Atoll — Privacy Policy

Short version

Atoll keeps your screen time on your iPhone. There is no account, no analytics and no third-party SDK. The only thing Atoll sends anywhere is the name of an app you track, to Apple's App Store, to show that app's icon in History.

What Atoll records

Atoll counts time with two Shortcuts automations that you create yourself: one runs when an app you chose opens, the other when it closes. Each run tells Atoll the app's name and the time. From that Atoll keeps:

• the start and end time of each session and the app's name;
• your daily limit.

This is written to a private app group container on your iPhone, shared only with Atoll's own widget. It is kept for about 40 days, included in your encrypted device backup if you make one, and deleted when you delete the app or tap Settings › Clear history.

What Atoll sends

To draw app icons in History, Atoll asks Apple's public iTunes Search service (itunes.apple.com) for an app by its name and your App Store country, then downloads the icon image Apple returns. The request carries no account, no device identifier and none of your usage data. Icons are cached on your iPhone, so each app is looked up once. Apple handles these requests under its own privacy policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/.

Atoll makes no other network requests.

Notifications and Live Activities

The Live Activity on the Dynamic Island and Lock Screen is rendered on your device by iOS. Atoll does not use push notifications and holds no push tokens or server infrastructure.

Children

Atoll does not collect personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be published at this address with an updated date.
