MOBaiLE Privacy

Plain-language privacy for a paired app.

MOBaiLE is designed to connect your iPhone to a backend server you configure and control. The app stores some data on-device and sends prompts, audio, attachments, and run metadata to that backend so it can do the work you asked for.

At a glance

What the app does and does not do.

This summary is meant to be easy to read. The sections below provide the policy details in fuller form.

Stored on your iPhone

Connection settings, local thread history, and the API token you save in the app. The token is stored in iOS Keychain.

Sent to your backend

Prompts, voice recordings, attachments, session metadata, run status, logs, and results needed for the thread to work.

Not built around ads or tracking

MOBaiLE does not include advertising SDKs and does not sell personal data.

Information the app processes

  • Connection settings such as server URL and session ID.
  • API token used to authenticate to your backend.
  • Text prompts and local chat history you choose to keep in the app.
  • Voice recordings when you choose microphone input.
  • Photos, files, and other attachments you explicitly import and send.
  • Run status, logs, and result metadata returned by your backend.

How that information is used

  • To send your requested task to the backend you paired with.
  • To show live progress, results, and follow-up context in the thread.
  • To keep local app state such as settings and saved conversations.
  • To reopen or continue the same thread on your phone later.

Where information is sent

The iOS app sends prompts, audio, attachments, and related metadata to the backend server URL you configure. If that backend is configured to call third-party providers, such as AI or transcription services, those providers may also process data under their own policies.

What is not safe to assume

MOBaiLE should not be described as "no data leaves your devices" because the app is explicitly designed to send data to the backend you pair with. Whether anything goes beyond that depends on your backend setup.

Retention and deletion

  • On-device settings and local chat history remain until you delete them or uninstall the app.
  • Backend-side retention depends on how your backend is configured and operated.
  • You can remove app data by deleting local app data and deleting backend-side data on the server you control.

Security responsibilities

  • Use HTTPS for non-local connections unless you intentionally rely on a trusted alternative such as Tailscale.
  • Protect the backend endpoint and the API token used to authenticate to it.
  • Choose safe mode or full-access mode based on how much you trust the host machine.

Children's privacy

MOBaiLE is not directed to children under 13.

Changes and contact

This policy may be updated over time. Changes will be published at this URL with a revised last-updated date. For privacy questions, open an issue on the MOBaiLE GitHub issue tracker or use the support path linked from the app's App Store listing for distributed builds.
