Your practice setup and progress live on your device.
Plain-language privacy
Your practice stays yours.
PlayCredits is designed to do its work on your iPhone, without an account, an advertising profile, or a recording of what you play.
Working draft · Updated August 5, 2026
Microphone input is used to detect musical activity, not to save audio.
PlayCredits does not sell information or build profiles for advertisers.
01
Information PlayCredits uses
PlayCredits uses the information you choose inside the app—such as your selected mode, instrument, practice goals, earned balance, and weekly progress—to provide its core experience. This information is stored locally on the device.
02
Microphone access
Microphone access is used during an active practice session to estimate whether musical activity is present. PlayCredits does not create or store an audio recording of the session. Microphone permission can be changed at any time in iPhone Settings.
03
Screen Time access
PlayCredits uses Apple’s Family Controls, Managed Settings, and Device Activity frameworks to apply the rules you choose. Apple represents selected apps with protected tokens; PlayCredits does not receive the private content, messages, or activity inside those apps.
04
Children and Family Mode
Family Mode is designed to be configured by a parent or guardian. PlayCredits does not require a child to create an account or submit a name, email address, precise location, or other contact information.
05
Purchases
If paid features or subscriptions are offered, payment is processed by Apple through the App Store. PlayCredits does not receive or store payment-card details.
06
Changes to this policy
This page is a working draft while PlayCredits is in development. It will be finalized before release and updated when the app’s data practices materially change.
