Privacy Policy
Last updated: August 29, 2026
Morning Manna is a Bible alarm clock app made by K-Bridge LLC (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what the app stores, where, and why. The short version: almost everything stays on your phone. The app does not ask for your name, email address or location, shows no advertising, and does not sell or share your data with anyone for marketing.
1. What stays on your phone
The following is stored only on your device and is never uploaded to us:
- Alarms and settings — times, days, sound and snooze preferences.
- Listening history — which chapters you woke to and on which days. This powers your week strip, streak and Journey.
- Journal entries, including any you star.
- Favourites (Premium).
- Downloaded chapters — audio and text cached so your alarm plays even without a connection.
We cannot read any of this. It is deleted when you uninstall the app or clear its data, and the app itself offers a “Reset progress” control. Because we have no copy, we cannot restore it for you.
2. What the app sends to our services
Morning Manna is built on Google Firebase. To deliver content and run groups, the app communicates with the following, all operated by Google on our behalf:
Anonymous sign-in
On first launch the app creates an anonymous account through Firebase Authentication. This is a random identifier with no name, email or phone number attached. It lets the app fetch Scripture audio and lets your subscription and group membership belong to your device. If you uninstall the app or clear its data, that identifier is lost and a new one is created — including any group membership tied to it.
Scripture content
The app downloads chapter metadata and audio from our content service (Firebase Cloud Firestore and Cloud Storage). These requests carry your anonymous identifier and a device-integrity token (Firebase App Check), which helps us make sure requests come from the genuine app. No listening data is sent back.
Groups
Groups are optional. If you create or join one, the following is stored in Cloud Firestore:
- The group's name and its invite code.
- The display name you choose when you join. This can be anything; it does not have to be your real name.
- Your membership, linked to your anonymous identifier.
- Notes written by the group's leader, and Amens on those notes. Leader notes are automatically deleted after a short period — daily notes within days, weekly notes within weeks.
- A daily “gathered” signal — a record that you woke to the chapter on a given day — so the group can show how many members gathered. Other members only ever see a count, and counts below five are not shown.
- If you report a leader's note, a copy of that note and the reason you gave, so a person can review it.
Group leaders can see how many members a group has. Nobody — including the leader — is shown a list of who gathered on a given morning.
Subscriptions
Purchases are made through Google Play (or the App Store on iOS) and managed by RevenueCat, a subscription service. We receive your subscription status and an anonymous identifier so the app can unlock Premium. We never receive your payment card, billing address or store account details; those stay with Google or Apple under their own privacy policies.
Our newsletter
If you choose to join our giving newsletter, you sign up on a page run by beehiiv, our newsletter provider, and give them your email address. The app itself does not collect it. beehiiv's privacy policy governs that list; you can unsubscribe from any email.
3. What we don't do
- No advertising, and no advertising identifiers.
- No analytics or tracking SDKs. The app does not report how you use it.
- No location, contacts, camera, microphone or photo access.
- No selling, renting or sharing of personal data with third parties for their own purposes.
4. Permissions the app asks for
On Android the app asks for the ability to schedule exact alarms, show notifications, and appear over the lock screen when an alarm rings. It may also ask you to exclude it from battery optimisation so alarms fire reliably. These permissions are used only to wake you; they collect nothing.
5. Children
Morning Manna is not directed at children under 13, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Groups are private and joined only by an invite code shared person to person.
6. Where data is stored, and for how long
Cloud data is stored on Google's servers, which may be located in the United States or elsewhere. Anonymous accounts and group memberships are kept until the app is uninstalled or its data cleared, or until you leave the group. Leader notes expire automatically as described above. Reports are kept for as long as needed to review them.
7. Your choices and rights
- You can use the app without ever joining a group or subscribing; in that case the only cloud data about you is an anonymous identifier.
- You can leave a group at any time from inside the app, which removes your membership.
- You can delete everything on your device by uninstalling the app or clearing its data.
- If you would like us to delete group data linked to your device, or have any question about your data, email support@morningmanna.app. Because we hold no name or email for you, we may ask for details that help us find the right anonymous account — for example the group's name and the display name you used.
If you are in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom or California, you have additional rights under local law, including the right to access and delete personal data we hold; the same email address is the way to exercise them.
8. Changes to this policy
If we change how the app handles data — for example, when we add an optional account backup — we will update this page and the date at the top, and the app will point to the new version.
