Privacy Policy for ReelStats

Effective Date: November 13, 2026 · Developer: Raj

    Summary: ReelStats operates 100% locally on your Android device. We do not collect, transmit, store on external servers, or sell any personal data, screen content, or usage statistics.
  

1. Information We Access and Why

ReelStats requires two special Android permissions to function. All processing happens strictly in real time on your device:

Android Accessibility Service API: Used exclusively when Instagram or YouTube is open on your screen to detect when you scroll past a Reel or YouTube Short and to draw the on-screen progress line or pill. ReelStats only inspects basic UI layout geometry (such as button positions, tab selection states, list scroll indices, and numeric seek-bar durations). ReelStats does not read, record, or log messages, usernames, comments, captions, passwords, or any other personal text on your screen.
Usage Access Permission (PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS): Used to read system-level foreground usage duration for Instagram so you can view daily, weekly, and 30-day time summaries alongside your scroll counts.

2. Local Data Storage & Retention

Daily Reel counts, Shorts counts, usage durations, and your display preferences are stored strictly inside your device's private internal app storage. History older than 30 days is automatically deleted by the app. You can erase all stored data at any time by clearing the app's storage in Android Settings or uninstalling ReelStats.

3. Data Sharing & Third-Party Services

ReelStats does not require an account, does not contain advertisements, and does not use third-party analytics or crash-tracking SDKs that transmit user data off your device. Your statistics leave your phone only if you explicitly tap the Share button to generate a summary image and send it through Android's system share sheet to an app of your choice.

4. Children's Privacy

ReelStats does not knowingly collect personal information from anyone, including children under the age of 13 (or under 18 in jurisdictions such as India).

5. Changes to This Privacy Policy

If we update this Privacy Policy, the revised version will be posted on this page with an updated effective date.
