Private and Helpful
The app is surprisingly helpful and makes it super easy to keep track of places I’ve been. Can be overly sensitive but I’m sure that will get better.

What's New in Aftr
1.0.3
September 25, 2026
## Summary - **First-run backfill (bug):** removing the paywall (56e2db5) also removed the `onChange(entitlements.isEntitled)` hook that started the photo backfill after onboarding. The launch `.task` runs before Photos access is granted, so new users got an empty map. The backfill now starts in the onboarding completion callback. - **Version in Settings (bug):** replaced the hardcoded "Version 0.1.0" with the bundle's `CFBundleShortVersionString (CFBundleVersion)`, which CI stamps from the release tag. - **Review prompt:** the only moment is "the log built itself". The user comes back on a later day, opens a place that passive logging added since they last looked, and closes it. Throttled to once per version, 90+ days apart, nothing in the first 2 days after install or the first 10s of a session, no prompt with a sheet or search open, and none within 10 min of a delete. The rules live in `AftrCore/Engagement/ReviewPromptPolicy` with tests. The old instant post-backfill prompt is removed. - **Settings > About:** new "Rate Aftr on the App Store" row that opens the write-review page. ## Test plan - [x] `swift test`: all suites pass, including 9 new `ReviewPromptPolicyTests` - [x] Simulator build - [x] Fresh install in the simulator: grant Photos during onboarding and finish. `[backfill] start()` fires when onboarding completes (not before) and the backfill chip appears on the map

FAQ
How does Aftr log my visits?
Aftr uses Apple's battery-friendly visit detection to log significant places automatically in the background. Routine spots like home and work fade out, so you don't need to interact with the app.
Is Aftr private?
Yes, Aftr is designed with privacy as a core principle. Your data stays on your device, and the developer has no access to your places, photos, or notes. There are no servers, accounts, or analytics tied to your identity.
Can I see where I've been with Aftr?
Absolutely. Aftr displays your places as glowing stars on a world map, creating a 'constellation' of your life. You can tap on a star to see your full visit timeline and attached photos for that location.
What happens to my old photos with Aftr?
On first launch, Aftr can scan your Camera Roll for GPS-tagged photos from the past year. It uses these to instantly create a map of where you've been, with venues named and photos attached.
Does Aftr have ads?
No, Aftr is free and does not contain any advertisements. The app is committed to a user experience free from ads and data selling.
