Privacy Policy

QuitGentle stays device-first unless the user chooses more.

QuitGentle is a smoking-cessation companion focused on private, device-first logging with optional sync and optional Apple Health / HealthKit heart-rate context when the user explicitly turns those features on.

What QuitGentle stores

  • Cigarette logs
  • Craving logs
  • Rescue actions and reflection entries
  • Support contacts the user chooses to save
  • Optional place labels and coordinates when location is enabled
  • Optional heart-rate samples and source details when Apple Health / HealthKit access is enabled
  • Optional step counts during Take a Walk when Motion & Fitness support is enabled

How permissions work

  • Location is optional and supports hotspot insights plus place-tagged history.
  • Notifications are optional and support reminders and check-ins.
  • Apple Health / HealthKit access is optional, read-only, and only attaches recent heart-rate context when the user chooses it.
  • Motion & Fitness is optional and only supports the walk rescue flow when enabled.

Data handling posture

  • No account is required.
  • History stays on the device by default.
  • Cloud Sync is optional and uses signed Apple devices on the same iCloud account.
  • Users can export, import, delete, and reset data from inside the app.
