I kept forgetting how long I had my tampon in, so I ended up building an app to solve it.
It might sound like a very niche problem, but I was constantly wondering:
“Wait… how long have I had my tampon in?”
I used to set random alarms, check the time, forget to start them, or end up doing mental math during my period.
Eventually I got tired of it and decided to build an app myself.
Mavie lets you start timers for tampons and menstrual cups, sends reminders, suggests recommended usage times based on your flow and absorbency (while still letting you customize everything), and lets you create and save your own custom timers too.
I finally launched it on the App Store this week.
This is my first app, and I’d genuinely appreciate any honest feedback—whether it’s about the product itself, the onboarding, the design, or even how I’m presenting it.
If you’re willing to try it, I’d love to hear what you think. Every piece of feedback helps me make it better.
