Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 3, 2026
The short version: PhoneNap runs entirely on your iPhone. It has no servers, no analytics, no ads and no account. Which apps you use and for how long never leave your phone, and the developer receives none of your data.
What PhoneNap stores
Everything PhoneNap keeps is stored on your iPhone only:
- Your pet: its name, kind, outfits and mood.
- Your progress: food, gems, points, streak, streak shields and focus session history.
- Your settings: daily focus goal, daily summary time, notification and Live Activity choices.
- Your app groups and rules: limits, wait times, open limits and schedules.
This data lives in PhoneNap's private storage and in an App Group shared only with PhoneNap's own widgets and Screen Time extensions, so they can show your pet and apply your rules. It is not synced to any server. If you use iCloud or encrypted device backups, Apple may include it in your backup under Apple's privacy policy.
Screen Time data
PhoneNap uses Apple's Screen Time frameworks (Family Controls, Device Activity and Managed Settings) to pause the apps you choose and to show how long you used them.
- When you pick apps, Apple gives PhoneNap opaque tokens, not a list of the apps on your phone.
- Usage time is measured by Apple on your device. PhoneNap's report screen runs inside a sandbox Apple provides, which has no network access.
- App names and minutes are never sent anywhere, by PhoneNap or by its extensions.
You can turn off PhoneNap's Screen Time access at any time in iOS Settings, under Screen Time.
What PhoneNap does not do
- No analytics or usage tracking of any kind.
- No advertising, no advertising identifier (IDFA), no tracking across apps or websites.
- No account, no sign-in, no email or name collected inside the app.
- No location, contacts, photos, microphone or camera access.
- No third-party SDKs. No data is sold or shared with anyone.
Because nothing is tracked, PhoneNap never shows Apple's App Tracking Transparency prompt.
Notifications, widgets and Live Activity
Notifications such as the nightly summary are scheduled by iOS on your device. PhoneNap does not register for push notifications. Widgets and the focus Live Activity are drawn from the data on your phone and update on the device.
Purchases
PhoneNap Pro is sold through Apple's App Store. Apple processes the payment; PhoneNap only learns whether Pro is active. Your payment details are covered by Apple's privacy policy.
Crash reports
If you choose to share analytics with app developers in iOS Settings, Apple may send PhoneNap's developer anonymous crash reports. You control this in Settings, under Privacy & Security, Analytics & Improvements.
Deleting your data
In PhoneNap, open Settings, then Account & privacy, then Delete all data. This removes your pet, food, points and streak from your iPhone. Export my data, on the same screen, gives you a copy first. Deleting the app also deletes all of its data.
Children
PhoneNap collects no personal information from anyone, including children.
Emailing support
If you email us, we receive your email address and whatever you choose to include. We use it only to reply, and we delete the conversation when it is resolved, unless you ask us to keep it.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of PhoneNap changes what is described here, this page will be updated first and the date at the top will change. Any new data collection would be opt-in and explained in the app before it starts.
