Information We Use

iDadJoke keeps a few things on your device to make the app feel like yours. None of it leaves your phone:

An optional first name. If you enter one during the welcome, it's used only to greet you inside the app.

Optional category preferences. The joke categories you pick are used only to filter your feed on-device.

Your saved jokes. Jokes you save are stored locally with SwiftData so you can browse them anytime.

A streak counter. Your daily streak is kept on your device (in UserDefaults / an App Group) so the app can show how many days in a row you've dropped by.

Information We Do Not Collect

iDadJoke has no accounts, no analytics SDKs, no advertising identifiers, and no third-party tracking. We do not collect, sell, or share personal information.

The only network request the app makes is a simple GET to the public jokes API (icanhazdadjoke.com) to fetch joke text. No personal data is sent with that request.

Notifications

If you opt in, iDadJoke can send you a daily joke reminder. These reminders are scheduled entirely on your device using Apple's notification system (UNUserNotificationCenter) — there is no push server, and no notification data is sent anywhere. You can turn reminders off at any time in iOS Settings.
