We just got word that yet another personal boldily function has been molded by iPhone into an application to make your life better and better. 
This time the subject is a woman’s menstruation cycle. The app looks useful, thoughtfully planned and definately useful for women!
We figure that if the subject of a…well..bloody PERIOD is acceptable to the fine folks at Apple, then acceptance our our fabulous bladder-saving RunPee concept must be soon to find a home with the app committee folks at Apple.
Here is the Press Release all about Period Tracker. I should get this for myself.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
iPhones Used to Track Menstruation
Los Angeles, CA, June 25, 2009 – Most people use the iPhone to send
text messages and emails and browse the internet but women everywhere
have been using their iPhones to do something else – track their
menstrual periods.
Period Tracker, is a breakthrough app that has revolutionized the way
women keep track of their bodies and use their mobile phones. It has
a simple yet elegant layout with a one-touch button to log the start
of the user’s period and a countdown to the beginning of their next
one. A cute flower appears in the middle of the homepage when the app
predicts that the user is “fertile” and ovulating. And a month view
calendar helps the user see their cycles at a glance, while a notes
page allows the user to enter daily notes to indicate if they have a
“headache” or have been “intimate.”
“Period Tracker was the first app we ever came up with,” says Susan
Lee of GP Apps. “We had been married for several months when I got my
first iPhone and my husband brought up the crazy suggestion of making
an iPhone app. Having been married so recently, we were still
struggling to find a better way to keep track my periods, so we
decided to create Period Tracker.”
Period Tracker has been noticed by critics and platforms everywhere.
It has even recently won an award of a special grant by Adobe to bring
Period Tracker over to the Nokia smartphone platform.
What people are saying about the RunPee app.
Movie Watching Must Have!!
I go feral for this app. I love it so much and I wish everyone knew about it and used it. It is incredibly useful and I would be devastated if this app ever disappeared. Things I love: 1) the pee times! It’s so handy to know the best time to go and then read the synopsis of what’s happening while I’m gone. I never have to worry about missing the good bits! 2) knowing if there is a post-credits scene or not. This might be my fav feature because I would have missed out on some pretty critical scenes if it weren’t for RunPee. 3) the movie review and viewer rankings. This info has made me watch some movies that I normally wouldn’t and it’s nice seeing things outside of my usual scope. 4) that it’s a small family run business. I love shopping small and it really does feel like I’m part of the RunPee family! If you reach out to them, Dan will personally respond to you and he is so warm and helpful. GET THIS APP AND THEN SUBSCRIBE! It is absolutely worth it and you’ll be using it again and again!

“We love this app,” says David Lee. “We’ve spent so many months
developing it and improving it and we’re really proud of how it looks
and functions. We actually designed the entire app from scratch, at
times debating for days about how to make and keep the app the most
user-friendly and user-intuitive possible. We think it’s one of the
best apps out there.”
Period Tracker is currently available for the iPhone in the iTunes App
Store for just $1.99.
