Flo My Health: How to Turn Off the Radar (Geolocation) and Silence Notifications for Good

Your phone buzzes again. Flo My Health wants to remind you to log your mood, track your cycle, and oh—it also wants to know exactly where you are. Every. Single. Time. It’s like having a clingy friend who never leaves your side, except this friend also drains your battery and sells your data. Let’s fix that.

Why Does Flo My Health Need My Exact Location?

Flo uses geolocation to offer localized health tips, weather-based insights, and maybe to serve you ads for nearby clinics. But do you really need your period tracker to know you’re at the grocery store? Probably not. Turning off location saves battery and keeps your whereabouts private. Here’s how.

How to Revoke Geolocation Permissions on Flo My Health

On iPhone (iOS)

1. Open Settings on your iPhone.
2. Scroll down and tap Flo My Health.
3. Tap Location.
4. Select Never. (Or “While Using the App” if you want it only when active.)
5. Done. Flo no longer knows your coordinates.

On Android

1. Go to Settings > Apps > Flo My Health.
2. Tap Permissions.
3. Tap Location and choose Deny.
4. Confirm. The app can’t track you anymore.

How to Disable Notifications on Flo My Health

On iPhone (iOS)

1. Open Settings > Notifications.
2. Find Flo My Health and tap it.
3. Toggle off Allow Notifications. Or customize: disable sounds, badges, banners. Your choice.

On Android

1. Go to Settings > Apps & notifications > Flo My Health.
2. Tap Notifications.
3. Toggle off All notifications. Or fine-tune per category (e.g., keep reminders, kill marketing).

That’s it. No more pings, no more location pings. Your battery will thank you, and your privacy will too.

Now, a quick reality check: Flo’s tracking is sticky—like duct tape on arm hair. Under the California CCPA and CPRA, you have the right to opt out of the sale of your personal data. But compared to the American model, where apps often bury privacy controls in menus, Flo makes it relatively easy. Still, always check their privacy policy for data sharing practices. You’re in control—now act like it.
