What changes in practice

Age and starting point matter

Clue’s official guidance says users under 16 need a parent or guardian’s permission and help with privacy settings, while US users under 13 cannot use the app. Soso is built around the earlier first-period journey.

Privacy is not a zero-sum claim

Clue has a credible privacy position. Soso should win on age-appropriate simplicity and family context, not by making a vague privacy attack.

Frequently asked questions

Can someone under 13 use Clue?

In the United States, Clue says users under 13 cannot use the app. Its guidance also says users under 16 need parent or guardian permission and help with privacy settings; rules can vary by location.

Which is simpler for a first period?

Soso reduces the experience to puberty, first periods, and early cycle tracking. Clue offers more analysis and more life-stage modes.
