Privacy Policy
Effective November 7, 2026
In short: your data stays on your iPhone. We don't collect it, see it, or share it.
just focus ("the app") is made by Shadman Hye ("we", "us"). This policy explains what information the app uses and how it's handled.
Information we collect
None. The app has no accounts, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party tracking or data-collection tools. It does not send any information about you or your use of the app to us or to anyone else.
Information stored on your device
To work, the app saves the following only on your iPhone:
- Your first name, if you enter it during setup
- Your answers to the setup questions
- Your focus sessions, tasks, daily goal, and streak history
- Your settings, such as theme, session length, and reminder times
This information never leaves your device and is not included in anything we can access. It is removed when you use Settings → Erase All Local Data in the app, or when you delete the app.
Screen Time and app blocking
just focus uses Apple's Screen Time framework (Family Controls) to block the apps, categories, and websites you choose, only during focus sessions you start.
- Apple gives the app anonymous tokens for what you pick. The app cannot see which apps or websites you chose, how long you use them, or any of your activity.
- Your selection is stored only on your device and is used only to block those apps and websites during your sessions.
- You can turn off the app's Screen Time access at any time in iOS Settings → Screen Time.
Notifications
If you allow notifications, the app schedules reminders on your device, for example when a session ends, before a scheduled task, or an evening streak reminder. No notification content is sent to any server. You can turn notifications off at any time in the app's Settings or in iOS Settings.
Subscriptions and payments
Subscriptions are sold and processed by Apple through the App Store. We never receive your name, email, payment details, or Apple Account information. The app asks Apple, on your device, whether your subscription is active, and remembers only that yes-or-no answer. Apple's handling of your purchase is covered by Apple's Privacy Policy.
Children
The app is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.
Your choices
Because we hold no data about you, there is nothing for us to access, correct, export, or delete on our side. You stay in control of everything on your device and can erase it at any time as described above.
Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
