Your Screen Time Data is 100% Private
Let's be crystal clear about what we can and cannot see:
We CANNOT See:
- Which apps you block or unblock in your slots
- How long you spend on Instagram, TikTok, or any apps
- Your Screen Time statistics or app usage patterns
- When you hit time limits or override blocks
We CAN See (unhookd App Only):
- Which unhookd buttons you tap
- Which unhookd screens you view
- When you open/close unhookd
- How you navigate through unhookd
Your Screen Time data stays on YOUR device, encrypted by Apple. We have ZERO access to it—we built unhookd specifically to protect this privacy.
What We Collect (OPT-IN ONLY)
Analytics sharing is completely OPT-IN. During onboarding, you must explicitly choose to share analytics—we do NOT collect any data unless you opt in. You can change this setting anytime in Settings → Privacy.
Anonymous unhookd App Usage (via Mixpanel)
What We Track (if you opt in):
- In-App Actions: Button taps, screen views, feature usage within unhookd
- Session Data: When you open/close unhookd, session duration
- Device Context: Device model and iOS version
- General Location: City/region only (from IP address, not GPS)
- Technical Issues: Crash reports and error diagnostics
What Makes It Anonymous: All data uses a random identifier—not your name, email, or Apple ID.
Important: This does NOT include your Screen Time data or which apps you block.
What We Don't Collect
- Your Screen Time data (which apps you block/unblock, time spent on apps)
- Your identity (no name, email, phone, or account information)
- Personal data (browsing history, precise GPS location, contacts, photos, messages)
- Your blocked apps list (ZERO visibility into slot contents)
How unhookd Works
unhookd uses Apple's Screen Time API with all processing done locally on your device. Your slot schedules and blocked apps stay on your device, encrypted by Apple. We have zero visibility into which apps you block—Apple does not share your Screen Time data with unhookd.
