Privacy
Last updated November 6, 2026
Baby Hours is made for tired parents, and your baby’s log is yours. The short version: there are no accounts, ads or tracking, and your log lives on your iPhone and in your own iCloud.
What stays on your iPhone
Everything you log, including feeds, sleep, diapers, growth, notes and photos, is stored on your iPhone. We don’t have a copy and can’t see it.
Sharing with family
If you invite family, the shared log and its photos are kept in the owner’s iCloud using Apple’s CloudKit, and only the people you invite can see them. You can stop sharing at any time from Family in the app. Apple’s privacy policy covers iCloud.
Say it
When you tap Say it, your voice is turned into words on your iPhone. Your recording never leaves the phone. To work out what to log, the app sends these to our server:
- the words you said or typed
- your baby’s first name, sex and age in days
- your usual bottle size and milk
- short summaries of recent entries, so “make that 5 ounces” has something to point at
Our server passes them to an AI model (Anthropic’s Claude, through Vercel’s AI Gateway) and sends the result back to your phone. We don’t store what you said. Our server logs only which kinds of entries were proposed, how long it took and how much text was processed. If you never use Say it, nothing is sent.
Keeping the service safe
To stop abuse, the app uses Apple’s App Attest to show our server that requests come from a real copy of Baby Hours. This gives us an anonymous device key, which we use only to limit how many requests one device can make.
Subscriptions
Purchases are handled by Apple. We use RevenueCat to check whether your Apple Account has Premium. RevenueCat receives an anonymous ID and your purchase history, not your name or email. Read RevenueCat’s privacy policy.
What we don’t do
- No accounts, so we never have your email or password.
- No ads, analytics or tracking SDKs.
- We never sell your data or share it for advertising.
Children
Baby Hours is for parents and caregivers. It is not directed at children, and we don’t knowingly collect information from them.
Deleting your data
Deleting the app removes the log from your iPhone. If you shared it, stop sharing from Family first, or remove the data in iCloud settings on your iPhone.
Changes and contact
If this policy changes, we’ll update this page and the date above. Questions? Email cfahlgren1@gmail.com.
