Obrydd collects no data.

No account, no servers, no analytics, no ads and no third-party code. What you record and how your dog does stays on your phone.

What stays on your phone

Obrydd keeps everything in its own storage on your iPhone:

your recordings, and each sound's name, icon, trim and training level
your training history: every play, and whether your dog stayed calm or reacted
your dog's name and your settings

None of it is uploaded or synced anywhere. It's included in your phone's own backup (to iCloud or a computer) if you back up, which Apple handles under its privacy policy. Deleting the app deletes all of it.

The microphone

Obrydd uses the microphone only while you're recording a sound. To suggest a name and an icon, the recording is analyzed with Apple's built-in sound recognition, which runs on the phone. Nothing you record leaves it.

Siri and Shortcuts

If you start or stop surprise sounds with Siri or Shortcuts, Apple handles your request under its own privacy policy. Obrydd only gets the action itself, such as “start surprise sounds”.

Feedback

If you tap Send feedback, your mail app sends an email to [email protected] with what you write, plus the app version, iOS version and iPhone model, so problems can be tracked down. Nothing is sent until you press Send. These emails are used only to read and answer your feedback, and aren't shared with anyone.

This website

obrydd.app has no cookies, analytics or tracking. It's hosted by Cloudflare, which handles the technical data needed to deliver the pages, such as your IP address, under its privacy policy.

Who's responsible

Obrydd is made by Filip Salo in Sweden. Questions about privacy go to [email protected]. If this policy changes, the new version is posted here with a new date.
