Airmony

Privacy Policy

Last updated: 2026-11-04

Airmony is an air instrument: you play music with your hands in front of the front camera. This policy explains, in plain language, what the app does and does not do with your information. Hand tracking, sound and clip processing happen on your device. Airmony does not collect your personal data. Purchases and restoring purchases communicate with Apple (iPhone, iPad, Mac) or Google Play (Android).

The short version

• Everything runs on your device. All hand tracking, sound, and recording happens locally on your iPhone, iPad, Mac or Android device.
• No data is collected. Airmony has no accounts, no sign-up, and no analytics or tracking of any kind.
• Play offline. Playing and processing clips work without a network. Purchases and restoring purchases use Apple's or Google Play's services. Airmony does not upload camera frames, voice recordings, clips or usage data to a developer server.
• Hand tracking stays on-device. Frames analyzed for hand tracking are discarded. When you choose to record, the camera preview is included in your clip. You control whether that clip is saved or shared.
• Clips you save go only to your own photo library (iPhone, iPad, Mac) or your device's gallery (Android), and only when you choose to save them.
• Your voice is optional and stays in your clip. If you enable Voice before recording with wired or Bluetooth headphones connected, the microphone captures your voice on your device and mixes it into that clip, and nothing else. Turn the toggle off to record without the microphone.

What Airmony accesses, and why

The settings paths below are the iPhone and iPad ones. On a Mac, the same permissions are in System Settings → Privacy & Security. On Android, they are in Settings → Apps → Airmony → Permissions.

Camera (required to play)

Airmony uses the front camera to see your hands so it can turn your gestures into notes and chords. Each camera frame is processed on the device in real time to estimate your hand position; the app's hand-tracking does not save these frames. Camera frames are never recorded by the tracker, never stored, and never transmitted off the device. On Android, hand tracking runs with a model bundled in the app (Google MediaPipe) and does not download anything.

iOS and Android ask for camera permission the first time you play. You can change this at any time in Settings → Airmony → Camera (iPhone, iPad) or Settings → Apps → Airmony → Permissions → Camera (Android). Without camera access, the instrument cannot be played.

Microphone (optional, only while recording a clip)

Airmony can record your voice while you record a performance clip, so you can sing along with your playing. The Voice toggle beside the record button is off by default. Wired or Bluetooth headphones must be connected to enable it, to avoid recording the speaker back into the microphone. Turn it on before recording to include your voice. Your choice is remembered. The microphone is active only while a clip is being recorded, never while you simply play.

Your voice is captured and mixed into the clip's audio track entirely on-device. It is never analyzed for any other purpose, never stored outside the clip itself, and never transmitted off your device by Airmony. The clip stays in the app's local storage until you save it to your photo library or gallery, share it, or discard it.

iOS and Android ask for microphone permission the first time you record with the Voice toggle on. If you decline, or turn the toggle off, clips are recorded with Airmony's instrument audio only. You can change this at any time in Settings → Airmony → Microphone (iPhone, iPad) or Settings → Apps → Airmony → Permissions → Microphone (Android).

Photo library or gallery: add only (optional)

If you record a performance clip and tap Save to Photos, Airmony asks for add-only access to your photo library so it can place that single video in your library. Airmony uses the most limited access iOS offers for this: it can add the clips you choose to save and cannot read, browse, or delete any of your existing photos or videos. Clips are saved only when you explicitly ask. You can manage this in Settings → Airmony → Photos.

On Android, Save puts the clip in your device's shared video folder (Movies/Airmony) through the system media store. Airmony asks for no storage permission and cannot read, browse or delete your other photos or videos. Manage or delete the clip from your gallery app.

Notifications (optional, free trial reminder only)

If you start the free trial of Airmony+, Airmony asks for permission to send notifications (on Android, from Android 13; before that version, notifications are on by default). It uses it for one thing: a single reminder, scheduled on your device, 2 days before the trial ends. The reminder is removed if you cancel or once the trial ends. Nothing is sent to a server, and declining changes nothing else in the app.

You can change this at any time in Settings → Airmony → Notifications (iPhone, iPad) or Settings → Apps → Airmony → Notifications (Android).

Clip recording (local only)

On iPhone, iPad and Mac, recording a clip uses Apple's on-device screen-capture (ReplayKit). On Android, Airmony builds the clip itself inside the app (camera image, interface and sound mixed on the device); it does not record your screen and does not use Android's screen-capture permission. If the Voice toggle is on, your voice from the microphone is mixed into the clip's audio on-device (see the Microphone section above). The resulting video file is written to the app's local storage on your device. You can then save it to your photo library or gallery, share it, or discard it, which deletes the file. If you apply Face Blur (Airmony+), on-device face tracking (Apple Vision on iPhone, iPad and Mac, a model bundled in the app on Android) follows the main face live and applies the selected effect underneath the interface. This live effect is included in the recording. It does not hide every face or guarantee anonymity when tracking is lost; review the entire clip before sharing. Face tracking data is used only for this effect and is not sent to a server. Airmony never uploads these recordings; sharing is entirely your choice and handled by the system share sheet you control.

What Airmony does NOT do

• It does not collect personal information.
• It does not require or offer an account or sign-in.
• It does not include analytics, advertising, or any third-party tracking SDKs.
• Playing and processing clips work offline. Purchases and restoring purchases communicate with Apple or Google Play and require a network connection.
• It does not use the microphone outside clip recording, and it does not transmit your voice anywhere. Your voice is captured only while you record a clip with the Voice toggle on, and it goes only into that clip.
• It does not store or transmit your camera frames. Your camera view appears in a video only when you choose to record a clip, and that clip stays under your control.
• It does not read, browse, or upload your existing photos or videos.
• It does not access your location, contacts, health data, or other personal data.

Purchases

Airmony+ is offered as an auto-renewing subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. The monthly subscription can start with a free trial. All payments are processed by Apple through your App Store account, or by Google through your Google Play account on Android. Airmony never sees or stores your payment details. The app checks your purchase status on the device through Apple's StoreKit or Google Play Billing. On Android, manage or cancel your subscription in Google Play (Payments & subscriptions). Google's own privacy policy applies to what Google Play processes. On Android, Airmony may show Google Play's in-app review dialog; Google Play handles it and Airmony receives no personal data from it.

Your settings are stored on your device

Your preferences (scale, instrument, octaves, effects, and similar choices) are saved locally on your device using the system's standard app storage (iOS or Android) so the app remembers them between sessions. This information stays on the device and is not collected by us. On Android, Airmony turns app backup off, so these settings are not copied to Google's cloud backup. Removing the app removes these settings.

Children

Airmony does not collect personal data from children. It has no in-app accounts or analytics. Apple or Google handles purchases, and the user controls sharing, as described above.

Sharing

When you tap Share, iOS and Android present their standard share sheet and you choose where the clip goes. Anything you send from there is governed by the privacy policy of the app or service you send it to (for example, Instagram, TikTok, or Messages). Airmony itself sends nothing on your behalf.

Changes to this policy

If this policy changes, the "Last updated" date above will change, and the current version will be published at airmony.app/privacy.
