Scribbell

Privacy Policy

Effective November 9, 2026

This policy covers the Scribbell mobile app (“Scribbell” or “the app”) for Android and iOS, made by Kyle Wenner, an independent developer (“I” or “me”). If you have a question about it, email kyle@kwenner.dev.

What the app stores, and where

Scribbell saves what you enter in a database on your device. That includes:

• Workouts, with the exercises and sets you log (weight or other amount, reps or count, units, set tags, and times)
• Notes you write on workouts or exercises
• Exercises and plans you create or edit, along with plan schedules
• Your settings, such as units, theme, and custom set tags

This information never leaves your device through the app, and nobody receives it, including me. I have no way to see, read, or recover it.

What I collect

Nothing. Scribbell has no sign-in and makes no network requests to me or anyone else. It contains no analytics, crash-reporting, or advertising software, and it doesn’t use identifiers to track you across apps or websites.

When data leaves your phone (only when you choose)

Some features create a file and hand it to a destination you pick:

• Backup: saves all your Scribbell data to a JSON file, either in a folder you pick or through your phone’s share sheet.
• Export CSV: creates a spreadsheet of your sets and opens the share sheet.
• Plan sharing: saves a plan as a file so you can send it to someone else.

Whatever you choose next (a cloud drive, email, a messaging app, and so on) handles the file under that service’s own privacy policy. Scribbell doesn’t send any of these files anywhere by itself. When you restore a backup or import a plan, the app reads only the file you select.

Device backups

Your phone’s operating system may include Scribbell’s data in its own device backups, such as Google’s Android backup or Apple’s iCloud Backup, depending on your device settings. Google or Apple handles those backups under their own privacy policies. I can’t access them.

Purchases

Scribbell is free. If you choose to become a supporter, the payment is handled entirely by Google Play or the Apple App Store. I never see your name or payment details. The app only learns which supporter product you have so it can unlock supporter themes, and it keeps that record on your device.

Information from the app stores

Google and Apple may give developers aggregated reports, such as install counts and, if you’ve agreed to share diagnostics with developers, crash reports. These come from your platform under its terms. They aren’t collected by Scribbell and don’t identify you to me.

Permissions

Scribbell doesn’t ask for access to your location, contacts, camera, microphone, photos, or health data. Your phone’s file and folder picker only grants access to the specific file or folder you choose.

Deleting your data

Because your data lives only on your device, you control it completely. You can delete individual items in the app, or uninstall Scribbell to delete everything it has stored on your device. Backup files you saved elsewhere stay where you put them until you delete them.

Children

Scribbell isn’t directed at children under 13, and it doesn’t knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children.

Changes to this policy

If a future version of Scribbell changes how data is handled (for example, an optional cloud sync feature), I’ll update this policy and its effective date before that version is released, and describe the change in the app’s release notes.
