Effective date: 23 August 2026 Last updated: 10 September 2026
Stasher is a home-inventory app: you record where you put things, and the people in your household can see the same list. This policy explains what the app stores, where it lives, and what you can do about it.
Short version: Stasher stores your email address, the items you write down, and — if you sign in with Google — the name and profile picture on that Google account. If you use the voice feature, the words you say are sent to be turned into a form for you to check; the recording never leaves your phone. There are no ads, no analytics, no trackers, and nothing is sold or shared with anyone.
Stasher is an independent app published by Tristan Blank.

To sign in, Stasher records:
@privaterelay.appleid.com) instead of your real one — in that case
Stasher never receives your actual email address at all.If you sign in with Google, Google also passes along the name and profile picture on your Google account. Stasher doesn’t use either one — nothing in the app displays them — but they are stored with your account record, so it would be wrong to say they aren’t received.
Stasher does not collect your name from Apple, your phone number, your contacts, your location, your photos, or your device’s advertising identifier. Signing in with Google gives Stasher no access to your Gmail, Drive, calendar, or contacts — only the email address and name on the account.
You can optionally set a display name or nickname. It’s whatever you type — Stasher doesn’t take it from your Apple or Google account, or your email. It’s visible to the other people in your household, next to items you added, and nowhere else. Leaving it blank is fine.
The content you enter about your belongings:
Please don’t put anything in a note that you wouldn’t want the other members of your household to read — everyone in a household sees the same items and notes.
The app has a “Submit feedback / report a bug” option behind the ? button. It opens your own email app with a message addressed to stasherdotapp@gmail.com, with three lines already filled in: the Stasher version, the build number, and your iOS version. Those are there because they are the first thing needed to track down a bug.
Nothing is sent unless you send it. The message is composed in your email app, so you can see exactly what it says, edit it, delete those three lines, or not send it at all. Stasher does not read your mail, and there is no in-app form quietly posting anywhere.
What reaches us is then an ordinary email: your email address and whatever you chose to write. It is kept only as long as it takes to deal with, and never used for anything else.
Stasher lets you say where you put something instead of typing it. Two separate things happen, and the difference between them matters:
The microphone is only ever live while that screen is open and you have tapped to speak. Stasher asks for microphone and speech-recognition permission the first time. If you say no, the voice feature doesn’t work and nothing else in the app changes.
Stasher does not keep the transcript. It exists for the length of one request; what gets stored afterwards is the entry you chose to save.
Voice is the one part of Stasher with no way of knowing whether it worked. A misread sentence you quietly correct on the form and a perfect one both end up as the same saved item, so the mistakes are invisible to us.
There is a switch under ☰ on the home screen, off by default, that changes this. With it on, Stasher keeps — for the sentences you speak, and nothing else:
It is used for one thing: finding out which sentences the app gets wrong, so they can be fixed. It is never shown to anyone else, including other members of your household — this is the one thing in Stasher that isn’t shared with them, because you agreed to it and they didn’t. It is not sold, not shared, and not used to build a profile of you.
The switch is per person, not per household. If you turn it on, only your sentences are kept. Somebody else in your home has to make their own choice.
Turning it off deletes what was already stored, not just what comes next. So does deleting your account.
If it’s on, we can read those sentences. That’s the point of them, and it’s the reason it’s off until you decide otherwise.
No analytics or usage tracking. No advertising or ad identifiers. No crash-reporting service. No location data. No camera access. No cookies. Stasher does not track you across other apps or websites, and there is no third-party SDK in the app doing so on its behalf. The microphone is used only for the voice feature described above, and only while you are using it.
Voice is limited to five entries a month for each household. Stasher Pro lifts that limit for everyone in your household, as an auto-renewing monthly subscription bought through the App Store.
Apple handles the payment. Stasher never sees your card details and never receives your Apple ID. What we are told is whether the subscription is active and the date it runs to, so the app knows what to unlock — nothing about who paid or how.
Cancel any time in your iPhone’s Settings, under your Apple ID. Cancelling leaves you with the free five a month, and everything you have already saved stays exactly where it is.
Only to make the app work:
Your information is not used for advertising, profiling, or recommendations, and it is not sold, rented, or shared with data brokers. There is no scenario in which your item data is used for anything other than showing it back to your household.
A household is a shared space. Anyone who joins your household can see every item in it, including items you added and the notes on them, and can edit or delete them.
People join a household using an invite code. Treat the invite code like a password — anyone who has it can join your household and see everything in it. You can generate a new code at any time from the household screen, which immediately stops the old one from working. Generating a new code does not remove anyone who has already joined.
Stasher uses Supabase (supabase.com) to store data and handle sign-in. Data is hosted on Supabase’s infrastructure in the United States. If you are outside the United States, your information is transferred and stored there.
Your session is kept on your phone in the device’s secure storage — the iOS Keychain — rather than in ordinary app storage. A copy of your household’s items is also cached on your phone so the app works without a signal; that copy is removed when you sign out.
Nobody else receives your data.
Your account and items are kept until you delete them.
Depending on where you live, you may have additional rights under laws such as the GDPR or the CCPA — including access, correction, deletion, and portability. Email us and we’ll honour them. Stasher does not sell personal information, so there is nothing to opt out of in that respect.
Stasher is not directed at children under 13, and does not knowingly collect information from them. If you believe a child has created an account, email us and we’ll delete it.
Access to your data is enforced at the database level: the server checks on every single request that you are a member of the household whose data you are asking for, rather than relying on the app to ask nicely. Sign-in tokens are stored in the iOS Keychain. Traffic between the app and the server is encrypted in transit.
No system is perfectly secure, and this is a small independent app rather than a company with a security team. If you find a vulnerability, please email us — we’d genuinely like to know.
If this policy changes in a way that affects what’s collected or how it’s used, the effective date above will change and the updated policy will be posted at this address. Continuing to use Stasher after that means you accept the updated policy.
