isn’t it written so that it shows when you SHOULD be due but allows the “start period” button to appear every day so that we are tracking our ACTUAL period and not expected to have another one a week later because the app just work that way? I may just have to look for another app for this is not at all useful to me as it currently functions. As I said- unless you’re someone who is extremely regular all of the time, I can’t honestly recommend this app. Unfortunately I unlocked everything as pink panda, which for some reason I felt was significantly superior. Oh well.
