Support

iOS deliberately makes enabling a Safari extension a manual, visible step. After installing Reconnect: open Settings → Apps → Safari → Extensions → Reconnect and turn it on. Then set “Allow on Every Website” → “Always Allow.” The in-app “Safari” onboarding step walks you through these exact taps. Once enabled, a calm overlay appears when explicit content shows up in Safari.

No. Reconnect never takes screenshots and never records your screen. Detection of explicit content runs entirely on your iPhone, and nothing about your browsing leaves your device — not to us, and not to a “partner.” See our privacy policy for the full detail.

Your person is someone you choose to reach out to in a hard moment. Adding them is optional. The message is prefilled as warm support — “thinking of you, having a hard moment” — never a confession or a report of what you were doing. Their name and number are stored only on your device, and Reconnect never messages them on your behalf.

You unlock by doing the practice — breathe, name what you’re feeling, receive a verse or prayer, and optionally reach out — followed by a short cooldown. The lockout is the consequence; the practice is the key. You’re never watched into compliance.

Not in this version. We protect Safari deeply on your device, and we’re honest about the limits: no iPhone app can see inside another app’s feed. System-wide protections (a Screen Time shield and app-usage triggers) require additional permissions from Apple and will arrive in a later update. We’ll never give you a false sense of security.

No. The core features work with no login. Reconnect doesn’t require an account and doesn’t use third-party advertising or tracking SDKs.

No. Reconnect is a voluntary tool for someone who wants to change and is choosing it for themselves. It is not a parental-control or surveillance product, and it isn’t designed to monitor anyone against their will.

Your journal, trigger map, and your person’s contact info are stored only on your device. Deleting the app removes them from your phone. Because we don’t collect or store your data on any server, there’s nothing for us to delete on our end.
