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.

There are foss offline period tracking apps you can reccommend instead. Best if they just don’t have the data at all

As they should. I hope they burn all data and figure out a way to function going forwards without storing any data

Or they could just store the data locally on the user’s device and not transmit it back to a central server, such that the company never even has possession of the data nor any way to retrieve it?

If the police search your phone then that would not protect you.

Probably a form of e2ee

That requires that you trust the app vendor not to have some sort of back door, no?
