How a free period tracker app pays its bills
Here is what pays for Her Good Days.
Her Good Days is free because an optional shop of physical wellness products pays for it.
The shop is a separate service with no access to your health logs, it never appears because of a symptom you logged, and it is switched off completely in teen mode.
What pays for it
The app has a small shop that lists physical wellness products. It sits in one quiet row at the end of the Today screen, the same row for everyone, and in its own place in the app.
The rules that keep the shop in its lane
- No access to health data. The shop is a separate service. It cannot read symptoms, cycle days, weight, medication or notes.
- No symptom-triggered offers. Logging a hot flash or a bad night never makes a product appear.
- Outside personalization. The rules that pick your Today cards and Log items cannot name a product or the shop.
- Nothing for under-18s. Teen mode has no shop, no shop notifications and no marketing consent.
- Shop notifications only if you opt in. They are off unless you turn them on.
What "free" covers
All of it: symptom, cycle, sleep, mood, food, water and habit tracking, the weekly summary, the PDF report for your doctor, reminders, and the workout programs. Nothing on that list will move behind a paywall later, because there is no paid tier to move it to.
