Privacy Policy
Your focus data is designed to stay on your device.
FocusFlow is an Android productivity app that helps enforce focus sessions by blocking distracting apps. This policy explains what the app stores, which Android permissions it uses, and how your data is handled.
Last updated: April 2026
This Privacy Policy may be changed, amended, or replaced at any time without prior notice. Continued use of the app after any change constitutes your acceptance of the updated policy.
Local-first storage
FocusFlow stores tasks, schedules, app block lists, daily allowances, reminders, settings, focus history, blocked words, overlay appearance choices, and related app preferences locally on your Android device using on-device storage such as SQLite and Android preferences. No data is transmitted to or stored on any FocusFlow-operated server.
No account system or backend database
FocusFlow does not require a user account and does not run a FocusFlow backend service for syncing your personal focus data. The app is built to work entirely locally on your device.
Android permissions used
- Accessibility Service: Used to detect app/window changes and help block apps during focus or standalone block sessions. It is not used to collect passwords, private messages, form entries, or screen recordings.
- Usage Stats Access: Used to identify foreground app usage so FocusFlow can enforce app blocking.
- Appear on Top / Display over other apps: Used to show the blocking overlay above distracting apps.
- Notifications and foreground service: Used for reminders, countdown status, session controls, and keeping enforcement active during a focus session.
- Boot handling: Used to restore active enforcement after a device restart when applicable.
- Vibration and audio alerts: Used only if you enable aversion deterrents for blocked app attempts.
Custom wallpaper and media choices
If you select a custom block-screen wallpaper, FocusFlow stores the selected image reference or local app-private copy so the native Android blocking overlay can display it. FocusFlow does not use this feature to upload your photos to any server.
What FocusFlow does not collect
- No location data.
- No camera or microphone recordings.
- No passwords or private message contents.
- No payment data.
- No personal analytics transmitted to any server operated by FocusFlow or TBTechs.
Your control
You can disable Android permissions in system settings at any time. Some FocusFlow features may stop working if required permissions are removed. You can clear app data or uninstall FocusFlow to remove all locally stored app data from your device.
Policy changes
This Privacy Policy may be updated at any time without prior notice. We recommend reviewing this page periodically. Continued use of FocusFlow after any update constitutes your acceptance of the revised policy. TBTechs is not responsible for any consequence arising from your failure to review updated policy terms.
