Privacy

Zavub keeps your data on your device. This page describes how each part of the app handles data and permissions.

Designed to keep data on your device

Notes, journal entries, to-do items, sketches, calendar events, habit data, voice memos and vault documents are stored on the device. Zavub is built without accounts, without a sync service and with no analytics.

Each permission exists for one visible feature. You can deny or revoke any of them; the rest of the launcher keeps working.

All-files access

Device-wide file search. Granted only for testing builds; the vault can use folder access instead.

Folder access (SAF)

Lets you pick one folder for the vault. The grant survives restart and can be re-selected if revoked.

Contacts

Contact search from home. If denied, search still covers apps, bookmarks and calculator.

Exact alarms and notifications

Reminders for calendar, habits, countdown and the sleep schedule. Without them, reminders degrade to in-app only.

Microphone

Voice memos. Recording starts only when you tap record.

Physical activity

Step counter. Used only if you enable it; no step count is invented when the sensor is unavailable.

Accessibility service

Optional double-tap lock shortcut. You enable and disable it in system settings.

Quick Settings tile

Optional lock tile in the notification shade.

Delete apps

Only opens the standard system uninstall confirmation; Zavub never uninstalls anything silently.

Designed for no outside connections

The app is built to perform no background uploads and no tracking. Web links you open go to your normal browser. This website loads no third-party resources and sets no cookies.
