Privacy is the foundation.
Echo was built with a simple premise: your thoughts should be yours alone. Most journaling apps are built to keep you scrolling or to harvest your emotional data. Echo is built for you.
No Tracking
We do not use analytics. We do not use cookies. We do not track your location, your device ID, or your usage patterns. We have no interest in who you are, only in providing you a space to be yourself.
Local Encryption
Your entries are encrypted on your device using industry-standard protocols. When you save a journal entry, it is scrambled into unreadable noise before it ever touches a server. Only you hold the key.
No Data Selling
We do not sell your data. We do not share your data with advertisers, third parties, or partners. We couldn't if we wanted to—we can't read it.
AI Reflections
If you choose to use our weekly AI reflections, your entries are processed securely and privately. These insights are for you alone and are never used to train global models.
