cue:it Privacy Policy

Last Updated: September 20, 2026

cue:it is developed by Krishna Venkatramani.

cue:it has no account system. You do not sign up, and we never see your reminders, routines, focus sessions, or the apps you choose to block. This policy explains what stays on your device, the one service that processes anything, and the Apple technologies the app relies on.

Summary

• We collect nothing directly. There is no server, no login, and no analytics.
• Everything you create stays on your device.
• Purchases are processed by Apple and RevenueCat, which records purchase history against an anonymous identifier.
• Screen Time data never leaves your device, and cue:it cannot read which apps you selected.

Data stored on your device

Reminders, routines, tasks, tags, focus sessions, alarms, and your app-blocking selections are stored locally on your device using Apple's Core Data, in the app's own storage and in a shared container used by the cue:it widgets and Screen Time extensions.

This data is not uploaded, backed up to our servers, or synced across devices by us. There are no cue:it servers. If your device backs itself up through iCloud or a computer, that backup is governed by Apple's privacy policy, not ours.

Screen Time and app blocking

cue:it uses Apple's Family Controls, Managed Settings, and Device Activity frameworks to block distracting apps during a focus session that you start yourself.

This is important, so we want to be explicit about it:

• cue:it is a self-directed focus tool. You block your own apps, on your own device, during sessions you choose to run. It is not a parental-control product and it does not monitor anyone else.
• When you choose which apps to block, iOS gives cue:it opaque tokens, not app names. The app cannot read, resolve, or display which apps you selected, and neither can we.
• Those tokens are stored only on your device and are never transmitted anywhere.
• cue:it does not collect, report, or share your screen-time statistics, usage totals, or activity history with us or with any third party.
• Screen Time access is requested only when you first set up app blocking, never on launch.
