How-to guides
Everything you need to go from install to a shared household, in the order most families need it. Start anywhere — each guide stands on its own.
The guides
- Getting started
Install on iPhone or Android — or open the browser version — create the account, set up the first profile, and meet the lock screen.
- Setting up a household
Profiles, the four guardian roles, and what each one can see and do.
- Inviting someone
Two walk-throughs, one for each direction: inviting a guardian into a profile you track on, and inviting the person a profile is about to log it herself.
- Transferring ownership
Hand a profile to its subject's own account — a one-way move that keeps every entry's original attribution.
- Logging a day
Flow, spotting, tags, and notes — plus how editing and deleting work.
- Reading estimates
What the confidence labels mean, why a new profile shows no estimate yet, and what the irregular-cycles framing changes.
- Moving your data
Bring history in from Clue or your health app, and take everything out as JSON, CSV, FHIR, or a PDF.
- Using the browser version
What a browser keeps and clears, and how to share a computer safely.
Two things worth knowing first
lunarlog is built for sharing: an account is how a device joins the household and how a profile reaches the other people who care for it. And nothing leaves the device before that — you can start logging before you ever make an account, and decide later.
Whichever direction your family comes from — you tracking for yourself and inviting someone in, or someone setting a profile up for you — the guides treat both as equally normal, because both are. Neither one is the "real" way to use lunarlog.
