Privacy

SnapAudio collects no data, sends no data, and makes no network connections. That's the whole policy. The rest of this page explains what that means in practice.

What the app stores

SnapAudio saves your settings — device order, custom names and icons, hidden devices, keyboard shortcuts, and how the menu bar and the on-screen notification should look — in the standard macOS preferences file inside its own sandbox container on your Mac. Nobody else can read it, including me. If you delete the app, that file goes with it.

What the app reads

To do its job, SnapAudio asks macOS which audio devices are connected, which ones are currently selected, and what the volume and mute state are. It reads the names macOS reports so it can show them to you. None of that leaves your Mac.

The app has no microphone access, does not record audio, and does not observe what you type. Its keyboard shortcuts are registered with the system, which means macOS tells the app when one of its own combinations is pressed and nothing else.

What the app collects

Nothing. There is no account, no sign-in, no analytics, no crash reporting service, no advertising identifier, and no third-party code of any kind in the app. SnapAudio is sandboxed without any network entitlement, so it cannot open a connection even by accident.

Apple

SnapAudio is sold through the Mac App Store, so the purchase itself is handled by Apple under Apple's privacy policy. If you have opted in to sharing crash data with developers, Apple may show me anonymized crash reports. I never receive your name, your email address, or any identifier from a purchase.

Children

The app is suitable for all ages and, since it collects nothing, it collects nothing from children either.

Changes

If this policy ever changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date at the top, and the change will be noted on the releases page.
