MISHA
Privacy
Plain language, because it's about your kid.
The short version: your photos never leave the phone, there's no account, and no analytics run anywhere. MISHA has no server of mine behind it, so I couldn't look at your data even if I wanted to.
What I collect
Nothing. The app contains no analytics, no crash reporters, no advertising code, and no third-party software of any kind. It never phones home. If you email me for support, I see whatever you chose to write, and that's the whole list.
Photos and the AI
When you photograph an object, the cutout, the naming, and the routine suggestion all run on the phone itself, using Apple's Vision and Apple Intelligence. The photo becomes a card inside the app's own storage. Nothing is uploaded, and nothing needs a network connection to work.
Voice
Describing a task out loud uses Apple's on-device speech recognition. Your words are turned into text on the phone and go no further.
Sync
Routines, cards and journals sync between your devices through iCloud, in a private database tied to your own Apple ID. Apple hosts it, your Apple ID protects it, and I have no access to any of it. If you turn iCloud off, everything simply stays local.
Sharing routines
When you share a routine file with someone, it carries the structure: step names, order, schedule. Photos, journal pages and history stay on your phone.
Permissions the app asks for
- Camera, to photograph a real object and turn it into a routine card.
- Photo library, to pick an existing photo for a card.
- Microphone and speech recognition, to let you speak a task instead of typing it. Recognition runs on the device.
- Notifications and alarms, for the reminders you set.
Each one is optional. The app works if you decline; the matching feature just stays off.
Children
MISHA is operated by parents and caregivers. It asks for no birthdays, no accounts, and no personal details beyond the names and photos you choose to add, which stay in the app and your own iCloud.
Deleting your data
Delete the app and its local data goes with it. iCloud copies can be removed from Settings on your device (Apple ID, iCloud, Manage Storage) or by deleting routines in the app before you leave. You can also export everything first: Settings inside the app offers a full backup file plus printable and spreadsheet exports.
Changes
If any of this changes, this page changes first, with a new date below. The promise that photos stay on the phone is architectural, and it's the reason the app needs recent hardware at all.
