Bring your Apple Health history. Keep your phone in charge. Leave the ecosystem lock-in behind.
Apple Health holds the cycle history you (and apps like Flo or Clue) synced into it — but it's locked to iPhone. PinkyBloom reads that history on iOS, and on Android you bring it across with an export file. Either way it stays on your phone: free, on-device, no account.
How to bring your Apple Health history across
On iPhone: import from Apple Health
Open PinkyBloom on iOS and allow it to read your cycle data from Apple Health. It pulls the period history Apple Health holds — including data Flo, Clue, or Apple's own Cycle Tracking synced there — on-device, with no re-entry.
On Android: export your Apple Health data first
Apple Health is iPhone-only, so on your iPhone open Health → tap your profile photo → Export All Health Data. You'll get a zip containing export.xml. Send that file to your Android phone (email, Drive, or cable).
On Android: import the export file
Open PinkyBloom on Android, choose Import from Apple Health export, and pick the export.xml file. PinkyBloom reads your cycle history from it on-device — nothing is uploaded.
What comes over, and what stays behind
No surprises. Here's exactly what moves with you.
Comes with you
- Period start & end dates from Apple Health
- Cycle history Flo, Clue & others synced into Apple Health
- Symptom and flow entries Apple Health stored
- On iPhone: a direct import, no export file needed
Left behind
- Being locked to a single ecosystem
- The need to stay on iPhone to keep your history
- Any cloud copy — your data stays on the device
- Any of it being readable by us
Why bring your history to PinkyBloom
Not opinion — the documented record.
Apple Health is iPhone-only — there's no server API and no bridge to Android's Health Connect. If you switch to Android, the history you built in Apple Health can't follow you on its own.
PinkyBloom runs on both iOS and Android, so it can be the bridge Apple structurally can't offer: import on iOS today, or carry an Apple Health export across to Android.
Whether you import on iPhone or from an export file on Android, your cycle history is read on your phone. There's no PinkyBloom server to upload it to.
PinkyBloom is free forever with no account and no ads. Every life stage — periods through perimenopause and menopause — is included.
