About us
Highness was created in 2020 with a simple goal: to help people track and understand the effects of each strain over time.
Since then, the app has continued to receive updates, improvements, and refinements — always focused on privacy, simplicity, and user experience.
How Highness is built
I'm a UX Designer and I design the entire product — from concept to interface and experience.
The development side, however, is handled by a freelance developer working in Objective-C, which means ongoing costs that come directly out of my own pocket.
On top of that, there are fixed expenses such as:
- Apple Developer Program (€99/year)
- Maintenance and future updates of the app
Despite this, Highness has always been free — and it still is.
Why we're introducing ads
To help cover these costs and keep the project sustainable, we've recently introduced ads in the app.
Ads allow Highness to continue existing and evolving, while keeping the core experience accessible to everyone.
They do not collect personal data and do not affect how your information is handled.
Want to support the project?
If you enjoy using Highness and would like to support its development, there's a simple option:
One-time support (no subscription)
- Directly helps keep the project alive
- Removes ads forever
- No recurring payments, no subscriptions
Supporting Highness is completely optional — the app works normally even if you don't.
Privacy first. Always.
Highness was designed to work without servers.
That means:
- Everything you log is stored only on your own device
- No user tracking
- No data collection
- No access to device information
Your data is 100% yours.
