Napp Time is a location-based alarm that wakes you up before you reach your destination. This policy explains what data the app uses and how.
What data we use
- Location (foreground and background): used to calculate the distance and estimated time to the destination you choose, and to trigger an alarm when you get close. Background location is required so the alarm works even when the screen is off.
- Destination you select: stored only on your device, to track your trip and remember saved favorites.
How your data is handled
Your location is processed entirely on your device. It is not sent to our servers (we don't operate any), not stored remotely, and not shared with or sold to any third party. The app has no user accounts and does not collect names, emails, phone numbers, or advertising identifiers.
Third-party services
To show the map and help you find places, the app contacts a few third-party services directly from your device. We do not run any server of our own, and we never receive or store the data sent to these services:
- Map tiles: loaded from OpenStreetMap and CARTO. The geographic area you are currently viewing is sent to those servers as part of normal map requests.
- Nearby bus stops: retrieved from the OpenStreetMap Overpass API, based on the map area you are viewing.
- Address & place search: when you type in the search box, your search text together with your current coordinates is sent to the Photon geocoding service (operated by Komoot) to return matching results.
Permissions
- Location (fine, coarse, background): to detect arrival at your destination.
- Notifications: to show and sound the arrival alarm.
- Foreground service: to keep tracking your location reliably while a trip is active.
Children
Napp Time is not directed at children under 13.
