Fomli

Relentless Software ("we," "our," or "us") respects your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how Fomli operates, how data is processed, and our commitment to protecting your personal information. Fomli is designed to help users eliminate digital distractions, block short-form video feeds (such as Reels, Shorts, and TikTok), restrict adult content, and enforce focus while keeping your data on your device whenever possible.

Fomli operates under a strict local-first privacy architecture:

• On-Device Execution: All accessibility events, text checks, app blocking logic, and domain evaluations occur entirely on your local device.
• No collection of personal content: We do not collect, store or send to our servers, or to anyone else, your private messages, browsing history, contacts, credentials or personal files. The only data that leaves your device is described in Section 4 (advertising) and Section 5 (blocklist updates).
• No tracking by us: Fomli does not run its own servers that track your activity across apps or build profiles about you. Like most apps, it connects to the internet to load ads and to download updates of the adult-domain blocklist.

Fomli uses Android's AccessibilityService API (FocusGuardAccessibilityService) strictly to provide its core functionality as a distraction blocker and digital wellbeing utility.

• Purpose: The Accessibility Service is used solely to detect when a short-form video feed, a blocked app, a custom keyword or an adult web domain is shown on your screen, so Fomli can show a focus screen and take you away from the distraction. The focus screen is shown inside the Fomli app. On some devices where Android does not allow this, a simple focus screen without ads is shown instead.
• What it looks at: To do this, the service evaluates the text and interface elements that are visible on your screen, in real time and only in your device's memory, looking for short-form video feeds, blocked apps, your custom keywords and adult domains or terms. Because this check looks at visible text, text shown in other apps (including chat apps) may be evaluated locally for blocked terms. This information is not stored, recorded, shared or sent anywhere, and it is discarded immediately.
• What it never does: The service does not log, record, store or transmit what you type or what appears on your screen. Banking, finance, maps, music, AI and utility apps on our allowlist are not inspected for content.

Fomli's core features are free. The app is supported by ads served by Google AdMob: banner ads and rewarded video ads. Banner ads appear on Fomli's own screens (the Home screen and the focus screen shown when content is blocked). Rewarded video ads are optional: you choose to watch one to unlock a temporary pass (for example, 5 minutes). Ads are shown inside the Fomli app, not over other apps and not on your lock screen. We may also offer an optional paid purchase to remove ads, processed by Google Play.

What AdMob collects: To serve ads, measure them and prevent fraud, the Google Mobile Ads SDK may automatically collect: device identifiers (such as the Advertising ID), IP address, device model, operating system version, mobile network, language settings, and ad interaction data (impressions, clicks, diagnostics). This data is processed directly by Google and shared with Google for these purposes.

What we send: Fomli never includes what it detects on your screen, app names, keywords or any content from other apps in ad requests.

Consent and your choices: If you are in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, we ask for your consent through a consent message before showing ads. You can change your choice at any time from 'Privacy settings' inside the app when it is shown. You can also reset or opt out of ad personalization in your Android settings (Settings > Privacy > Ads; the exact path may vary by device and Android version).

More information: Google's Privacy Policy (https://policies.google.com/privacy) and How Google uses information from sites or apps that use its services (https://policies.google.com/technologies/partner-sites).

• Accessibility Service: to detect and block short-form feeds, blocked apps, keywords and adult domains, as described in Section 3.
• Usage access: used only to show your screen time and app-open metrics on your device.
• Display over other apps: used for a simple focus screen without ads when the normal focus screen cannot be opened, and for protection screens.
• Foreground service and notifications: to keep the protection running and to tell you if it stops.
• Battery optimization exemption: to prevent Android from stopping the protection.
• Installed apps list: to let you choose which apps to block.
• Internet access: to load ads and to download updates of the adult-domain blocklist. These requests do not include your personal data, but, like any internet request, they are visible to the server that handles them (for example, your IP address).
• Device Administrator: only if you turn on the optional Uninstall Protection (see Section 6).
• Local storage: your preferences, streak, blocked domains, custom blocks, cooldown settings and allowlists are stored locally on your phone and are deleted if you uninstall the app.

• Uninstall & Anti-Bypass Protection: Off by default. If you turn it on, Fomli makes it harder to uninstall it, force stop it, clear its data or turn off its permissions. Before it is enabled, Fomli shows you a message explaining this and you can cancel. You can turn it off at any time from inside Fomli, either by completing the Writing Challenge (writing 100 words) or by waiting 8 hours with your phone plugged in.
• Custom Cooldown: Optional. If you turn it on, an app where adult content is detected is blocked for the time you choose. Detection is automatic and can make mistakes. If something was blocked by error, use 'Wrongly Blocked?' on the focus screen.
• Reports: If you choose to send a 'Wrongly Blocked?' report, Fomli opens your email app with the name of the blocked item and the reason shown on the screen; nothing is sent unless you send the email yourself.

We implement strict software design principles to protect your data. Because the core feature evaluations are performed locally on your device, what you do on your screen is not sent to us.

Fomli is not directed to children and does not knowingly collect personal information from children under 13 (or under the minimum age required in your country). If you believe a child has provided us with personal information, please contact us so we can take immediate corrective measures.

We do not keep personal data about you on our own servers, so we usually have nothing to access or delete. Depending on where you live (for example, under GDPR or CCPA), you may have rights to access, delete or object to the processing of your data. For data processed by Google for advertising, you can use the controls described in Section 4 and Google's own tools. For anything else, contact us at the email below.

We may update this policy from time to time. The date at the top shows the latest update. Material changes will be reflected in the app listing or in the app.
