Typeday doesn’t collect any of your data. What you enter stays on your iPhone, in the backup location you choose yourself, and — if you turn on iCloud Sync — in your own iCloud. We don’t run a server and can’t see your data.
Data We Collect
None. Typeday needs no account, has no ads, and uses no analytics, tracking tools or third-party SDKs. The app never sends what you enter over the internet, and it doesn’t ask for access to your location, contacts, camera, microphone or photo library. The only exception is App Lock: when you turn it on, iPhone asks once whether Typeday may use Face ID.
Where Your Data Is Stored
Data in the app: your routines, events, tasks, categories, check-offs and settings are stored in Typeday’s own folder on this iPhone (the widgets read from there too). Daily copies from the last 7 days are kept automatically in case a file gets damaged.
Widgets and the Lock Screen: widgets read data directly from this iPhone, never over the internet. Widgets or the weekly wallpaper on your Lock Screen show your items even while iPhone is locked, so decide for yourself whether to use them.
iCloud Sync (optional, Full Version): once you turn it on in ⋮ → iCloud Sync, the app’s data is stored in the private iCloud database (CloudKit) of your own Apple Account, so iPhones, iPads and Macs signed in to that account stay in sync. Apple keeps this data and only devices signed in to your Apple Account can read it; we can’t access it. Item contents are stored in encrypted fields, so if you turn on Advanced Data Protection for iCloud, not even Apple can read them. Turning sync off doesn’t delete the data in iCloud; to delete it, go to Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Account Storage → Typeday on your iPhone.
Auto Backup: once you turn it on, the app saves a backup file every day to the folder you pick in Files and keeps the last 30. If you choose iCloud Drive, the backups are stored in your own iCloud account and kept by Apple; we can’t access them.
Export and import: files are written or read only when you tap Export or Import. Where a file goes and who you share it with is up to you.
Backups and exports aren’t encrypted: they are plain text files (JSON), so anyone who gets the file can read it. Keep them safe.
Wallpaper background: if you pick a photo for the Lock Screen weekly wallpaper, the app receives only that one photo and stores a smaller copy in the app. It can’t see the other photos in your library.
iPhone backups: your iPhone’s iCloud or computer backups may include this app’s data, handled according to your iPhone settings and Apple’s privacy policy.
Face ID / Touch ID Lock
With App Lock on, unlocking is verified by iOS. The app only learns whether it succeeded and never receives your face, fingerprint or passcode. App Lock protects only the app itself; widgets and the Lock Screen weekly wallpaper are drawn by iPhone and still show your items.
In-App Purchases
The Full Version is paid for through Apple’s In-App Purchase and processed by Apple. We never receive your payment details, Apple Account or name. The app only asks Apple whether this Apple Account has bought the Full Version, to decide which features to turn on. Your download and purchase history is handled by Apple under Apple’s Privacy Policy.
Crash Reports
If you turn on “Share With App Developers” in Settings → Privacy & Security → Analytics & Improvements, Apple may share crash and performance reports with us that don’t identify you. We use them only to fix bugs. Sharing is your choice in iPhone Settings, and you can turn it off at any time.
External Links
Links you add to items open in Safari or the matching app. Once opened, those websites or apps are covered by their own privacy policies.
Deleting Your Data
Items you delete in the app are removed from your iPhone.
Deleting Typeday deletes all of its data, including the data used by the widgets and the daily copies.
Backup files in the folder you chose aren’t removed when you delete the app. If you don’t need them, delete them yourself in the Files app.
If you used iCloud Sync, the data in iCloud isn’t removed when you delete the app either; delete it in Settings → [your name] → iCloud → Manage Account Storage → Typeday.
We have never received your data, so there is nothing for us to provide, change or delete. Your data is entirely under your control.
Children
Typeday doesn’t collect data from anyone, including children.
Changes to This Policy
If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and its “Last updated” date. If the app adds a feature that changes how data is handled, we’ll update this policy before it ships and mention it in the app’s release notes.
