I’m aware, but the person I responded to specifically mentioned F-Droid, which is Android-only.
Comment on Menstrual tracking app data is a ‘gold mine’ for advertisers that risks women’s safety – report

Wrong, Apple Health fails to include a libre software license text file. We do not control it, anti-libre software. Do you believe every lie Apple tells us?

Yeah I know it’s not FOSS in the slightest, but it’s not a predatory app selling your health data to the highest bidder, presumably. I acknowledge that requires taking Apple’s word at face value though

I mean, sure - but if you really don’t trust Apple to keep their word, then it wouldn’t matter if their Health app was FOSS or not. iOS itself is still (and probably forever will be) a closed source operating system. That gives them the power to do anything, including hijack the data from FOSS apps.

Replacing the system is easy when we start with the apps and keep them across systems.
