WatchStudy privacy policy

WatchStudy keeps study data on your devices and private iCloud account. Product analytics and Apple Ads attribution help us understand how the app is used and how our own ads perform; optional AI requests fulfill features you choose to use.

Last updated September 24, 2026

Information WatchStudy collects

WatchStudy stores decks, flashcards, and study progress locally on your devices and can sync them through your private iCloud account.

If you use AI features such as deck generation or import cleanup, the study text you submit is sent through the app's proxy path only to fulfill that request.

Product analytics

WatchStudy collects product analytics and derived study-topic metadata to understand activation, study flows, sync reliability, and product usage. Events use an app-level identifier so we can follow a customer journey through the app. When Apple Watch syncs with iPhone, the Watch can use the same app-level analytics identifier to connect the study journey across devices.

For standard event analytics, WatchStudy does not send raw flashcard text, raw deck contents, or raw prompts.

  • app opens
  • onboarding progress
  • deck creation
  • study session starts and completions
  • paywall interaction
  • sync reliability
  • device and platform usage
  • coarse derived deck categories such as law, math, language, or medicine

Apple Ads attribution

On supported iPhones, WatchStudy uses Apple's AdServices attribution token to learn whether an installation came from one of our Apple Ads campaigns. RevenueCat sends the token to Apple and may receive campaign, ad group, and keyword information.

RevenueCat can associate that information with subscription activity so we can measure our own ads. The token does not provide us with your age or gender.

Session replay and diagnostics

WatchStudy uses session replay on iPhone to understand navigation and usability issues.

Replay is configured to avoid network payload capture and to mask selected sensitive surfaces, but visual session data can still process visible on-screen study content if it appears outside an explicitly masked area.

Third-party services

WatchStudy may rely on Apple iCloud for sync, Cloudflare for proxying app services and analytics ingestion, PostHog for analytics, Google Gemini for AI generation when you choose to use it, and RevenueCat for subscription management and Apple Ads attribution.

Payment details remain handled by Apple and the App Store purchase flow.

Data deletion and contact

You can delete local study data inside the app, remove the app from your devices, and manage synced data through your Apple and iCloud settings where applicable.

We use analytics to improve the app and, in aggregate, to measure our own Apple Ads campaigns. We do not sell analytics data or use it to serve third-party ads.
