On September 24 I answered every App Store Connect question from the code and the database instead of guessing. The privacy label comes from what the database actually stores. The advertising-identifier answer is "no" because neither the ad framework nor the tracking-permission framework is linked. The export-compliance answer comes from the encryption key already in the app.

Two answers are easy to get wrong. The home address counts as collecting a physical address, since a parent types it so drive times work and it goes to a distance service, but it isn't device location. And calendar events go under "Other User Content", because Apple has no calendar category.

I put TestFlight first, since it needs only a fraction of the form. Here's the iPhone app's status.
