Anonymous Usage Statistics

Flowmodoro is local-first: your sessions and settings stay on your device. To know how many people use the app, it sends one small anonymous ping a day. This page shows exactly what that ping contains, what our server keeps, and how to turn it off.

Effective date: October 21, 2026

Live numbers

Built only from the aggregates described below. Groups smaller than 5 are folded into “Other”, and Pro is shown only as a rounded share.

What is sent

Five values, once a day. Nothing else.

App version p_app_version

The installed version

Know which versions are still in use before dropping support for one.

Platform p_platform

ios, android, or web

Know where to focus testing and releases.

Plan p_tier

free or pro

Know how many people use Pro and how long it takes to upgrade.

Device language p_language

Language only ("es", never "es-AR")

Decide which translations are worth doing.

Install ID (optional) p_install_id

A random ID created on your device, or null when you turn it off

Count returning users (daily, weekly, and monthly actives, and who comes back after a day, a week, or a month).

The exact payload

This is the whole request body. Nothing else is attached.

{
  "p_app_version": "1.0.0",
  "p_platform": "android",
  "p_tier": "free",
  "p_language": "es",
  "p_install_id": "3f2a9c1e-7b4d-4e8a-9f61-2c5d8e0b7a14"
}

When it is sent

At most once a day, a few seconds after the app opens or comes back to the foreground.
Never before you have seen the one-time notice in the app, which also lets you turn the install ID off before the first ping.
Never from development builds or builds without a server configured.
One attempt only: if it fails, it is dropped. Nothing is queued, retried, or stored for later.
Sent with the app's public key only, never with your account's sign-in token.

What our server keeps

Two tables. Days use the server clock (UTC).

`telemetry_daily_counts`

Anonymous counters. Each ping adds one to the row for its combination of values; there is no row per device and no identifier.

day: Day of the ping
app_version: App version
platform: ios, android, or web
tier: free or pro
language: Language only
count: How many pings had these values that day

`telemetry_active_days`

Only when the install ID is on. One row per install ID and active day, deleted after 13 months.

install_id: The random install ID
day: Day of the ping
tier: free or pro

What is never sent

Your sessions, statistics, session names, or tags
Your settings or timer state
Your account, email, or anything that links the ping to them
Your IP address, device model, or advertising identifiers
Crash reports, screens you visit, or what you tap

How to turn it off

Turn off Settings → Data → Anonymous Usage Stats. The install ID is deleted from your device and is no longer sent; turning it back on creates a new, unrelated ID.
Clearing local data from Settings also deletes the install ID.
The anonymous daily counter has no identifier and stays on.
