FrequencyOS, by The Human Frequency. Last updated September 2026.
FrequencyOS helps a household run the home and stay connected. We keep the data we hold to what the app needs to work, and we never sell it.
What we store
Your email address (to sign you in). The things you put in your household: recipes, meal plans, grocery lists, calendar entries, chores, reminders, Talk signals, and weekly check-in answers. A push token if you turn on Talk alerts. Basic subscription status if you upgrade.
Health things you type in
You can track measures you choose — a weight, a soreness score, whether you did something today, including any exercise measures you choose to track — and each reading is stored with the date you recorded it. You can also pick one from the Spectrum library instead of writing your own, in which case the app records which one you picked and which part of health it belongs to — sleep, food, substances, circumstance and so on — so the map can show what you are and are not tracking. You can also keep a plan with phases, and a care list of appointments to book, tests to ask for, referrals to chase and questions to bring, each with its status and any result you write down. Some of that is health information about you and it can be specific: the name of a test, the specialist you were referred to, what came back. It is stored so the app can show it back to you, and for nothing else. This part is yours alone. Unlike the household data above, your plan, your metrics and their readings, and your care list are visible only to you — no one else in your household can read them, not even a household admin, and that is enforced by the database rather than by the screen. Nothing here is scored, ranked or judged against a target, and none of it is used to advertise to you or shared with anyone.
Data about other people
Some of what a household keeps is about someone other than you, so it is worth saying plainly. If you add a household member who doesn’t have their own account — a child, say — we store the name you give them and the calendar entries, chores and reminders you attach to them. If you invite someone by email, we store the address you typed so we can send the invite, and we keep it whether or not they ever accept. Those people never agreed to anything with us, so treat adding them as your call to make: only add someone you have the standing to add, and use the name you would be comfortable them seeing. This data lives inside your household and is visible to your household the way the rest of it is. An invited address is kept for up to 48 hours after the invite is revoked, accepted or expires, then deleted. A household member without an account can be archived by an admin; their name and calendar stay with the household until the household is deleted.
How we use it
Only to run the app for you and your household — show your cookbook, sync your calendar, deliver a Talk signal, generate your grocery list. We do not use your data for advertising, and we do not track you across other apps or sites.
What we never do
We never sell your data. We never license household insights. We never read your Talk signals for content — a Talk signal carries no message, by design.
Who can see your data
Members of your household can see shared household data (recipes, calendar, grocery, Talk signals, Tend sessions). Your plan, your metrics and their readings, your care list, your daily regulation state and your sleep verdicts are yours alone and are never visible to anyone else in the household. Your weekly check-in and Two-Key Reveal answers stay hidden until everyone in the household has answered — that lock is enforced by the database, not just the screen. No one outside your household can see your data.
Sleep tracking
If you turn on sleep tracking on the You tab, FrequencyOS reads how long you slept straight from your phone — from Health Connect on Android or Apple Health on iOS. We don’t save that number. Each day, your phone compares that night to your own recent typical nights and keeps only the coarse result — short, typical, or long — never the minutes. That comparison happens on your phone; raw sleep data never leaves it. Your sleep verdicts are never sold and never shared with anyone, including the people in your household — not even a household admin can read them. (Whether you’ve turned sleep tracking on is an ordinary setting, visible to your household like any other; what it finds is what stays private.) You can revoke access any time in your phone’s Health Connect settings — that stops any new reading from happening, but on its own it doesn’t delete what’s already saved. To delete it, turn sleep tracking off on the You tab in the app: that’s what erases every verdict already saved, not just future ones.
Sharing how you’ve been
On the You tab, you can choose to let your household see when you’ve had a hard week — based on how you’ve been logging your daily state in Restwick, not on your weekly check-in or Two-Key Reveal answers (those stay hidden the way this page already describes), and never on your sleep data. What’s shared is a single yes-or-no: that it happened, not which days or what state you were in. It only works both ways — you see the same about them only while you’re sharing too. Turning it off deletes the setting entirely, and from that moment neither of you can see the other. If your partner turns it off, you aren’t told; sharing simply stops.
Deleting your account
You can delete your account and personal data at any time from the You tab → Delete account. This is immediate and can’t be undone. Shared household data created with others remains for the rest of the household.
Payments
Subscriptions are handled by Stripe on the web, and by Apple or Google (via RevenueCat) in the mobile apps. We store only your plan status, never your card details. Deleting your account cancels any subscription we hold for your household.
