Doorway

Privacy Policy

Effective date: October 2, 2026

Who we are

Doorway is an iOS app developed and operated by Anshul Jain ("we", "us"). It helps you limit your own use of the apps you choose.

Screen Time access

Doorway uses Apple's Screen Time frameworks (Family Controls, Device Activity and Managed Settings) with individual authorization, which you grant on your own device. With that access Doorway can:

• let you pick apps with Apple's app picker. Apple gives Doorway an opaque token for each app, not the app's name or any usage history;
• ask iOS to tell it when your use of a chosen app reaches your limit, so the app can be blocked;
• show your usage on the Stats screen. These reports are drawn by iOS inside a protected extension, and the numbers are never readable by Doorway or sent anywhere.

You can turn off Screen Time access at any time in the Settings app. Doorway then stops blocking apps.

What is stored on your device

Your limits (the app tokens, the minutes or schedule you set, any name you give a limit, Beast Mode), how many doors you have used today, and whether you finished the introduction. This is stored only on your iPhone, in Doorway's own storage. We operate no servers and cannot see, access or recover it. Deleting the app removes it.

Notifications

If you allow notifications, Doorway shows local notifications on your iPhone, for example when you open a door. They are created on your device. Doorway does not use push notifications from a server.

What we do not do

• We do not offer or require accounts, logins or registration.
• We do not use analytics, crash reporting, advertising or attribution SDKs.
• We do not track you across apps or websites.
• We do not sell, rent or share any information. Doorway contains no networking code, so we never have it in the first place.

Purchases and subscriptions

Doorway Pro subscriptions and the one time Lifetime purchase are processed by Apple through the App Store. We never see your name, payment details or Apple Account. The app checks what you have bought on your device using Apple's StoreKit framework. Purchases are covered by Apple's privacy policy.

Children

Doorway is for people limiting their own device. It is not a parental control app and does not manage anyone else's device. Because Doorway sends us no data from anyone, it collects no data from children.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new effective date.
