Motivation

Privacy Policy

Effective date: June 4, 2026

Motivation is designed as an offline-first quote app. This policy explains what stays on your device, what is shared with the widget, and how purchases and support are handled.

Plain-English summary

  • Motivation does not require an account and does not sell personal information.
  • Quotes, favorites, profile settings, and widget preferences are stored locally on your device.
  • The app shares favorite quotes and widget settings with its widget extension through an Apple App Group.
  • Apple processes App Store payments, and RevenueCat helps manage purchase entitlements.
  • The app does not use IDFA, third-party ads, or cross-app advertising tracking.

1. Overview

This Privacy Policy applies to the Motivation iOS app, the Motivation WidgetKit extension, related in-app support screens, and the public support pages for the app.

Motivation provides a vertical quote feed, liked and saved quotes, profile personalization, quote category preferences, sharing, and customizable Home Screen widgets. The app is built to work without a backend account and without an internet connection for its core quote and widget features.

2. Short Summary

Accounts Motivation does not require account creation or login.
Ads and tracking Motivation does not show third-party ads, does not use IDFA, and does not track you across apps or websites for advertising.
Local app data Display name, selected categories, quote like and favorite state, widget settings, onboarding status, notification preference, and app settings are stored locally.
Widgets Favorite quotes and widget preferences are shared locally with the widget extension through the App Group group.com.motivationinc.
Payments Apple processes App Store payments. RevenueCat helps validate purchases, restore purchases, and manage premium access entitlements.

3. Information Stored Locally on Your Device

Motivation stores app data locally using iOS storage, including UserDefaults. This can include:

  • Your display name and profile initials.
  • Your selected motivation category and daily focus preference.
  • Quote like and favorite states.
  • Widget category, widget style, widget text size, widget mode, and hourly refresh preference.
  • Onboarding status, notification preference, and general app settings.
  • The latest selected quote or action cue used to support the app and widget experience.

If you uninstall the app, iOS normally removes the app's local data. Device backups controlled by Apple or your device settings may include local app data.

4. Widget Data Sharing

Motivation uses an Apple App Group so the main app and widget extension can read the same local widget settings and favorite quote information. This allows the widget to show quotes from your selected category or favorites and apply your selected widget style.

App Group data stays on your device unless your device settings or Apple services back it up. Motivation does not operate a server for syncing your quote library.

5. Purchases and RevenueCat

Motivation may offer premium access through Apple in-app purchase, including monthly, yearly, or lifetime options. Apple processes the payment transaction. RevenueCat is used to validate purchases, manage entitlements, restore purchases, and help the app know whether premium access is active.

RevenueCat may process an app-specific anonymous user identifier, purchase status, product identifiers, subscription status, renewal status, and related technical purchase information. Motivation does not receive your full payment card details.

6. Notifications

If you enable notifications, Motivation may schedule local notifications on your device. You can change notification permission in iOS Settings. Motivation does not require notifications to use the app.

7. Sharing Quotes

When you tap Share, iOS opens the native share sheet. The app passes the selected quote or share card to iOS, and the destination you choose controls how that content is sent and processed.

8. Your Choices and Data Deletion

  • You can reset favorites inside the app.
  • You can edit your display name, category preference, and widget settings inside the app.
  • You can disable notifications in iOS Settings.
  • You can remove local app data by deleting the app from your device.
  • You can manage or cancel subscriptions through your Apple Account subscription settings.

9. Children

Motivation is not directed to children under 13. The app does not knowingly collect personal information from children.

10. Changes to This Policy

This policy may be updated when the app, providers, legal requirements, or data practices change. The effective date above shows when this version took effect.
