Privacy Policy
Last updated: September 24, 2026
List Total is a utility that adds a running cost total to your Apple Reminders lists. It is built to work on your device and within your own iCloud account, and it only goes online when you ask it to read a product link. This policy explains what that means for your data.
The short version
List Total has no accounts, no servers, and no analytics. We do not collect, sell, or share any personal information. There is no backend to send your data to, so we never see your lists, your items, anything you type into the app, or the links you import. When you paste a product link, your device asks that store's website for the page directly; nothing goes through us.
Where your data lives
Your lists and items are stored in Apple Reminders. If you have iCloud enabled, Reminders data syncs across your devices through Apple's iCloud service, exactly the way the built-in Reminders app already does. That data is governed by Apple's Privacy Policy, not by us. List Total never copies your lists anywhere else.
Link import
When you paste a product link into a new item, List Total reads that page to fill in the item's name and price. Your device requests the page straight from the store's website, the same way it would if you opened the link in Safari, so the store sees an ordinary visit (such as your IP address and device type) under its own privacy policy. We receive nothing, and we never learn which links you import.
Some store pages only load in a browser, so List Total may open the page in a hidden,
private browser view that keeps no cookies or history once it closes. Only secure
(https) links are read. The link is saved with the item in its Reminders
notes, where you can see, change, or delete it. Nothing is fetched unless you paste a
link.
Reminders access
List Total asks for permission to access your Reminders so it can read and display your lists and save the items, costs, and quantities you enter. This access is used only to provide the app's core features. You can review or revoke it at any time in Settings → Privacy & Security → Reminders.
On-device settings
A small amount of preference data — such as your display and sorting options — is stored locally on your device using the system's standard settings storage. This information stays on your device and is not transmitted to us or anyone else.
What we don't do
- No user accounts or sign-in.
- No analytics, tracking, or advertising SDKs.
- No third-party data sharing.
- No servers of our own for the app to send anything to.
- No collection of your name, email, location, or contacts.
Children's privacy
List Total does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children under the age of 13.
