Why Kurso has no account
Most apps ask you to sign up before you can do anything. Kurso doesn't — and that was one of the first decisions we made.
Your mood is not our data
A note about a bad day, a side effect you're embarrassed about, a diary entry you'd never say out loud. These are some of the most personal things a person can write. We think the safest place for them is the device in your pocket, not a server somewhere.
What that means in practice
- No sign-up. Open the app and start. There's no email, password or profile.
- No servers for your notes. Everything you enter is stored on your iPhone. We couldn't read your notes even if we wanted to. Only subscription purchases go through Apple and our subscription provider.
- No analytics or ads. We don't track how you use the app.
- You decide what to share. A report or a diary entry leaves your phone only when you send it yourself.
Privacy you can feel
Privacy isn't only about servers. It's also about the moment someone glances at your lock screen. That's why Kurso can hide medicine names in notifications, lock the app — and separately, the diary — with Face ID, and offers app icons that don't draw attention.
One thing to know. Because there's no account, there's no cloud copy either. Your Kurso data is part of your regular iPhone backup, so keep backups turned on if you'd like it to move with you to a new phone.
