Our Approach

AwareFlow reduces risk by limiting what exists in the first place. Most sensitive processing happens directly on your device, and less data collected means less data to protect.

On-Device Processing

Core awareness features run entirely on your iPhone.

  • No audio storage

    Sound is processed in real time and immediately discarded.

  • <li>
      <strong>No external processing</strong>
      <p>Detection does not rely on remote servers or third-party
      services.</p>
    </li>
    

This removes entire categories of risk, including data interception and server breaches.

Platform Security

AwareFlow is built on Apple's security model, relying on tested platform-level protections rather than custom security systems.

  • App sandboxing

    The app operates in a restricted environment, isolated from other apps.

  • <li>
      <strong>System-managed encryption</strong>
      <p>Data stored on your device is protected by Apple's hardware
      and operating system.</p>
    </li>
    
    <li>
      <strong>Secure system APIs</strong>
      <p>We use Apple frameworks for audio, storage, and permissions.</p>
    </li>
    

Data Minimization

We collect only what is necessary for awareness. Reducing data reduces exposure.

  • No accounts or login required
  • No advertising or tracking SDKs
  • No hidden analytics about behavior

Network Security

When network communication is used, it follows Apple's secure transport requirements.

  • Encrypted connections

    All communication uses secure protocols such as HTTPS with TLS.

  • <li>
      <strong>Limited usage</strong>
      <p>Core awareness features do not require network access.</p>
    </li>
    

User Control

You remain in control of your data and permissions at all times.

  • Microphone access can be enabled or disabled in iOS Settings
  • You can pause awareness at any time
  • You can delete your data by clearing history or removing the app

System-level permissions ensure nothing is accessed without your consent.

Ongoing Security

Security is not a one-time feature. We continuously review the app as Apple evolves its platform and as new risks emerge. Updates are designed to maintain both protection and simplicity.

Report a Concern

If you believe you have found a security issue, we encourage responsible reporting.
