Daili is a daily budgeting app developed and published by Corbin Caldwell. Daili has no accounts, advertising, analytics, or backend service that receives your data. Your budget records, receipt images, and microphone audio are not uploaded.
Daili stores the following in the app's private storage so its features work:
This information is processed locally and is not sent to the developer or another company. Android cloud backup is disabled for Daili, so the operating system is instructed not to back up this app data to Google Drive.
Receipt scanning and voice entry use machine-learning models that run on your device. When you turn either feature on, Daili downloads the required model files over HTTPS from Daili's GitHub Releases. If a file cannot be fetched from GitHub, Daili retries it from a public, read-only Amazon S3 bucket the developer maintains as a mirror. That bucket holds nothing but the same model files, and it accepts downloads only — it cannot receive anything from your device. No budget records, expense details, photos, receipt text, or microphone audio are included in requests to either host.
As with any file download, the host serving the file may receive standard connection information, such as your IP address and user agent, in order to deliver it. GitHub handles that information under the GitHub General Privacy Statement, and Amazon Web Services handles it under the AWS Privacy Notice. Daili does not use these requests to identify or track you.
Attribution and license terms for these optional files are available on the Model Licenses and Notices page.
The developer does not collect, sell, or share your personal data. Daili contains no advertising, analytics, or crash-reporting service. User-created data is accessed and processed only on your device.
Daili never displays an automatic review prompt. If you choose the Rate Daili link in Settings, Daili opens its Play Store review page. If you submit a rating or written review, Google Play—not Daili—handles that information under the Google Privacy Policy. No budget, expense, photo, receipt, or microphone data is included in the request.
You can use Daili's core manual budgeting features without camera or microphone access.
Daili keeps your records in Android's app-private storage, disables Android cloud backup, and uses HTTPS for optional model downloads. Other apps cannot normally access Daili's private files unless the device's security has been compromised.
Budget and expense records remain on your device until you delete them or reset Daili. Turning off an AI feature removes that feature's downloaded model files. The in-app Reset app action removes your saved budget, expenses, recurring expenses, attached and cached photos, downloaded models, notification schedules, and settings. Clearing Daili's storage in Android settings or uninstalling the app also removes its local files. The developer cannot recover any of this information because the developer never receives it.
Daili does not create user accounts, so there is no separate account to delete.
Daili does not knowingly collect personal information from children or anyone else. Parents and guardians should decide whether a budgeting app is appropriate for a child.
If a future version changes how data is handled, this page and its "Last updated" date will be revised before that version is released.
