Your encounters stay yours

AnimAtlas is local-first. Full-resolution originals remain in private storage. Exact coordinates are excluded from identification and GBIF requests, but Apple Maps can receive encounter coordinates for country resolution and visible-area boundaries derived from encounter pins when maps render. Private iCloud sync is on by default when available. Manage AnimAtlas iCloud access in iOS Settings. Local capture remains available when sync is unavailable.

  • No public feed
