Frequent questions

Is my data private?

Yes. Arete is local-first — no account needed. Apple Health readings are checked and discarded, journal text stays on your device, and there's no cross-app tracking. Full detail is in the Privacy Policy.

Do I need an account?

No. You just open the app and start. If you're signed into iCloud, your progress syncs privately across your own devices.

How do subscriptions and the free trial work?

The core loop is free forever. Arete Pro (Weekly or Yearly) unlocks breadth and automation, and where a free trial is offered its length is shown in the app before you subscribe. Manage or cancel any time in Settings → your name → Subscriptions on your device.

How do I restore a purchase?

In the app, open Settings → Restore Purchases. Make sure you're signed in with the same Apple Account you used to subscribe.

How do I delete my data?

Because your data is on your device, deleting the app removes it. To also clear synced progress, delete Arete's data from iCloud in your device's iCloud settings. There's no server account to close.

Do my quests "verify themselves" without Apple Health?

Manual completion is first-class — you can always just tap to complete. Apple Health is an optional convenience that checks off eligible quests for you.
