Contact Period Tracker Period Calendar Support

I don’t mind ads in free apps, but there has to be a limit to how intrusive they are. This app has ads that takes up the entire screen and forces you to watch a video that can lasts anywhere from 10 seconds to a few minutes. You can’t close it out until you watch the entire thing. The option to close the full screen ad doesn’t exist until after you’re forced to watch the video. There has been a few times that the ad isn’t even in English and you have no idea which button to hit in order to close it since one button will be what closes the ad, the second button takes you to a shady website. The button isn’t in English so I accidentally went to a shady website a few times. It really looks like malware. It is extremely intrusive. I don’t mind an ad that is somewhere in the app itself that doesn’t bother the user, but forcing you to watch a video ad is very annoying. This app makes me believe there might be potential malware hidden in here.

I love this app compared to others. I’ve been using it over a year and it’s come a long way but I do feel like it’s lacking very basic functionality that would make it easier to use. My biggest pet peeve that prevents me from using it EVERY SINGLE DAY is that I can’t copy and paste the days. If I take my medicine everyday and I miss a few it’s a pain. I have to manually go in and select each one everyday. I don’t have the option of adding multiple pills unless it’s already set up in the settings that way. The options provided for birth control are confusing and there’s little room for variability. The graphics are a little lackluster. I wish they would add an actual mood calendar to the calendar and it can be color coded for how good the days are… not just icons. The notes are just blah. Idk. It’s not terrible. The information they’ve started providing is really nice. I’ve had 3 phones since I used this app and syncing is super easy. I really appreciate how far it’s come, I just think it has some more to go.

—- Update after dev response —- Mainly the ads I was discussing are the ones that pop up (take up the whole screen) and are in a different language so I can’t exit out of them (no exit button) and it shows two option buttons (again in another language). Finally I took a chance and clicked a button and it exited out. My fear here is what site the other button would point to so I checked and it was fine. I’d say I prefer the ads that are in between sections of the calendar instead of the ones that pop up but I am guessing those bring more revenue. In any case, like the dev rightly said, I can just pay if I don’t want ads! ————— While I love the calendar, options to add notes, reminders about my period, the ads are just getting to be too much. I cannot exit out of them most times. I want to go in and check when I had my period or if I am ovulating and it’s a 5 minute ordeal unless I give up. I get the need for ads I do, and I have had this app for years, but the way they do ads has changed and it’s so disruptive and really makes the app unusable. Will seriously be considering going to back to just writing stuff down myself or another app.
