Moodfield
Privacy Policy
In short: Moodfield collects no data from you. No account, no server, no ads, no tracking. Your check-ins stay only on your devices and, if you choose, sync with the private space in your own iCloud account. Health data is only read and never leaves your device.
What this policy covers
This policy covers the Moodfield app for iPhone and Apple Watch, made by independent developer Ahmet Kaplan, along with its widgets, its Siri and Shortcuts actions, and the moodfield.app website.
We don’t collect any data
Moodfield has no server. The app uses no analytics, advertising, crash reporting or other third-party libraries. As the developer, we can never see your check-ins, your notes or your health data. Unless you turn on iCloud sync, the app never connects to the internet.
We don’t track you across apps or websites, and we never share or sell your data, because we don’t have any.
If Share With App Developers is on for your device, Apple may send us crash reports and general usage statistics without identifying you. This is an Apple setting; you can turn it off on iPhone in Settings › Privacy & Security › Analytics & Improvements.
What stays on your device
Everything the app needs to work is stored only on your device:
| What | Where | With iCloud on |
|---|---|---|
| Check-ins: time, the point on the mood field, the word, where the check-in came from | The app’s storage on your device | Synced to the private space in your own iCloud |
| Notes (the one sentence you add to a check-in) | Next to the check-in | Synced with the check-in |
| Health context: heart rate and resting heart rate at the time of a check-in, the previous night’s sleep | Local storage on your device only | Never synced |
| Question history: when you were asked, whether you answered | Local storage on your device only | Never synced |
| Preferences: reminder times, the daily limit, on and off options | Your device’s settings | Not synced |
This data is included in your device’s encrypted iOS backup, which you manage in your own iCloud or computer settings.
Apple Health (HealthKit)
Moodfield asks for access to Health only when you turn on Smart timing. It is off by default.
- Read only: heart rate, resting heart rate, steps, sleep and workouts. Nothing is ever written to Health.
- What for: to time questions well (for example, when your heart rate settles after a rise, after a long stretch without moving, or after you wake up) and to add that moment’s context to your check-in.
- It stays on your device: health data is never sent to any server and never goes to iCloud.
- Used for nothing else: never for advertising, marketing or data mining, and never shared with anyone.
You can revoke access at any time: in the Health app, tap your profile picture and choose Moodfield from the list of apps in the privacy section. Without access, smart questions simply stay quiet and the rest of the app works as before.
iCloud sync (optional)
iCloud sync is off by default. If you turn on Settings › Your data › Sync with iCloud, only your check-ins and notes go to the private iCloud space in your Apple Account (a CloudKit private database) and appear on your other devices with the same account. Only you can see this space; we can’t. Its storage is governed by Apple’s privacy policy.
Turning sync off leaves both your device data and the iCloud copy untouched. While it’s off, Settings shows Delete iCloud copy.
Apple Watch
The watch app works on its own and syncs with your iPhone over Apple’s encrypted device-to-device connection, with no server in between. Check-ins, preferences and a “Delete everything” request travel this way.
Notifications, Siri, Shortcuts and Photos
- Notifications are scheduled on your device; there is no remote notification server. The title is always “A quiet moment”; titles that give the reason appear only if you turn on Show the reason in notifications.
- On Lock Screen widgets and your watch face, the word is hidden while the device is locked; only the color shows.
- Siri and Shortcuts: voice requests are handled under Apple’s Siri privacy terms; Moodfield only writes the word to storage on your device. The “Today’s Wallpaper” image is made on your device and sent nowhere.
- Photos: if you choose to save a poster or wallpaper to Photos, iOS asks only for permission to add. Moodfield can’t see your photo library.
Export and delete
- Export all my data (JSON): in Settings › Your data. Your check-ins, health context, question history and preferences; you choose where the file is saved.
- Delete everything: after a two-step confirmation, permanently deletes your check-ins, health context, question history, notifications and preferences on the device, the copy on your watch and, if iCloud was ever on, the copy in iCloud.
- Deleting the app also deletes its data on your device. If there’s a copy in iCloud, you can remove it with Delete iCloud copy in the app or from iCloud storage management under your name in iPhone Settings.
Children
Moodfield collects no data from anyone, including children.
