Routine PlannerThe short version
Routine Planner has no accounts, no login and no server of ours. Your morning plans, checklists, wake-up times and settings are written to your own iPhone and stay there. We cannot read them, because they are never sent to us. We do not use analytics, we do not show ads, and we do not sell or share anything about you.
There is no "delete my data" request to make, because there is no copy of your data to delete. Removing the app from your phone removes everything it stored.
What stays on your phone
All of the following is stored only in the app's own storage on your device:
- Your morning plans — wake-up time, leave-by time and checklist items
- Your settings, including reminder times and your every-morning items
- The answers you gave during the app's setup questions
- Any addresses you enter for the traffic feature
- A local note of whether your subscription is active, so the app works offline
None of it is transmitted to us, and none of it is backed up to a server we control. It may be included in your own iPhone or iCloud device backup, which is under your control and governed by Apple's terms, not ours.
What leaves your phone
Three things reach the outside world, all of them to run a feature you asked for. Nothing else does.
| What is sent | Where it goes | Why |
|---|---|---|
| An address you type into the traffic feature | Apple's geocoding service | To turn the written address into map coordinates. Handled by iOS itself. |
| Two sets of map coordinates | TomTom | To check how much traffic is currently adding to that route. The written address is never sent — only coordinates. |
| Subscription and receipt information | Apple and RevenueCat | To take payment and to confirm your subscription is active. |
The traffic feature
This only runs if you choose to enter a home address and a destination. If you skip that step, or clear those fields in Settings, nothing is ever sent for it. The app does not use your device's GPS or ask for location permission — it works from the two addresses you typed and nothing else, so it has no idea where you actually are.
Subscriptions
Payment is handled entirely by Apple; we never see your card details, and we never receive your name, email address or Apple ID. We use RevenueCat to confirm whether a subscription is active. RevenueCat assigns your installation a random, anonymous identifier and receives purchase details from Apple. You can read RevenueCat's privacy policy and Apple's privacy policy.
Notifications
Every reminder the app sends — the evening nudge, the wake-up checklist, the leave-in-ten warning — is scheduled by the app on your own device. There is no push server, and no notification token is created or sent anywhere. If you decline notification permission, the rest of the app still works; you simply won't be reminded.
What we never do
- No accounts, logins or passwords
- No analytics, tracking pixels, advertising or advertising identifiers
- No selling, renting or sharing of personal information
- No profiling, and no use of your data to train anything
- No access to your contacts, photos, calendar, microphone or camera
- No collection of your GPS location
Children
The app is made for adults running a household and is not directed at children. We do not knowingly collect information from anyone, children included — there is no mechanism in the app by which we could.
Your choices
- Stop the traffic checks: clear both addresses in Settings.
- Stop the reminders: turn them off in Settings, or revoke notification permission in iOS Settings.
- Remove everything: delete the app. All stored data goes with it.
- Cancel a subscription: iOS Settings → your name → Subscriptions.
Changes to this policy
If the app ever starts doing something this page doesn't describe, this page will be updated before that version ships, and the date at the top will change.
