Why do you use your own servers instead of for example CloudKit?
How do you make money?
Is unlimited storage really unlimited? If I upload 2 TB of pictures that’s fine?
Are you iOS only or also available on other platforms?
If iOS only, why do you use an android design pattern (floating + button) and not conform to platform standards?
I guess your privacy policy is not finished yet. It’s lacks details to conform to gdpr and ccpa.
Where are your servers located? We use AWS and the servers are currently located in the US-east.
Why do you use your own servers instead of for example CloudKit? The stuff you save on the app is encrypted and only stored on your phone and not on our servers. Your encrypted saved data is then backed up to your iCloud account automatically if your have iCloud backups turned on. When you share, we use end-to-end encryption to protect your data so our servers are only used as a transmission medium of your encrypted data to the recipient which is where the data gets decrypted.
How do you make money? If people love SecureAppy enough, we are hoping to push out some pro features later on. Our hope is that the pro version can be used by more heavy users while the free version can be used by common users. So we can only determine a pro version later on based on usage of the app and what features we add later on can be considered pro.
Is unlimited storage really unlimited? If I upload 2 TB of pictures that’s fine? Since we store your data only on your phone, it never comes to our servers. Like I mentioned above, we only use our servers for transmission of encrypted content when sharing.. similar to WhatsApp. By "unlimited", we just mean that we don't set any limits on the amount of things you store or share via the app.
Are you iOS only or also available on other platforms? It is currently iOS only. But we are actively building the android version as we speak!
If iOS only, why do you use an android design pattern (floating + button) and not conform to platform standards? We have tried to use iOS standards wherever possible. There may be some elements like floating buttons that are mainly android. But they seem to be more common now in iOS as well so we felt okay using those in iOS.
I guess your privacy policy is not finished yet. It’s lacks details to conform to gdpr and ccpa. Thanks for pointing this out! We will definitely take an other look at this!
