NSMS (com.napps.sms) does not collect, store or share any of your personal data. Your messages and contacts stay on your phone, and the developer receives nothing from the app: no analytics, no crash reports, no ads and no accounts.
NSMS is an SMS and MMS app, so it needs access to your messages and contacts to work. It uses them only on your phone, to show, send and organise your conversations.
| Data or permission | What NSMS uses it for | Sent to the developer? |
|---|---|---|
| SMS and MMS (read, receive, send, write) | Showing your conversations, receiving new messages, sending your replies | No |
| Contacts | Showing names and photos next to phone numbers, and picking recipients | No |
| Phone state | Choosing the right SIM on dual-SIM phones | No |
| Phone calls | Calling a contact when you tap Call | No |
| Notifications | Alerting you to new messages | No |
| Storage | Saving backups and attachments you choose to save | No |
| Internet and network state | Sending and downloading MMS through your carrier | No |
| Alarms and boot | Sending messages you schedule, and restoring them after a restart | No |
NSMS has no servers and sends nothing to the developer. Data leaves your phone only in these cases:
Messages you send: SMS and MMS go through your mobile carrier, the same as with any messaging app.
Emoji font: the app may download a standard emoji font through Google Play services. No personal data is sent with that request.
Things you choose to share: for example, a backup file you copy elsewhere, or a message you share to another app. These go only where you send them.
If you turn on the optional call-blocking integration, NSMS asks the blocking app you picked whether a number is blocked. That check happens on your phone, between the two apps.
Your messages are stored in Android's own message database on your phone. NSMS keeps a copy in its private app storage, so it can show them quickly.
Backups are saved only when you make one, to the QKSMS/Backups folder on your phone. They stay there until you delete them.
Debug logs are written only if you turn on logging in Settings, to the QKSMS/Logs folder on your phone. They never leave the phone unless you send them.
To delete everything NSMS stores, uninstall the app or clear its data in Android Settings. Messages in Android's message database stay until you delete them there.
The developer cannot see, recover or delete your data, because none of it is ever sent to the developer.
NSMS is not directed at children under 13 and collects no data from anyone, including children.
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted on this page with a new date at the top. A change that starts collecting any data would be announced in the app's release notes before it takes effect.
