  • User accounts or login credentials
  • Timer data or task lists
  • Personal preferences or settings
2. Local Data Storage

Locally stored data includes:

  • Timer and stopwatch settings
  • Task lists and to-do items
  • Language and theme preferences
  • Sound and notification settings
  • Interval and workout configurations
