Which platforms is Yak on?

Android phones: Google Play, Indus, or GetApps. Fire tablets: Amazon Appstore. This site is for information and support.

Does Yak sell my data?

No. Yak does not sell your data or share it for advertising. Yak is local-first by default, with no in-app ads and no third-party analytics SDKs. Read our privacy policy for full details.

Can I import subscriptions from another app?
