Privacy Policy
Last updated 7 September 2026 · LensBug for iOS
LensBug does not collect any data. It has no servers, no user accounts, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party SDKs. The app contains no networking code, so there is nothing for it to transmit and nowhere for it to transmit to. Everything you shoot is processed on your device and stays on your device.
What the app accesses
LensBug asks for a small number of system permissions. Each is used only for the feature it belongs to, and none of the data leaves your phone.
- Camera. Used to show the viewfinder and capture photos and video. Frames are filtered in memory on the device. They are never uploaded.
- Microphone. Used in two places: recording audio into your videos, and FREQ mode, which analyses the incoming sound on the device to detect the beat. FREQ keeps no recording. The audio is measured and discarded frame by frame.
- Photo library. Used to save the photos and videos you capture, and to open an existing image for editing. LensBug does not read or index your library beyond what you explicitly select.
- Location (optional). If you turn location tagging on in settings, the coordinates are written into the photo's own metadata as it is saved to your library. This is off unless you enable it, and the data is never sent anywhere.
Purchases
The premium unlock is a one-time in-app purchase handled entirely by Apple through StoreKit. LensBug never sees your payment details, your Apple Account, or any personal information connected to the transaction, only whether this device holds a valid entitlement. Restoring a purchase asks Apple, not us.
Apple's own handling of the transaction is covered by Apple's privacy policy.
Children
LensBug collects nothing from anyone, of any age. There is no account to create, no profile to fill in, and no message anyone can send through the app.
Changes to this policy
If a future version of LensBug ever adds a feature that touches the network, this policy will be updated before that version ships, and the change will be described here rather than quietly folded in.
