Privacy policy
Last updated 2 November 2026
Timer shows visual countdowns that make waiting and changing activities easier.
The short version
- We collect nothing. No accounts, no adverts, no analytics, no tracking.
- Everything stays on your device. We never see it.
- Nothing is shared unless a grown-up chooses to share it.
What the app keeps, and where
Timer keeps your settings and any timer that is running on your device, so it carries on if the app is closed.
What we collect
Nothing. We don't run servers that the app talks to, and the app has no accounts, no adverts, no analytics and no tracking. We can't see anything you or your child make or type in the app.
Timer works fully offline. It doesn't connect to the internet.
Permissions on your device
- Notifications: if you allow them, Timer tells you when a countdown ends. The alert is set up on the device itself; nothing goes through a server.
- Lock Screen: a running timer can show on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. This is shown by your device; nothing is sent anywhere.
Timer doesn't use the camera, microphone, location or contacts.
Sharing
Nothing leaves the device unless you choose to send it. When you press a share or save button, your device's own share sheet opens and you choose where it goes (for example Messages, Mail, Files or Photos). After that, it is handled by the app or service you picked.
Backups and deleting
If your device is backed up with iCloud or to a computer, Apple may include the app's data in that backup. Apple handles that under its own privacy policy, and we can't see it.
To delete everything, delete Timer from the device. Because we never hold a copy, we can't get anything back for you afterwards.
Children
Little Easier apps are made for children and the grown-ups who look after them. We don't collect personal information from anyone, including children. There are no adverts, no in-app purchases, no chat and no links that take a child out of the app without a grown-up.
Changes to this policy
If the app ever starts handling information differently, we'll update this page and the date at the top before that version of the app is released.
