Privacy
In effect 20 September 2026
Sooner keeps your tasks on your iPhone. There is no account, no sync, and no server that holds your list. The only thing that leaves your device is anonymous usage data, described below.
What stays on your iPhone
Everything you put into Sooner is written to storage on your device and stays there:
Your tasks, their titles, and whether each one is Soon or Some Day
Your groups, their names and emoji
Your XP, level, and day streak
Your settings — appearance, mode, and which groups are collapsed
What is never sent anywhere
The content of your list never leaves your iPhone. No task title, group name, or note is transmitted, backed up to our servers, or readable by us — we operate no server that could receive it.
Deleting Sooner from your iPhone deletes all of it. There is no copy to ask us for, and nothing for us to delete on your behalf.
Anonymous usage analytics
Sooner uses Aptabase to count how the app is used, so we know which parts are worth improving. Aptabase is privacy-focused analytics: it records events, not people.
Each event carries the app version, the OS version, the device model, and a coarse region derived from the connection. It carries no name, no email address, no advertising identifier, and no task content. The identifier attached to a session is random, changes regularly, and cannot be linked back to you or across apps.
Aptabase processes this data on servers in the United States.
Aptabase privacy policyNo advertising, no profiling
Sooner contains no advertising SDK, no third-party trackers, and no crash-reporting service. Your data is never sold, rented, or shared with data brokers, because we don't hold any.
This website
This site sets no cookies and runs no analytics. Nothing you do here is measured.
As with any website, the host that serves these pages keeps standard request logs — IP address, timestamp, and the page requested — for the short period needed to deliver the site and guard against abuse.
Children
Sooner is not directed at children under 13 and knowingly collects no personal information from anyone, of any age.
Your data, your control
Because we hold no personal data, there is no account to export or erase. To remove everything Sooner has stored, use Reset all data in Settings, or delete the app.
If you'd still like a question answered about what is collected, write to us and we'll answer.
Changes to this policy
If what the app collects changes, this page changes with it and the date at the top moves. Material changes will also be noted in the App Store release notes.
