PhoneFinder Pro - Privacy Policy

Last Updated: January 2026

Summary: PhoneFinder Pro processes all audio locally on your device. We do not collect, store, or transmit any personal data. Your privacy is fully protected.

1. Information We Collect

We do not collect any personal information.

PhoneFinder Pro is designed with privacy as a core principle:

No user accounts required
No registration or sign-up
No personal data collection
No analytics or tracking
No advertising SDKs

2. How the App Works

PhoneFinder Pro uses your device's microphone to detect specific sounds (claps) and voice commands to help you locate your phone. Here's how we handle this:

Audio Processing

100% On-Device: All audio processing happens locally on your device
No Recording: Audio is analyzed in real-time and immediately discarded
No Storage: We never save or store audio recordings
No Transmission: Audio data never leaves your device

Voice Recognition

Uses Vosk offline speech recognition
The voice model runs entirely on your device
No internet connection required for voice detection
Voice data is never sent to any server

3. Permissions Used

PhoneFinder Pro requires the following permissions:

Permission	Why We Need It
Microphone	To detect claps and voice commands
Accessibility Service	To run detection in the background when the app is closed
Camera (Flashlight)	To flash the light when the alarm triggers
Vibration	To vibrate the phone when triggered
Internet	Only for one-time voice model download (~50MB)

4. Data Storage

The app stores the following data locally on your device only:

Your preference settings (sensitivity, enabled features)
Custom voice trigger phrases you create
Clap training samples (if you use the training feature)

This data is stored in the app's private storage and is deleted when you uninstall the app.

5. Third-Party Services

PhoneFinder Pro uses the following open-source library:

Vosk Speech Recognition: An offline speech recognition engine. The voice model is downloaded once and runs entirely on your device. Vosk does not collect any data. Learn more

We do not use any analytics, advertising, or tracking services.

6. Children's Privacy

PhoneFinder Pro does not collect any personal information from anyone, including children under 13. The app is safe for users of all ages.

7. Security

Since we don't collect or transmit any data, there is no risk of data breach or unauthorized access to your information. All processing happens locally on your device.

8. Changes to This Policy

If we make changes to this privacy policy, we will update the "Last Updated" date above. Continued use of the app after changes constitutes acceptance of the new policy.

10. Your Rights

Since we don't collect any personal data, there is no data to access, modify, or delete. You can uninstall the app at any time, which will remove all locally stored preferences.

Bottom Line: PhoneFinder Pro is a privacy-focused utility app. We don't know who you are, we don't track what you do, and we never will. Your phone, your privacy.
