Where Does one sec Store Interventions?
one sec breathing interventions and app rules with iCloud sync on iOS.
Last updated
one sec inserts a breathing pause before chosen apps, keeping target app rules, delay lengths, intention prompts and statistics in app storage with iCloud sync across devices. Enforcement rides on Screen Time and Shortcuts automation.
The mechanism matters for backups: rules sync, but the Shortcuts automations triggering them are iOS system items per device. Reinstalls restore the rule set on login while automations need re-linking by hand on each phone.
Where one sec stores this, by platform
App sandbox plus iCloud (rules sync; automations per device)
Configure target apps and breathing length in-app, then link Shortcuts automations per app. Statistics accumulate on the account. Reinstalling restores rules; relink automations after.
Frequently asked questions
why did one sec stop working after reinstalling
The rules synced back but the Shortcuts automations did not. Recreate one automation per target app pointing at one sec, and confirm Screen Time permissions again.
does one sec track app usage
It counts its own interventions and shows Screen Time backed summaries where permitted. Detailed per minute histories live with Apple, not in the app.
