Earnit Privacy Policy
Last updated: November 7, 2026
Earnit (“we”, “us”) is an iPhone app that locks the apps you choose each morning until you walk a daily step goal. This policy explains what information Earnit collects, why, who it is shared with, and how you can delete it.
Information we collect
- Account details: your email address, and your name if you sign in with Apple or Google and they share it. If you use Sign in with Apple’s “Hide My Email”, we only get the relay address Apple gives us.
- Steps: with your permission, Earnit reads your step count from Apple Health and from your iPhone’s motion sensor. It uses them to track progress toward your daily goal.
- Your Earnit history: your settings (wake-up time, step goal range, how many apps you chose to lock) and, for each day, the goal you spun, your step total, and when you spun, reached the goal and unlocked.
- Purchases: whether you have an active subscription or free trial. Payments are handled by Apple; we never see your card details.
Your locked apps stay on your phone. Earnit uses Apple’s Screen Time framework. When you choose apps to lock, iOS gives Earnit an encrypted token instead of the app names, so we can’t see which apps you picked or how you use them. Earnit does not collect your browsing or app usage.
How we use it
- To run the app: lock your chosen apps at your wake-up time, track your steps toward the goal, and show your streaks, stats and badges.
- To back up your settings and history to your account, so they come back if you sign in on a new phone.
- To manage your subscription and free trial.
- To send the notifications you allow, such as when you hit your step goal. These are scheduled on your phone.
Health data
Step data from Apple Health is used only to check your daily goal and show your progress inside Earnit. It is never used for advertising or marketing, never sold, and your step counts are never shared with anyone except the service providers below that store your backup for you. Your daily step totals are part of that backup. If you use the Friends tab, friends can see whether you reached your goal, but not your steps.
Friends
Your profile and the Friends tab are optional, and nothing is shared until you save a profile. Your friends, anyone you send a friend request to, and any signed-in Earnit user who opens your profile link or enters your invite code can see your name, profile photo and bio, your current and best streak, the days you walked your goal or took a rest day, and how long your apps stayed locked. Once you have a profile, things you share from Earnit include your profile link, and the preview of that link (in Messages and other apps) shows your name and profile photo to anyone it’s sent to. They never see your step counts, locked apps or email. We store a small copy of the photo you choose on Supabase; Earnit doesn’t access the rest of your photo library. If you start a challenge with a friend, they can see the date and step range you agree on and the time you unlocked that day. If you allow notifications, we save an address for your phone so friend requests and challenges can reach you, and Expo delivers them. You can remove, block or report someone at any time from their profile. Deleting your account deletes all of this.
Who we share it with
We don’t sell your personal information, and we don’t use it for advertising or tracking. Earnit has no ads and no analytics or advertising tools. We use these service providers to run the app:
- Supabase: hosts accounts, sign-in and your backup.
- RevenueCat: checks your subscription status. It receives your account ID and purchase history from Apple.
- Apple and Google: handle Sign in with Apple, Google sign-in and App Store payments.
Keeping and deleting your data
We keep your account and backup until you delete them. To delete everything, open Earnit and go to Settings → Account → Delete account. Your account and backup are deleted from our servers right away, and the app on your phone is reset. Deleting the app also removes the data stored on your phone. You can also email us to ask for deletion.
Deleting your account does not cancel your subscription. Cancel it in your iPhone’s Settings → your name → Subscriptions. Apple and RevenueCat may keep purchase records as required for billing and tax.
Security
Your data is sent over encrypted connections, and each account can only read its own backup.
Children
Earnit is not directed at children under 13, and we don’t knowingly collect information from them.
Changes to this policy
If we change this policy, we’ll update the date at the top of this page.
