Your privacy
No tracking and no cookies. Most apps here save things, like your game progress or your name on a certificate, only on your own device.
What's 4 the Gaff is the exception, because it's a list you share with your house. Your list, the name you choose and your shop trips are stored online with Google Firebase so everyone in your gaff sees the same thing. To keep the service running, the app's maker can see house names and who's in them, but never what's on your list. There's no email or password to give, and people can only join your gaff through an invite link.
Prescription Meditation also stores things online. You sign in with Google, and your prescriptions, favourites and dislikes are saved privately to your account with Google Firebase. What you tell the doctor is sent to Google's Gemini AI to write your prescription. The app keeps anonymous counts, like how many meditations are prescribed, but never what you tell the doctor, and you can delete your prescription history from your Patient file at any time.
To see which apps get used, the apps count visits anonymously, using a random number instead of your name. If you use Send feedback, your message is stored with Google Firebase so Ste can read it, so please don't put personal details in it.
Food Detective looks up barcodes in Open Food Facts, a free public food database. Photos of ingredient lists are read on your phone and aren't sent anywhere.
