What Morsel collects
Two things. Both are described below.
The text of the task you type, at the moment you ask for steps. It goes to Morsel's planning service, which turns it into steps and sends them back. There is no account, so it arrives with nothing attached that says who you are.
Counts of what happens in the app: that it was opened, that a task was broken into steps, that a step was ticked off. What the task said is never part of a count, and there is a switch in Settings that turns them off.
Morsel has no advertising, no crash reporting, no tracking identifiers, and no third-party SDKs. There is no account to create and no way to sign in.
Where your tasks are stored
Your tasks and steps are stored on your iPhone.
If you have iCloud enabled for Morsel in iOS Settings, iOS also syncs that data to the private database of your own Apple Account through Apple's CloudKit service, so it appears on your other devices. That data is held under your Apple Account and governed by Apple's Privacy Policy. The developer has no access to it. You can turn this off in iOS Settings, and Morsel continues to work with local storage only.
The AI breakdown
When you ask Morsel to break a task down, the text you typed is sent over an encrypted connection to Morsel's own service at morsel.wuyuxai.com. That service passes it to a language model to write the steps, and sends the steps back. It keeps a log line for each request: the time taken, the language, how many characters you typed, and how many steps came back. The task itself is not written down, and neither is your IP address.
What the model provider behind that service keeps is not something Morsel is in a position to promise. If a task is something you would rather not send anywhere, write the steps yourself with the manual editor or start from a template; neither leaves your iPhone.
If the service cannot be reached and your iPhone can run Apple Intelligence, Morsel falls back to the model on the device, and in that case nothing is sent at all.
Usage counts
Morsel sends a few counts to a server we run ourselves at admin.wuyuxai.com. Nobody else receives them.
There are four counts: the app was opened; the app was closed, and how long it had been open; a task was broken into steps, together with which route made them (the planning service, the model on your iPhone, a template, or your own typing); a step was ticked off.
Each one travels with a random number the app generates for itself the first time it runs, the version of Morsel, your iOS version, and your iPhone model. That is everything.
That random number is not your Apple ID and not the advertising identifier. No other app can read it, deleting Morsel throws it away, and reinstalling makes a new one. It is not used to follow you across apps or websites, and none of this is sold or passed to anyone.
The task text is never sent with a count. Neither is a step, a template name, or the language you wrote in.
You can switch this off in Settings, under Share anonymous usage. Doing that also throws the random number away.
What never leaves your iPhone
The steps once you have them, everything you edit by hand, the template library, focus mode, and every reminder you set.
Reminders access
If you choose to export steps to the Reminders app, iOS asks for your permission first. Morsel writes the steps you selected into Reminders and reads nothing else. If you never use that feature, Morsel never requests the permission.
Notifications
If you set a reminder on a step, Morsel schedules a local notification on your device. Local notifications do not involve a server and are not sent over a network.
Children
Morsel is rated 4+ and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.
Changes
If this policy changes, the revised version will be posted on this page with a new effective date.
