InForm — Privacy Policy
Last updated: 21 September 2026
InForm is a motion-analysis app for dance and sports. It films, slows down, annotates, measures and compares video.
InForm has no accounts, no sign-in, no analytics, no advertising, and no crash reporting. The developer receives no data from your use of the app. Your videos, photos, drawings and notes are stored on your device and are not uploaded anywhere by InForm.
What InForm stores on your device
All of the following is kept in the app's own storage on your phone, and none of it is transmitted by InForm:
- Videos you record in the app, and copies of videos or photos you open in it.
- Frame captures and side-by-side comparison images you save.
- Drawings, measurements and visibility timings, stored in a file beside each video.
- Typed notes, and voice notes recorded through the microphone.
- Projects, filming sessions and pose tags — plain dated folders on the device.
- Settings, such as volume, layout, the open project, and any auto-delete age you set.
When you save a frame capture, InForm may also place a copy in your device's photo gallery so it appears alongside your other pictures. That copy is yours and stays on the device.
When information leaves your device
InForm makes network requests only in the situations below. Each one is started by something you do.
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| You use dictation to speak a note | InForm hands the microphone to your device's built-in speech recognition service — on most Android phones this is provided by Google, and on an iPhone by Apple. Your spoken audio is sent to that service to be turned into text, and is handled under that provider's privacy policy, not InForm's. The resulting text is written into your note on the device. InForm does not receive or keep a copy of the audio. Dictation runs only while you hold the microphone button; if you never use it, no audio is ever sent. |
| You open a YouTube video | InForm uses YouTube API Services: when you open a YouTube link, the app requests the video's thumbnail and basic details from YouTube and plays the video using YouTube's own embedded player inside the app. YouTube and Google may collect information about that playback, including through cookies, in the same way they would if you watched the video on YouTube's website. This is governed by the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy. You can see and manage the data Google holds at Google My Account. |
| You use body tracking
(optional, and only if you agree to the download) |
Body tracking needs a pose-detection model that is too large to ship
inside the app. The first time you use the feature InForm asks; only if
you agree does it fetch that file — about 9 MB — from Google's model
store at storage.googleapis.com. Nothing of yours is
sent: no video, no frames, no account, nothing about you — only
the request for the file, which necessarily includes your IP address, as
any web request does. The model then runs on your device, and tracking
needs no signal afterwards. Declining leaves the rest of the app exactly
as it was. |
| You tap a support or donation link | InForm opens your browser at that page — for example Stripe or Venmo. InForm sends nothing with you; anything you do there is between you and that company, under their own privacy policies. InForm has no payment processing of its own, stores no card or bank details, and is never told whether a payment happened. |
| You share a clip or a project | InForm hands the file to your device's share sheet and you choose where it goes. Nothing is uploaded until you pick a destination. |
| The app checks for a new version
(versions installed outside an app store only) |
InForm requests a small file listing the newest available version. No information about you or your videos is sent — only the request itself, which necessarily includes your IP address, as any web request does. Copies installed from Google Play or the App Store do not make this request; the store handles updates. |
Permissions and why InForm asks
| Permission | Used for |
|---|---|
| Camera | Filming a session in the app. Video is written to your device. InForm never streams or uploads camera footage. |
| Microphone | Sound on videos you film, voice notes, and dictation. See the dictation row above — it is the only case where audio leaves the device. |
| Internet | YouTube playback, opening support links, and the update check described above. |
| Record the screen | "Record feedback", which captures the screen and your voice into a video on your device. Your phone asks its own separate question every time a recording starts, and nothing is captured until you accept it. The result is a file on your device like any other; InForm does not upload it. |
| Vibration | Small haptic taps when stepping a frame or setting a loop marker. |
| Keep screen on | Stops the screen sleeping while a video is playing or while the camera is recording. |
| Install apps (direct-download copies only) | Installing InForm's own update when you tap the Update button on the opening screen. Copies installed from Google Play or the App Store do not carry this permission — the store updates them. |
You can open videos and photos from your device's library whenever you like. InForm does this through the system picker, which hands the app only the single file you chose — so InForm never needs, and never asks for, access to your photo library as a whole.
Children
InForm is not directed to children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from them. It has no accounts and collects no personal information from any user.
Your control over your data
- Delete individual items — the app's library screen deletes a video together with its drawings and notes.
- Free up space in bulk — the "Free Space" tool clears videos by age or by kind, and an optional auto-delete rule can do it on a schedule. It is off unless you turn it on.
- Delete everything — uninstalling InForm removes all of its stored videos, projects, drawings and notes from the device. Copies you saved to your photo gallery or shared elsewhere are not affected. Because uninstalling is permanent, back up anything you want to keep first, using the project backup in the app.
Since InForm holds no data about you on any server, there is nothing for the developer to delete, export or correct on request.
Changes to this policy
If InForm's handling of information changes, this page will be updated and the date at the top changed with it.
