Sati — the Pali word for mindfulness — brings a daily teaching, gentle mood check-ins, meditation, and a garden that grows with your practice. Entirely on your iPhone. Entirely private.
A note on what Sati is
Sati is a wellness app. Its practices — breathing, meditation, reflection, and gentle self-observation — are intended to support general well-being in everyday life.
Sati is not a medical device and provides no medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. It is not a substitute for care from a physician, therapist, or other qualified health professional. If you have concerns about your physical or mental health, please talk to a professional.
If you are in crisis or thinking about harming yourself, please seek help immediately. In the United States, call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), or contact your local emergency services.

Open Sati → Settings and confirm the check-ins you want are enabled with the right times. Then check iPhone Settings → Notifications → Sati and make sure notifications are allowed. Focus modes and scheduled summaries can also delay them.
Everything lives only on your iPhone — there is no account and no cloud copy. Your history is included in your normal iPhone backups (iCloud or computer), so restoring your phone restores Sati. Deleting the app deletes its data.
The Mind Garden is a picture of your actual practice: each mood check-in grows a grass tuft, each meditation places a stone, each visit to Wisdom sends a ripple, and steady sitting blooms a lotus. Nothing in it is decorative — an empty pond simply means the season hasn't started yet.
The widget refreshes each midnight and after you open the app. If it seems stuck, remove the widget from your Home Screen and add it again — iOS occasionally caches widget timelines.
Every teaching is drawn from published sources — primarily F. Max Müller's 1881 public-domain translation of the Dhammapada, with brief attributed quotes from modern teachers. The complete list is in the app: Settings → Sources & translations. Nothing is invented.
No. Nothing in Sati requires a network — every quote, meditation, and feature is built in and works in airplane mode.
Privacy policy
Effective July 6, 2026 · Applies to Sati for iOS, version 1.0 and later
Nothing. Sati has no accounts, no analytics, no advertising, no third-party SDKs, and makes no network connections. We never see your check-ins, notes, meditation history, or anything else — and neither does anyone we work with, because we don't work with anyone.
Your mood check-ins, notes, meditation sessions, saved teachings, and settings are stored only in the app's private storage on your iPhone. A small summary (your practice streak) is shared with Sati's Home Screen widget through Apple's App Group mechanism — this also never leaves your device. Your data is included in your standard iPhone backups, under Apple's backup protections.
Check-in reminders and the Bell of Mindfulness are local notifications, scheduled entirely on your device. Enabling them is optional and controlled in Sati's Settings; nothing about them is transmitted anywhere.
Delete the app and your data goes with it (it will persist in any device backups you keep, under your control). There is nothing to request from us, because we hold nothing.
Sati is not directed at children and collects no data from anyone, of any age.
If a future version of Sati ever changes any of the above — for example, by adding an optional online feature — this policy will be updated here first, with a new effective date, and the app will make the change clear before anything is enabled.
