For the current DoseBuilt TestFlight beta · Updated October 11, 2026
A quick guide to where your data goes and the choices you control. Reading this page does not enable cloud uploads, AI sharing or notifications. For full details, read the Privacy Notice and Beta Terms.
Fitness logs and backups
Your workouts, food, water, weight, saved foods, goals and training settings are saved on your device first. Each tracking account has a separate local workspace. Signing in does not automatically copy or upload guest logs.
Automatic cloud upload starts off. When you explicitly enable it for your account on this device, your fitness records and later saved changes upload to DoseBuilt’s Supabase-hosted database while the app is open and connected. Imported chart history can be included. You can also upload a backup manually. Up to five cloud backup versions are kept. Cloud backups are not end-to-end encrypted.
Appearance, workout sounds and local rest-alert preferences stay on-device. Coach conversations, meal photos, sign-in credentials and payment information are excluded from fitness backups. Product push choices and device registrations are stored separately with your account.
Cloud records from other devices are not automatically merged or restored. A full restore replaces this device’s fitness records after review and turns automatic upload off until you enable it again. Import data pauses upload during replacement, then follows your existing setting. Turning upload off stops future automatic uploads; it does not delete existing cloud versions or recall a request already sent.
Export data makes an Excel spreadsheet for reviewing your records. Export backup in Backup files makes the full backup used for restoration. Exported files contain private, unencrypted fitness information. Choose a private destination and share them deliberately.
Food search and scanning
Everyday foods include an offline USDA SR Legacy 2018 reference. Live food searches and barcode lookups send the search text or barcode to Open Food Facts. Barcode camera frames stay on your device. Remote food images contact their image hosts. Check current package labels when database entries differ.
AI Coach and meal estimates
AI sharing requires your explicit agreement for your DoseBuilt account on this device or browser. Buying or restoring membership does not grant that permission. When you send a Coach message, it goes through DoseBuilt to OpenAI for a reply.
After a new agreement, recent conversation and fitness summaries start on unless you previously turned either off. You can change both in Coach. Recent conversation includes up to three question-and-answer pairs. In current weight-trend builds, automatic fitness summaries describe manually logged weight trends, weigh-in support and workout progress. They exclude recorded intake, food-log coverage and calorie targets. Your selected weight goal and weekly rate may go to DoseBuilt for validation, but are excluded from the automatic summary sent to OpenAI. Anything you type or retain in included conversation can still be shared.
Scan meal and Describe food send your description and any selected meal photo only when you tap Estimate meal. Selecting or taking a photo alone does not send it. Food estimates do not send your Coach conversation or fitness history. Meal photos are excluded from your diary and fitness backups; only the foods you review and confirm are logged.
Coach conversations are temporary and excluded from fitness backups. The AI handlers do not save server conversations or meal photos and request that OpenAI disable saved response storage. This does not guarantee zero retention; provider safety, abuse-monitoring and legal retention can still apply.
Review or remove permission in Account → DoseBuilt membership → AI privacy; depending on the screen, open Manage Your Membership first. Removal blocks new Coach and food AI requests on that device and cancels pending app work. Information already sent cannot be recalled. Remove permission separately on other devices. See DoseBuilt AI and the AI sharing details for context controls and retention limits.
Weight trends
Weight shows recorded weigh-ins, a smoothed trend and a separate seven-day trend pace when enough supporting readings are available. The trend does not measure fat or muscle change. Automatic calorie-target adjustments are unavailable. Profile-based setup and targets you enter remain available. Coach cannot change your logs or targets.
Shopping
Shop uses Shopify for products, carts and checkout. The app keeps its cart reference on your device, separately from your tracking account and the website cart. The app does not send workout, food or weight records to Shopify. Shopify handles checkout, orders and store subscriptions with its own account and privacy choices.
Signing out of your tracking account does not clear your Shop cart or sign you out of Shopify. Store account and payment links may open another browser or app. Physical-goods purchases are real store transactions, even during TestFlight testing.
Notifications and help
Optional product push consent is separate from device notification permission, email preferences and local rest alerts. Review it in Account → Sounds & notifications. The Privacy Notice explains stored consent records and how withdrawal works.
Help prepares a report with the app build, platform, selected area and local save status. It does not automatically attach fitness logs, account details, credentials, sign-in links or raw errors. Review the report and decide whether to send it through your email or sharing app. Check any text or screenshots you add for private information.
