Last updated: September 8, 2026 · Developer: 1DevProject · Contact: 1devproject.oe+remindr.support@gmail.com
1. Local-First Data Storage
Remindr! stores your content locally on your device. Personal data created in the app—including tasks, to-dos, calendar events, alarms, countdown timers and saved timer presets, stopwatch lap times, world clock cities, notes, dashboard widget layout, alert settings (snooze intervals, ringtones, and vibration), and currency favorites—is kept in a local SQLite database and private app storage. We do not collect, sell, rent, or track your personal content.
2. Backup & Cloud Synchronization (Local & Dropbox)
Remindr! provides user-controlled backup options:
- No Backup: You can keep all data exclusively on your device with backup turned off.
- Local Backup (
remindr_db.bak): When you export a backup file, Remindr! updates this file on your device storage as you make changes. You can move, copy, or save this file wherever you prefer. - Dropbox Cloud Sync: You can optionally connect a Dropbox account for cloud backup.
- App Folder Access Only: Remindr! only accesses its own dedicated app folder (
/Apps/Remindr Backup/) using OAuth 2.0 PKCE. - Account Identification: Your Dropbox account email is shown in the Settings screen so you know which account is linked. It is stored only on your device and is never sent to any developer-managed server.
- No Access to Other Files: Remindr! cannot view, read, or modify other files, photos, or documents in your Dropbox account.
- Sync Operation: Backups upload in the background when connected to the internet. When offline, changes are saved locally until a connection is available. Data is transmitted via HTTPS to Dropbox APIs.
- App Folder Access Only: Remindr! only accesses its own dedicated app folder (
- No Developer Servers: There are no developer-hosted user database servers; data remains between your device and your personal Dropbox account.
