Compleat is a Munro-bagging field notebook for Scottish hillwalkers. It runs entirely on your iPhone or iPad, keeps every record on your device, and does not require an account, a sign-in, or an internet connection to work.
What Compleat stores, and where
Everything you enter — the hills you've climbed, dates, weather notes, routes in your own words, companions, summit photos, and your app settings — is written only to:
- a local database stored in the app's Application Support folder, and
- the app's own Documents folder, for summit photos.
None of this ever leaves your device. There is no cloud sync, no backend, and no account system.
Location
Compleat only reads your location when you tap "Use my position" on the Tally screen. That single reading is used in memory to calculate the straight-line distance to the nearest Munro you haven't climbed, and is then discarded — it is never stored or sent anywhere. You can use the app fully without ever granting location access, by setting a home base instead.
Camera and photo library
If you choose to attach a summit photo to an ascent, Compleat asks for camera or photo library access at that moment. The photo is saved only in the app's local storage. It is never uploaded or shared unless you personally choose to share an ascent through the system share sheet.
Notifications
Compleat can schedule a weekly local reminder suggesting your next hill. This is scheduled entirely on your device using Apple's notification framework. No server is involved, and the reminder is never sent anywhere.
Analytics, advertising and tracking
Compleat contains no analytics software development kits, no advertising networks, and no tracking of any kind. Compleat does not use the App Tracking Transparency framework because it does not track you or share data with anyone.
Third parties
Compleat does not share any information with any third party, because it does not collect any information to share. The hill list itself is drawn from the published Database of British and Irish Hills, which is bundled inside the app and does not involve any network request.
Children's privacy
Compleat does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children, because it does not collect information from anyone at all.
Deleting your data
Deleting Compleat from your device permanently deletes everything it stored, because nothing is held anywhere else.
