The first run
The first sign-in opens a setup of five steps. Two of them are a sentence each, and none of the answers is permanent — every one has a home in settings afterwards.
The five steps
| Step | What it asks | Skippable |
|---|---|---|
| Welcome | Nothing. It says what the app is for | — |
| About you | A display name, a preferred name, and who you are | Yes, all three |
| What matters | Which of the six areas with a switch you want | Yes — leaving it blank keeps all six |
| Reminders | Whether you want a daily nudge, and when | Yes |
| Done | Nothing. It hands you the dashboard | — |
The one answer that changes what you see
Who you are decides whether six screens appear in the menu: cycle, trying to conceive, ovulation, PCOS, menopause and breastfeeding.
Choosing Male puts those parts out of the way. Every other answer — including Prefer not to say — leaves all of them where they are.
Prefer not to say is an answer, not a blank. It is stored, it stops the app asking again, and it shows everything.
Out of the way is not gone. The menu stops listing these, anything you recorded is kept, and any of them still opens if you go to it directly. Change the answer any time on your profile, and nothing is deleted either way.
What matters
The third step lists the six areas that have a switch. Turning one off here is exactly the same switch as the one in settings, and it behaves the same way — quiet, not deleted.
You is not on that list, because You is the account rather than an area you can switch off. Sharing is not on it either: it is the one area with no switch.
Afterwards
Everything the setup asked lives in two places once you are through it:
- Profile — your names, who you are, your medical basics.
- Settings — the six area switches, reminders, appearance, and everything about your data.
Nothing in the setup is a one-time decision that cannot be revisited.
