Where your entries live
InkFirst is an iPhone journaling app first. Your entries live on your device in SwiftData. If you use iCloud sync, they sync through your private iCloud account rather than an InkFirst-owned social profile or ad platform.
What AI is for
The AI layer exists to help turn writing into reflections, patterns, and Life Book chapters. It is not there to build an ad profile or turn your journal into a social graph.
When AI processing is used, the relevant writing may be sent to model providers for that feature. InkFirst is designed so those requests do not include your name, email address, or device identity.
What InkFirst avoids
- No third-party tracking SDKs.
- No ad profiles.
- No selling journal data.
- No requirement to make private writing public.
What telemetry exists
InkFirst uses limited telemetry to understand reliability and improve the product. That is different from tracking everything a person does for advertising. The public website also tracks beta-link clicks in a coarse, privacy-safe way.
