Privacy choices
Manage your myHealthRoutine choices
The controls below stay with you. System-setting names can vary slightly by Apple device and OS version.
Edit or delete records
Use History or the Health Timeline to update or delete a reading or event. Manage food records in Food & nutrition and caffeine, alcohol and sugar records in the intake log. These records stay on that device and are not synced through iCloud.
Apple Health
Choose whether to connect Apple Health from myHealthRoutine settings. You can review or revoke workout, step-count, sleep, State of Mind, heart-rate, high-heart-rate-event, blood-pressure, pulse, caffeine, alcohol or sugar permissions in the Health app or Apple system settings. State of Mind timeline access requires iOS or iPadOS 18 or later. Copies already written to Apple Health and information displayed from Apple Health are managed there.
myDailyTasks medication rituals
Choose whether a completed medication ritual in myDailyTasks is shared with myHealthRoutine from the relevant medication-ritual control in myDailyTasks. The myDailyTasks connection switch in myHealthRoutine Settings stops new imports without deleting events already added to the Timeline. Meal reminders and cross-device sharing have separate controls.
Notifications and Watch reminders
Change app reminder settings or disable notification permission in Apple system settings. Removing permission prevents future notification delivery; it does not delete the underlying Health Timeline item.
Product analytics
Aggregate product analytics is off by default. The introduction offers an optional analytics switch and remembers your choice. Leaving it off or skipping setup keeps analytics off. To change it, open myHealthRoutine Settings, choose Analytics, then turn Share aggregate product analytics on or off. Turning it off immediately deletes any analytics batch still waiting on that device and stops new analytics counts. It cannot identify and remove a batch already sent because the stored data contains no account, device or persistent analytics identifier and is retained only in aggregate for three months.
Local storage
myHealthRoutine does not use iCloud to sync app records. Its private store is excluded from device backups, so records stay on the device where they were created. Use CSV or report export when you need a separate copy, and protect exported health information carefully.
An earlier-version migration recovery copy may remain in private storage for 30 days after myHealthRoutine confirms that its records were safely merged. An unchanged, confirmed copy is then removed without being re-imported. Changed or unreadable recovery material is preserved to avoid silent data loss; contact support if you need help removing it.
Food, intake and meals
Open Today → Food & nutrition to inspect or delete a food record. Use the intake log to edit or delete a caffeine, alcohol or sugar entry. Food diary totals and the intake quick log are separate. Review Apple Health permissions separately for reading other apps’ intake and storing your own entries.
Turn Meal Reminders from myDailyTasks off in Settings to stop those prompts. This does not delete your food diary. Edit Today only changes which areas are visible and their order on this device; it does not delete records.
Companion connection controls
Turn the myDailyTasks connection off in myHealthRoutine to stop future receipt exchange. In compatible myDailyTasks builds, its separate cross-device check setting controls the planner’s iCloud bridge. These controls do not delete actual readings or existing journal entries. Turning a connection off is not a cloud-data deletion request; contact support for help with existing companion receipts.
Exports
Delete exported CSV files and saved reports from the location where you placed them. myHealthRoutine cannot remove a copy after it has been shared with another person or service.
