Common questions
How do I add another child?
Open Settings (the gear icon) and tap "Add Child." Multiple kid profiles are free.
Do I have to pay?
No. Anchor is entirely free. There is no subscription or trial.
Is my data private?
Yes. We never sell your data, we don't run ads, and everything Anchor knows about your kid is what you chose to share — deletable at any time. See our Privacy Policy for the full picture.
How do I delete my account?
Go to Settings, scroll to the bottom, and tap "Delete Account." This removes your readable personal data and every profile in your account. A keyed one-way deletion identifier is retained for up to 24 months for abuse prevention and auditing; it cannot be used to contact you. You can also email us and we'll do it for you.
Is this therapy?
No. Anchor is educational guidance built on published developmental research. It doesn't diagnose, treat, or replace professional help. If you or your kid are in crisis, use the resources below.
