AES-256-GCM encryption on all personal data — entries, mood, tags, photos, medications, everything. Face ID / Touch ID unlock. Auto-lock on inactivity.
Most journaling apps store your innermost thoughts on their servers, train AI on your entries, or lock features behind subscriptions.
Phase is different. Your data never leaves your device. There are no servers, no accounts, no cloud — and there never will be.
| What we collect | Answer |
|---|---|
| Your journal entries | Never |
| Your email | Never |
| Analytics / tracking | Never |
| Your location | Never |
| Anything at all | Never |
I built Phase because I know how important it is to have a safe space for your thoughts. Journaling has been part of my own mental health journey, and I wanted to create something that respects your privacy the way therapy respects confidentiality. This isn't a startup trying to monetize your emotions — it's one person's way of paying it forward.
