Privacy policy

Last updated: 6 October 2026

WakeCrew is an alarm clock app for Android. This policy explains what the app does with your information. The short version: WakeCrew does not collect, send or sell any of your data. Everything you set up stays on your phone.

What stays on your phone

• Your alarms and their settings (times, repeat days, sounds, missions).
• A short history of your wake-ups (when the alarm rang and how long you took to get up), used to show you a summary.
• The reference photo for the Photo mission, and a numeric "fingerprint" of it used to compare photos.
• Barcodes you register for the Scan mission.
• Voice notes you add for "Voice from home" (Ghar Ki Awaaz).

None of this is uploaded. WakeCrew has no accounts and no servers, and it contains no advertising, analytics or tracking tools. Uninstalling the app deletes all of it.

Permissions and why we ask

• Notifications, alarms and reminders, full-screen alerts: so the alarm rings on time and appears over the lock screen.
• Ignore battery optimisation, run at start-up: so your phone doesn't stop the alarm overnight, and alarms come back after a restart.
• Camera (only if you use the Scan or Photo missions): to read your barcode or compare your photo. Photos are checked on the phone and not kept, except the reference photo you choose to save.
• Physical activity (only if you use the Steps mission): to count steps with your phone's step sensor.
• Vibration and audio: to play the alarm.

WakeCrew reads the light sensor (Roshni mission) and motion sensor (Shake and Steps missions) only while a mission is on screen.

Files you share with WakeCrew

When you share a voice note into WakeCrew (for example from WhatsApp) or pick an audio file, the app copies it into its own storage on your phone so it can play it as your alarm. It is not sent anywhere.

Children

WakeCrew is a general-audience alarm clock and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.

Changes

If a future version needs to handle data differently (for example, a feature that connects you with a friend), we will update this page and say so in the app before that feature is used.

Contacting us

If you tap "Tell us" in the app, your own email app opens with a message to us that includes your phone's model and Android version, so we can find what stopped an alarm. Nothing is sent unless you press Send.
