Values Card Sort for iPhone and iPad · Last updated July 8, 2026

Values Card Sort ("the app") is designed so that your personal reflections stay personal.

What we collect

Nothing. The app has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, and no third-party services. We, the developer, never see your data.

Where your data lives

Everything you create in the app, including your card sorts, rankings, reflection notes, and committed actions, is stored on your device.

If you turn on Sync with iCloud in Settings, your completed sorts are stored in your personal iCloud account so they appear on your other devices and survive the loss of a phone. This data moves directly between your devices and Apple's iCloud service under your Apple Account; it is never accessible to the developer. Apple's iCloud terms and privacy policy apply to that storage.

Sharing

Your results leave the app only when you choose to share or export them yourself, for example by sharing a PDF.

Optional permissions

  • Notifications. Used only if you turn on a check-in reminder. Scheduled locally on your device.
  • Face ID / Touch ID. Used only if you turn on the app lock, to unlock the app. Biometric data never leaves your device and is handled entirely by iOS.

Children

The app is a general-audience personal reflection tool and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, including children.

Disclaimer

Values Card Sort is a self-reflection exercise based on the public-domain Personal Values Card Sort (Miller, C'de Baca, Matthews & Wilbourne, 2001). It is not a medical device, does not provide diagnoses or treatment, and is not a substitute for care from a qualified professional.
