What we collect
Nothing. There are no accounts, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising and no tracking. We have no server for this app, so we never receive anything from it.
What stays on your devices
- Your videos are either copied into the app on the device you use as the Player (usually the iPad), or played in place from folders you link (a folder in Files, iCloud Drive, or a USB-C drive or SD card). The app only reads the folders you choose, keeps a bookmark so it can open them again, and makes small thumbnails on the Player. Your videos are never uploaded by the app.
- Between your two devices, the app sends video titles, lengths, sizes, small thumbnail pictures and playback commands (play, pause, volume and so on). This goes directly from one device to the other over Apple's MultipeerConnectivity, encrypted, and doesn't use the internet.
- Settings such as the device role, the 4-digit pairing code, the device name and the volume are stored on each device.
Local Network permission
iOS asks whether the app may find and connect to devices on your local network. The app uses this only to connect your phone and your iPad to each other.
Children
The app is set up and controlled by an adult. It collects no information from anyone, including children.
Deleting your data
On the Player, Settings › Video sources removes a linked folder (your files stay where they are) and swiping a copied video deletes the copy. Deleting the app removes everything it stored.
Changes
If this policy changes we'll update this page and the date above.
