No app account is required. This version includes no advertising, behavioral analytics or tracking SDKs and does not upload personal data to developer-operated servers. ### Local network When you start discovery or a connection, the app uses local network access to find TVs, read device names and capabilities, and send commands to your selected device. Device names, addresses and preferences remain on your device. Pairing tokens and certificate credentials are stored in the system Keychain. Removing a device in the app removes its associated pairing credentials. ### Microphone and native voice Audio capture occurs only when you use hold-to-speak on a compatible TV and grant microphone permission. Audio streams in real time to the connected TV. Releasing, cancelling, disconnecting or moving the app to the background stops capture. The app does not run phone speech-to-text, save recordings, or upload audio to developer-operated servers. TV manufacturers may process audio through their own online voice services under the TV service’s terms, account settings and privacy policy. ### Text and app commands Text you choose to enter and app launch commands are sent to the connected compatible TV. Avoid entering sensitive content on networks or devices you do not trust. ### Your controls You can revoke local network or microphone permission in iOS Settings. Demo mode sends no TV commands and does not record or transmit microphone audio. Uninstalling removes app data; pairing credentials can also be explicitly cleared by removing saved devices before uninstalling. ### Contact Support:
