Privacy Policy

Data not collected

Warmer does not collect your data. There is no account, no sign-up and no server for this app. Nothing the app hears or stores is sent to us or to anyone else. In App Store terms: Data Not Collected.

What the app does with Bluetooth

To find a lost device, Warmer listens for Bluetooth signals from devices near your iPhone or iPad. From each signal it reads the device's broadcast name if it has one, the type of device it says it is, and how strong the signal is. It uses that to sort the list and to set the color on the finder screen.

If a pair of earbuds or another device is already linked to your phone, Warmer may connect to it only to read its signal strength. It does not read or change anything else on the device.

The scan runs only while Warmer is open on screen. It stops when you leave the app. Signal readings stay in memory and are gone when the app closes.

What is stored on your phone

• Devices you save or hide: the name you give them, the type of device, the time you saved them, and when the app last heard them. iOS gives each device a random ID for this app only, and Warmer keeps that ID so it can recognize the device next time.
• Settings: what you told the app you lost, sound and haptics on or off, whether first-time setup is done, whether you were already asked about a trial reminder, and how many times you found something (so the app asks for a rating at most once per version).

This stays in Warmer's own storage on your device. We cannot see it. Hidden devices can be un-hidden in the app's Settings. Deleting the app removes all of it. Like any app's files, it can be part of the iCloud or computer backup of your device, which you and Apple control.

No analytics, no ads, no tracking

Warmer contains no analytics, advertising or tracking code and no third-party SDKs. It does not track you across apps or websites. The only crash information we may get is what Apple gives developers if you chose to share crash data with app developers in your device's settings.

Permissions

• Bluetooth, asked at first run, to hear nearby devices.
• Notifications, asked only if you start a free trial and say yes to a reminder. The reminder is a single notification created on your device the day before the trial ends. Nothing is pushed from a server.

Warmer does not ask for your location, microphone, camera, contacts or photos.

Purchases

Purchases and subscriptions go through Apple's App Store. Apple handles the payment and we never see your payment details. The app checks with Apple whether you have access. Apple's own privacy policy covers the App Store.

Links that leave the app

The Terms and Privacy links open these pages inside the app. The support link opens your own email app. If you write to us, we see your email address and what you write, and we use it only to answer you.

Children

Warmer collects no data from anyone, children included.

Changes

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
