Privacy Policy
Fold Counter ("Fold Counter", "we", "our") is developed by LISNIC.DEV LIMITED. This Privacy Policy explains what data Fold Counter uses, how it is used, and your choices.
Overview
Fold Counter is designed to collect no data at all. It counts how often you open your iPhone Duo, and everything it records stays on your iPhone. The App Store privacy label is "Data Not Collected".
Data We Collect
We don't collect any data. Fold Counter has no account, no server, and doesn't send anything over the network.
To work, the app stores the following on your iPhone only:
- Hinge events: each change of your iPhone Duo's hinge (closed, partly open, fully open), with its time, time zone, hinge angle, and whether it was recorded live, by a Shortcuts automation, or worked out when you returned to the app
- App settings: whether you've finished setup, the last known hinge position, and when the app was last open
Fold Counter does not include third-party analytics, ad, or crash-reporting SDKs. It does not collect location, health data, contacts, financial details, or cross-app tracking identifiers.
How We Use Data
The data stored on your iPhone is used to:
- Show how many times you opened your iPhone Duo today
- Show your daily history and weekly totals
- Estimate hinge wear from your folding pace
- Avoid counting the same fold twice when both the app and a Shortcuts automation record it
Sharing
We do not sell, share, or receive your data. Fold Counter has no way to send your data anywhere.
If you email us, sharing happens only when you choose to, and only what you write.
Third-Party Services
Fold Counter uses Apple services only:
- Shortcuts by Apple, if you set up the optional Opened or Closed automations
- Data shared: none; the automations run Fold Counter's actions on your iPhone, which write to the same on-device history
- Linked: No
- Tracking: No
- Provider policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
- App Store by Apple, for the paid download
- Data shared: purchase data required by Apple's payment system; we never see your payment details
- Linked: Yes, to your Apple Account, by Apple
- Tracking: No
- Provider policy: https://www.apple.com/legal/privacy/
Fold Counter does not use iCloud sync or push notifications.
Data Retention
Your fold history is stored only on your iPhone and is kept until you delete it.
If you back up your iPhone to iCloud or to a computer, your fold history is included in that backup like other app data, subject to Apple's backup settings and policies.
We do not run a backend, so there are no other copies of your data.
Security
Fold Counter relies on Apple platform security, including the data protection iOS applies to app storage. Because the app sends nothing over the network and includes no third-party SDKs, your data isn't exposed outside your iPhone.
Your Choices & Rights
You can:
- Delete your fold history in the app: open Settings and choose Reset all data
- Delete the app, which deletes everything it stored
- Turn off or delete the Shortcuts automations at any time in the Shortcuts app
- Contact us with privacy questions
Children's Privacy
Fold Counter is not directed to children under 13, and it does not collect personal information from anyone, including children under 13.
International Transfers
Fold Counter doesn't transfer your data anywhere. If you use App Store or iCloud Backup, Apple may process data in different countries according to Apple's infrastructure and policies.
App Tracking Transparency
Fold Counter does not track you across apps or websites owned by other companies, as defined by Apple. It does not use third-party advertising or attribution SDKs.
Push Notifications
Fold Counter does not send notifications.
