What the app does
GTA Companion is a second-screen reference for players. It shows information Rockstar Games has announced about GTA VI, and for GTA V it offers Story Mode cheat references, an offline map, collectible checklists, saved items and private notes. It does not connect to your console, PC, game save or game account.
Information saved on your device
The app saves the markers you mark as found, the items you save, your private notes, mission status, recent searches and preferences (platform, spoiler level, appearance and selected game). This is stored in the app's local storage on your device using Apple's on-device storage. There is no account, sign-in or developer server. This information is not sent to the developer as data; session recordings (described below) can show the screens you view, with your notes and anything you type hidden.
Advertising and tracking
The app contains no advertising, does not track you across other companies’ apps or websites, and does not sell or share data for advertising. There is no account registration, cloud sync or third-party crash reporting. The map and catalogues are bundled with the app and work offline.
Analytics and session recordings
The app uses PostHog (PostHog, Inc., servers in the United States) to understand how the app is used and to find problems. PostHog receives:
- App usage events: when the app is installed, opened or moved to the background; when you are asked about notifications and what you choose; when a reminder is scheduled, cancelled or opened; and when the app becomes eligible to ask Apple for a rating and makes that request. The app cannot see whether Apple showed the rating prompt or what you chose.
- Session recordings: pictures of the app’s screens while you use it, so we can see where screens are confusing or broken. Text you type, images, your personal notes and purchase messages are hidden in these recordings. Touches, logs and network activity are not recorded. Recordings are kept for 30 days.
- Device and app information: device type and model, iOS version, app version, language, time zone, screen size and whether you are on Wi-Fi or cellular.
- Network information: PostHog receives your IP address when the app connects and may use it to estimate an approximate location (such as country or city).
The app identifies you only by a random ID created on your device. It never sends your name, email address, Apple Account, payment details or the text of your notes, and it does not link this data to your identity. Usage events are kept for up to one year. Because the data is not linked to who you are, we cannot look up or delete a specific person’s records on request; deleting the app removes its random ID from your device.
Permissions and reminders
The app asks for notification permission only if you turn on More → Reminders. Reminders are scheduled on your device and show only your GTA V checklist progress (for example “Spaceship Parts: 7 of 50 found”), never your notes or saved items. You can turn reminders off in the app or in iOS Settings at any time. The app does not request camera, microphone, location, contacts or photo-library access.
Apple's operating-system, App Store and user-enabled diagnostics services operate under Apple's own settings and policies and are separate from the analytics described above.
Purchases
GTA Companion is free to download. An optional one-time in-app purchase, GTA Companion Premium, unlocks the full GTA V map and unlimited saves and notes. Apple processes the payment through your Apple Account; the developer does not receive your name, payment card or Apple Account details. The app asks Apple's StoreKit service whether Premium has been purchased so it can unlock it, including after reinstalling. Refunds are handled by Apple.
Storage, deletion and backups
In the app, open More → Local data to clear notes, clear saved items, reset progress or reset everything. These controls remove the information from the app's local storage. Deleting the app normally removes its local data. Your device backups (for example iCloud Backup) are controlled by your Apple device settings and may include the app's data until those backups are removed.
Children
The app does not ask for a name, date of birth or age profile. The analytics described above are anonymous and are not used for advertising or to build profiles of individuals. Private notes are free text and are hidden from session recordings; avoid entering sensitive personal information in them.
