Privacy Policy
Mission Alarm Clock / Alarm Clock with Missions — Last updated: October 6, 2026
1. Overview
Mission Alarm Clock on Android and Alarm Clock with Missions on iOS ("the App") provide an alarm clock with optional math, typing, and shake missions. You can also select None to dismiss without a task. It offers adjustable snooze limits. Android also offers a gradual volume fade-in that preserves your device's alarm volume. On iOS 26 or later, the App uses Apple's AlarmKit system alarms with a choice of bundled alarm sounds. The iOS system Stop button can stop an alarm without completing a mission. This Privacy Policy explains how information is handled when you use the App.
2. Information We Collect
The App has no user accounts or sign-up. Alarm schedules, labels, selected sounds, language preferences, and mission settings are stored locally on your device, subject to device backups as described below. On iOS, scheduled alarms are also registered with AlarmKit on the device. Saved alarms can operate offline. Advertising, consent management, and usage analytics communicate with Google services over the internet. On Android and iOS, opening the feedback form sends the app name, version, build number, platform, language, entry point, device model, and operating system name and version to Tally in the form URL. A field may be blank when the device does not provide it. If you submit the form, Tally also receives your selected feedback type, message, and any email address you choose to enter.
3. Third-Party Services
The App uses the following third-party services:
- Google AdMob — for displaying advertisements. The App shows a banner on the alarm-list and settings screens, an app-open ad on a normal launch, and an occasional full-screen ad when you finish saving an alarm. It shows no advertisements at all during the wake flow — that is, while an alarm is ringing, while you solve the mission, or on the first screen right after you dismiss it. AdMob may collect device identifiers (such as Advertising ID) and usage data for ad delivery, frequency capping, reporting, and fraud prevention. The App requests non-personalized ads; this does not mean that no data is collected. On iOS, the App first requests permission through Apple's App Tracking Transparency system. If you deny tracking, eligible ads may still be requested without the advertising identifier after applicable regional consent; your alarms and missions remain available. Where required, Google's User Messaging Platform manages regional advertising consent. When available, you can review or withdraw these choices through Privacy choices on the About screen. For more information, see the Google Privacy Policy.
- Google Analytics for Firebase — for understanding app usage and improving the experience. Google processes automatically collected events, such as first opens and sessions, app interactions, device and app information, and identifiers such as an app-instance ID and, where available, an advertising ID. Approximate location may be derived from the device's IP address; the App does not request precise device location. We do not send mission problems, typed phrases or answers as custom analytics events. See Google's Analytics data collection information and the Google Privacy Policy.
- Tally — hosts the optional feedback form on Android and iOS. The App selects one of 17 language forms, matching the language chosen in Settings. Opening the form sends the app slug, displayed app name, app version and build number, platform, interface language, About screen entry point, device model, and operating system name and version in the URL. Unavailable values are left blank. When you submit feedback, Tally stores your selected feedback type, message, and optional reply email. Your saved alarms and mission answers are not attached. See the Tally Privacy Policy.
4. Permissions
Android uses the following permissions for alarm operation and Google services:
- Alarms & reminders (exact alarms) — to fire your alarm at the exact time you set.
- Full-screen notifications — to show the alarm and mission over the lock screen.
- Notifications — to display the ongoing alarm notification.
- Vibrate — for the alarm vibration.
- Run at startup — to re-schedule your alarms after the phone restarts.
- Foreground service — to keep playing the alarm sound until you dismiss it.
- Internet — for advertising, consent management, and analytics.
- Motion sensor (accelerometer) — used only locally to count shakes for the shake mission.
On iOS, the App requests AlarmKit authorization to schedule system alarms and Apple's optional App Tracking Transparency permission before advertising. You can manage these permissions in iOS Settings. Motion sensor data for the shake mission is processed locally and is not sent to our servers or included in custom analytics events. Advertising, consent management, and analytics use an internet connection on both platforms.
The App does not use or request access to your microphone, precise location, contacts, camera, photos, or files. It only plays the alarm sound; it does not record any audio.
5. Data Storage
The App does not provide its own account-based synchronization of alarm settings. Uninstalling removes its local settings and cached data from the device, but does not automatically remove information already processed by Google services. Android backup is enabled, so a copy of local data may also be included in your Google account's backup, depending on device settings. Uninstalling does not delete that backup, and reinstalling may restore saved settings. You can manage backups through Android and your Google account settings. On iOS, some local settings may also be included in iCloud or computer backups, depending on your device and backup settings. Deleting the App does not necessarily remove existing backups. You can manage these backups through Apple's device and backup settings; see Apple's iCloud Backup information. Google's policies describe how its advertising and analytics data is retained and managed.
6. Children's Privacy
The App is suitable for general audiences and is not directed at children under the age of 13. We do not knowingly collect personal information from children.
7. Changes to This Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy from time to time. Any changes will be posted on this page with an updated revision date.
