The short answer: Mori never asks you to create an account. No email, no phone number, no password, no "sign in to continue". You install it, open it, and the calendar is ready — the first thing you can do is mark a period, not fill in a form.

What "no account" actually means here

Most apps that advertise "private" or "offline" still require a sign-up — the account is what lets them store your data on their servers. Mori has no sign-up flow at all, in any screen, for any feature:

The one optional exception: encrypted cloud sync. If you ever want a backup or a second device, that feature needs an email to create a sync account — a separate, opt-in system that costs US$3.99 once. The rest of the app never knows it exists.

Why other trackers need your email

An account isn't just friction — it's the anchor for a data business. With a login, your cycle history can be tied to a persistent identity across devices and, depending on the company, used for personalization, analytics or advertising profiles. That's how free apps with accounts stay free.

Mori removes the account instead of promising to behave nicely with one. There's no user database to breach, no profile to sell, and no way for period records to be linked to an identity — because no identity was ever collected.

The honest trade-off

No account means no automatic cloud backup. If your phone dies without sync or an export, records are gone — that's the price of the data never existing anywhere else. Mori gives you two ways around it: structured export you can store wherever you trust, and optional encrypted sync for people who want recovery without a traditional account relationship.

If cross-device sync for free is a must-have, an account-based app is genuinely more convenient. Mori is for people who'd rather own the trade-off than accept the account.

FAQ

Do I really never need an email?

Correct — recording, predictions, export and deletion all work without any email. The single exception: if you voluntarily turn on encrypted cloud sync, an email is needed to create that sync account. It stays optional forever.

What happens if I lose my phone?

Without sync there is no server copy — that is the trade-off of true no-account design. Mori's structured export lets you back up your records anywhere you like, and optional sync (US$3.99, once) covers device loss if you want it.

Can I delete my data without an account?

Yes. Deletion works locally: single entries, categories, or everything including derived predictions, caches and reminder schedules — no support ticket, no waiting period.
