🎛️ Privacy Settings

Public means anyone using Philiabit can view your profile, even without being your friend. Friends Only restricts your profile to accepted friends. Private hides your profile from everyone except people you explicitly approve.

Each content type has its own independent visibility setting, so you can, for example, keep your habits private while still showing off your streak publicly.

Note: content shared inside a group or team challenge (like relay proof) is always visible to that group regardless of your general visibility setting, since it's needed to verify the challenge.

Turning off Activity status hides your live online indicator from everyone, and automatically hides your last-active timestamp too. You'll also stop seeing other people's activity status, which is how most habit apps balance transparency and privacy.

AI personalization controls whether your activity (habits, categories, completion patterns) may be used to power personalized suggestions if/when Philiabit's AI-assisted features launch — see the AI Features Disclaimer. As of this version, Philiabit has no live AI coach, so this toggle has no effect yet but is available so your preference is already on record.

Analytics sharing controls whether your in-app usage events (e.g., screens viewed, challenges joined) are included in the aggregated product analytics we use to fix bugs and improve the app. Turning this off does not remove analytics already collected, but stops new events from being attributed to you.

Notification preferences are split by channel and category so you can, for example, keep chat push notifications on while turning off marketing emails.

Security and account-critical emails (like password resets or suspicious login alerts) cannot be disabled, since they protect your account.

This section shows the live status of each OS-level permission and deep-links you to your device's system settings to change it. For a full explanation of why each permission is requested, see Data & Permissions.

• Camera — used for proof capture.
• Photo library — used to upload existing photos.
• Contacts — used only when you choose to invite friends.
• Location — optional, used only to tag a proof photo if you choose to.
• Notifications — controls whether push alerts can reach your device at all, independent of the in-app category toggles above.
