Easing is made by Ankit Aglawe ("we", "us"). Contact: ankitships@gmail.com.
Episodes (start and end time, severity, where it hurts, symptoms, triggers, medication, notes), quick logs (water, medication, signals, notes), medication reminders and your custom list items are stored on your iPhone using Apple's SwiftData.
When an episode is saved, Easing also stores the local weather at that time (pressure and its trend, humidity, temperature, wind, UV, cloud cover and conditions). It does not store your location.
iCloud sync is free for everyone. If you're signed in to iCloud on your iPhone, the logs listed above sync through your private CloudKit database, which belongs to your Apple Account. Apple encrypts it, and only you can read it. We don't have access to it.
A few settings also sync through iCloud key-value storage: your MIDAS questionnaire score and date, which list items you've hidden, your notification choices and your free-trial status.
To stop syncing, turn off iCloud for Easing in iOS Settings > [your name] > iCloud.
With your permission, Easing reads these types from Apple Health: sleep analysis and menstrual flow. Easing never writes to Apple Health.
When you log an episode, Easing notes the cycle day and the hours you slept the night before. It uses these, and today's sleep, only to show you context on your episodes, your patterns in Insights and your daily outlook.
These readings are kept in a separate file on your iPhone. They are not stored in iCloud, not included in iCloud Backup, not shared with anyone, not sold and not used for advertising or marketing. You can turn off access at any time in iOS Settings > Health > Data Access & Devices > Easing.
If you allow it, Easing uses your approximate location (about 1 km) to get local weather from Apple Weather (WeatherKit). Your location goes only to Apple for that request, under Apple's Privacy Policy. Easing doesn't store it.
Notifications (pattern alerts, weekly recap, medication reminders, outlook alerts and episode check-ins) are scheduled on your iPhone. Their content is never sent to us. Easing uses Apple's push service only for the silent signals that let iCloud sync.
Easing contains no analytics, advertising or crash-reporting SDKs. If you've chosen to share diagnostics with app developers in iOS Settings, Apple may send us anonymous crash reports. These contain no data you've logged.
PDF reports are created on your iPhone. They are only shared if you share them, with the people you choose.
Easing Pro is sold through Apple. Apple handles payment and we never receive your payment details. We only learn, on your device, whether you have an active purchase.
There is no account to delete. You can delete any episode in the app. Deleting the app removes everything stored on your iPhone, including all Apple Health readings. To delete synced data, go to iOS Settings > [your name] > iCloud > Manage Account Storage > Easing.
Easing is not directed at children under 13, and we don't knowingly collect data from them.
If this policy changes, we'll post the new version here with a new effective date.
