I am sure that I cannot. All of the information that you enter is stored COMPLETELY on your phone. There are no backup servers. There is no cloud. It is a very grounded solution. Secondly, I don’t know who is even using iFeelio. The App Store and Google Play Store only give me a few details on downloads (e.g., countries, platforms), and that’s all I know. Furthermore, on the Android version, iFeelio does not even have permission to connect to the internet. The iPhone version would have this as well if I could figure out how to disable the internet permission; I don’t think it is possible. Lastly, another general way to tell if your information is secure is to know whether the company can reset your password. I or anybody involved with the development or management of iFeelio cannot reset your password. As far as I know, all the companies that believe in zero-knowledge (i.e., don’t know your stuff) systems, do NOT have the ability to reset your password. See Spider Oak and BoxCryptor. Other people have to try very hard. The information is stored in a database on the phone, which is password protected and encrypted. There are a few ways in which people COULD get access to your moments and they are not very likely: 1) They have physical access to your phone, figure out your password, and log into iFeelio. 2) They have physical access to your phone, get root access (or jailbreak the phone), and then figure out the password on the encrypted database. 3) They have access to the backup copy of your database, which you can backup to your external hard drive in Android or iTunes on the iPhone, and then they figure out the password to the database. All of these require plenty of extra effort and skills for someone to access. Secure and want to make it more secure. I say all of this and I say it transparently because I want to make iFeelio even more secure. I need help doing this, as I am not a world expert in computer security and I would love to have one on my team. I believe the app is secure (I built it for me and that was my #1 concern) and I know that there are ways to make it even more secure. In conclusion, no, I can’t read what you enter. It is for your eyes and soul only. :-D
