How we work
- Pay once. Version 1 keeps working for good. We do not rent out software that sits on your own device.
- Your data stays with you. No account, no servers holding your information. Data is encrypted on your device, and optional sync goes through your own Google Drive.
- No tracking in the apps. The apps contain no analytics or telemetry. This website counts visits with a cookieless analytics tool; the privacy policy says exactly what it collects.
- You can leave. Zeroed exports all of your data, even after the trial ends.
The longer version, including when a subscription is honest, is in the Stillware Manifesto.
