Summary
The app does not collect, does not store on a server, and does not transmit any of your data. There is no account, no telemetry and no server of ours: everything stays on your machine.
What is stored on your machine
Your preferences live in a configuration file at %APPDATA%\com.fluentsoundswitcher.app\config.json:
- The devices you starred as favourites, and their order
- The global hotkeys you set
- Language, theme, title bar and whether to follow the Windows accent colour
- Preferences for notifications, the microphone indicator, the volume OSD and the monitor the floating windows use
- Start with Windows, and start minimised
None of it is a credential, none of it is synced across devices, and none of it leaves your machine. Uninstalling the app and deleting that folder removes everything.
Network access
The app makes exactly two kinds of request, both to GitHub:
- Update check — it fetches the
latest.jsonof the repository’s latest public release, at startup and when you ask for it from the tray. The request carries only what any download carries: your IP address and the client agent. - Update download — only after you click Update now. Installing is always explicit.
Neither request carries usage data, an install identifier, or anything about your audio devices. There is no telemetry.
Logs
The app writes a local rotating log file, which you open from Settings → General → Open log folder. It records operational events — a device switch, a hotkey registration, a Windows API error — and exists so you can attach it to a bug report.
The log stays on your machine and only leaves it if you send it yourself.
