Tunzika Privacy Policy

Updated October 24, 2026

Tunzika does not require a Tunzika account and does not display ads. We use Google Firebase for general app analytics and crash diagnostics. Your saved listening history, photos and microphone recordings are not sent to Firebase. Optional music features contact Apple services as described below.

Information stored on your device

Your selected country, favorite stations, listening history, discoveries, music activity, completed quiz results, cached Apple Music profile metadata, appearance choices, and widget settings are stored locally on your device and in the app group shared with Tunzika widgets. Tunzika does not send this information to us.

Radio directory and playback

To refresh the station catalog, Tunzika contacts the community Radio Browser service. When you play a station or load its artwork, your device connects directly to the station or image provider. Those providers may receive standard network information such as your IP address, user agent, and request time under their own privacy policies.

Music recognition, camera and photos

Song recognition uses the microphone when you start recognition and sends recognition information to Apple through ShazamKit. Saving a discovery to your Shazam library is an explicit action. Album scanning uses the camera or a photo you select. Text recognition and image correction run on your device; search clues are sent to Apple Music when you search. Tunzika does not save the source photo or microphone audio to its own storage.

Apple Music and speech recognition

With your permission, MusicKit accesses music catalog results, playback, library information and available listening history. These requests are processed by Apple. Music playback and the playlist quiz require compatible Apple Music access. If you enable voice answers in Blind Test, Apple Speech processes microphone input; recognition may use Apple servers. You can type answers instead. Tunzika does not require access to your entire photo library.

App analytics and crash diagnostics

On iPhone, iPad and Mac, Google Analytics for Firebase records general app activity, such as first launches, sessions and engagement, together with app-instance identifiers and device and app information. We use these reports to understand app usage. Analytics also derives approximate location from masked IP addresses and measures purchase events, associated with the app-instance identifier. Advertising identifier (IDFA) and vendor identifier (IDFV) collection and advertising personalization signals are disabled.

Firebase Crashlytics collects crash stack traces, relevant application state, device and operating-system information, and session diagnostics to help us investigate reliability problems. Crashlytics is included on iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Vision Pro. The independent Watch app and widget extensions do not initialize Firebase. Tunzika does not attach names, email addresses, station selections or music-history records to Firebase events or crash reports.

Google processes this information through Firebase. See Firebase privacy information and Google's privacy policy for details.

Purchases and subscriptions

Apple processes payments for Tunzika Pro. RevenueCat validates purchases and manages access to Pro using purchase history, subscription status, technical app information and an anonymous app user identifier. We also use its reports to understand purchases and subscriptions. Tunzika does not send your name or email address to RevenueCat, and does not receive your payment-card details. See RevenueCat's privacy policy.

Your choices

You can manage microphone, camera, speech and music permissions in system Settings. In Profile, you can clear local activity or the profile cache; these actions do not delete your Apple Music or Shazam libraries. Removing the app removes its local app data subject to system backup and retention behavior.

Apple services

Features such as widgets, CarPlay, App Intents, Siri Shortcuts, and media controls are provided by Apple and are subject to Apple’s privacy policy.
