What the app does
Doughbud helps you track a sourdough starter (feeding schedule, rise timing) and optionally analyze a photo of your starter (“Is it ready?”).
Data we process
| Data | How it’s used |
|---|---|
| Starter logs (feeds, timers, notes) | Stored on your device only for v1 |
| Photos you take for the AI scan | Sent to our processing service (Google Gemini via our infrastructure) to return a readiness estimate, then not used for advertising |
| Purchase / subscription status | Handled by Apple and RevenueCat to unlock Pro features |
| Basic diagnostics (crashes) | May be collected by Apple / Expo if you allow system sharing |
What we don’t do
- No user accounts or login in v1
- We do not sell your personal data
- We do not use your starter photos for ads or training marketed to third parties beyond what’s needed to run the scan feature
Third parties
- Apple — App Store, In‑App Purchases
- RevenueCat — subscription status
- Google (Gemini) — image analysis for the optional scan feature
Your choices
- Decline camera permission → app works without AI scan
- Delete local data by removing the app (clears on-device logs)
- Email us to ask questions about data
Children
Doughbud is not directed at children under 13.
