Privacy Policy

Last Updated: August 23, 2026

1. Overview

Shortcut Studio ("we", "our", or "us") is committed to protecting your privacy. This Privacy Policy explains how our Android application handles information on your device. Shortcut Studio is designed as a 100% offline, privacy-first tool.

2. Package Scanning & QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES Permission

To allow users to create custom shortcuts and launch specific app activities, Shortcut Studio uses the Android QUERY_ALL_PACKAGES permission.

  • On-Device Only: Package scanning occurs strictly on your Android device locally using standard system PackageManager APIs.
  • No Cloud Transmission: Installed application names, activity class names, or app icons are never uploaded, shared, or transmitted to external servers or third parties.
  • Core Functionality: This permission is essential solely to render installed applications in the Shortcut Picker UI.

3. Local Data Storage & Backup

Shortcut configurations created within the app (such as custom labels, shape preferences, and targeted intent extras) are stored locally in your device's isolated app storage.

If you export a backup JSON file, it is saved directly to your chosen local device directory. We do not maintain any cloud databases or user profile accounts.

4. Analytics & Third-Party Services

Shortcut Studio does not integrate third-party tracking SDKs, advertising networks, or analytics services. We do not collect device identifiers (IMEI, Android ID), location data, or personal information.
