How to Switch from My Calendar to Floriva

Step-by-step guide to export your data from My Calendar and start tracking privately with Floriva.

My Calendar by Abishkking is an ad-supported period tracker with cloud backup. This guide covers how to save your cycle data and move to a tracker without ads or server storage.

Before you switch

My Calendar by Abishkking is one of the more downloaded period trackers on Google Play, largely because it is free. Free in this context means ad-supported. The app displays advertising, which means third-party ad SDKs are embedded in the app and have some level of access to your device and usage data.

The specific data shared with ad networks depends on which SDKs are integrated and how they are configured. Ad-supported period trackers have a structural conflict: the product's revenue depends on advertising partners, and those partners want data about users. Your cycle data may or may not be shared directly, but your usage patterns, device identifiers, and behavioral data almost certainly are.

My Calendar also offers cloud backup, which means your cycle data can live on external servers if you enabled that feature.

Export your data from My Calendar

Open My Calendar and check the settings menu for any export, backup download, or data access option.

If you find an export function, use it. If not, and many versions of My Calendar do not offer structured export, manually record your data from the calendar view:

  • Your last 6 cycle start dates

  • Average cycle length

  • Any symptoms or notes you want to preserve

This takes 5-10 minutes and is your only option if the app does not support data export.

Set up Floriva

Install Floriva from the current download option. No ads. No account is needed for core tracking. The app is paid, which means you are the customer, not the product being sold to advertisers.

Enter your cycle start dates during onboarding. Floriva uses these to generate predictions immediately. If you have been tracking symptoms in My Calendar, configure Floriva's symptom categories to match your existing tracking routine.

Rebuild your cycle history

Our guide to rebuilding period history after switching apps covers the process. For My Calendar users, your cycle start dates are the critical data. Enter as many as you can recover. Six or more gives Floriva a strong baseline for predictions.

Symptom data is worth preserving for your own records but does not affect prediction accuracy.

Delete your My Calendar data

If you created an account or enabled cloud backup in My Calendar, you need to delete the account, not just uninstall the app.

Check the app's settings for Delete Account, Clear Data, or a similar option. If the app offers cloud backup, make sure to delete the cloud copy explicitly.

If no in-app deletion exists, contact Abishkking's support through the app store listing or their published contact email. Request deletion of all your personal data.

After taking whatever deletion steps are available, uninstall the app. Removing an ad-supported app also removes the advertising SDKs and their ongoing data collection from your device.

See our data deletion guide for more on verifying that your data is actually gone.

Quick answers to the obvious questions.

How do I switch from My Calendar to Floriva?

Record your cycle dates from My Calendar, set up Floriva with that history, then delete your My Calendar account or data.

Can I export my data from My Calendar?

My Calendar's export options are limited. Check the app's settings for backup or export. If unavailable, manually note your cycle start dates from the calendar view.

Questions people ask before they switch.

Will I lose my cycle history when I switch?

Not if you record your cycle dates first. Write down your last 3-6 cycle start dates from My Calendar's calendar view before uninstalling.

Is My Calendar safe to keep using?

My Calendar is ad-supported, which means third-party advertising SDKs have access to your device data. The app's privacy policy governs what cycle data is shared with ad networks, and ad-supported models inherently involve more third-party data access.
