MyLastWeek is a private journal. The app is designed so that your memories belong to you and stay with you. This policy describes what the app collects, what it never collects, and the choices you have.
MyLastWeek does not send any of your content — moments, photos, voice notes, transcripts, locations, or Health context — to any AI service. All summarization is performed locally on your device using Apple Foundation Models, the same on-device AI that powers Apple Intelligence.
This is a commitment, not a setting. There is no cloud AI option, no "premium privacy" tier, and no toggle to send your content to a server for processing. If on-device generation is not available on your device or in your language, the app falls back to a local template — never to a remote AI service.
The following content is stored only on your iPhone, in the app's local storage. It is not uploaded to MyLastWeek servers, and there are no MyLastWeek servers that hold your memories:
Anonymous, aggregated analytics are off by default. If you turn them on in Settings, the app shares anonymous feature and reliability signals so we can understand which screens are used and where things break.
When enabled, analytics events record interaction types only — for example, "opened the week view" or "tapped Save Story" — never the content of what you saved. Analytics events never include: moment text, attached media, voice transcripts, locations, Health data, search queries, or generated summaries.
Anonymous crash diagnostics are also off by default. If enabled, the app sends technical crash reports so we can fix what's broken. Reports include the kind of technical context that helps reproduce a crash: device model, iOS version, app version, and the code path that failed. Reports never include moment text, media, transcripts, locations, search queries, or filenames that reveal your memories.
MyLastWeek does not run its own cloud sync service. If you have iCloud Backup enabled in iOS, your iPhone's standard nightly backup includes MyLastWeek's app data — alongside your other apps — exactly as iOS handles it. That backup is between your device and your Apple ID; we do not have access to it.
If you restore your iPhone from an iCloud or Finder backup on a new device, your memories come with it. If you do not use iCloud Backup, your memories live only on the device where you captured them.
MyLastWeek requests system permissions only for features you choose to use:
You can change any of these at any time in iOS Settings.
When you choose to attach a photo or video, MyLastWeek reads the items you select. Originals stay in your Photos library; MyLastWeek does not modify them.
The optional Privacy Lock requires Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode before opening MyLastWeek. The biometric check is handled by iOS — the app never sees your biometric data.
You can export a year, month, or week as a Keepsake PDF — your Story, your photos, your moments — from the share menu on any Story view. The PDF is generated on your device and saved or shared through iOS. This is the user-facing data export mechanism in version 1. A separate portable-format export (such as JSON) is not committed for this release.
You can permanently erase every moment, voice note, app-stored photo or video, transcript, generated context, and search index from your device using Delete All Memories in the Danger Zone of Settings. Originals in your Photos library are not touched. App preferences (language, reminders, privacy lock) are kept unless you reinstall the app.
MyLastWeek is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect data from them.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted on this page with a new date.
