Quarter on a String

Privacy policy

Last updated October 27, 2026.

Quarter on a String is a free arcade app for iPhone, published by AllButNew LLC. The short version: the app doesn’t collect anything about you.

What the app collects

Nothing. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no crash reporting, and the app makes no network requests of its own. Every game is bundled inside the app and runs offline.

What stays on your phone

Your best scores, the secrets you’ve found, your tickets and the prizes you’ve picked live in the app’s own storage on your iPhone. They never leave it. Deleting the app deletes them.

Game Center

If you’re signed in to Game Center, the app sends your scores and achievements to Apple so they show up on leaderboards. That goes to Apple under your Game Center account and Apple’s privacy policy. I don’t get a copy. If you’re not signed in, nothing is sent.

Sharing

Antipode can make a postcard of your dig. It goes only where you send it, through the iPhone’s own share sheet.

Links

A few links (this page, the support page, the story of how the games were made) open in Safari. Those websites cover what happens there.

Children

The app collects no data from anyone, children included.

Changes

If a future version ever needs data, this page will say so before that version ships, and the App Store privacy label will change with it.
