Privacy Policy
MobilePulse processes device health and usage signals on your device. Version 1 does not require an account, does not provide remote control, does not scan for malware, and does not upload your device metrics to a cloud server.
1. What MobilePulse reads
MobilePulse reads four categories of platform signals so it can show you their state:
- Charging signal — battery percent, charging state, plugged type, voltage, current (where the platform exposes it).
- Battery drain — battery percent over the current foreground session.
- Network signal — Wi-Fi signal level, link speed, connectivity, and drop count (where the platform exposes it).
- Storage — free / used / total storage.
All readings are processed inside the MobilePulse app on your device. They are not sent to MobilePulse, to Shade, to CNC Balance, or to any third party.
2. What MobilePulse does not collect
- No name, email, phone number, or any account identifier.
- No advertising ID, no analytics ID, no third-party tracker.
- No contacts, calendar, messages, photos, files, or browsing history.
- No location data — see Section 4 for why MobilePulse asks for the location permission anyway.
- No payment or financial information.
3. No cloud, no sharing, no third parties
MobilePulse v1 has no backend server. Device signals never leave your phone or tablet. Nothing is sold, shared, or transmitted.
If a future version adds an optional cloud or analytics surface, this policy, the in-app privacy text, and the store data-safety declarations will all be updated before that version ships.
4. Why MobilePulse asks for the Location permission (Android)
Reading Wi-Fi signal strength and link speed on Android requires the ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION permission. This is an Android platform rule that applies to any app that reads Wi-Fi details, even when the app does not want a location fix.
MobilePulse uses the permission only to read Wi-Fi signal information for the Network Signal Quality module. MobilePulse does not request a GPS fix, does not read your latitude / longitude, does not store location, and does not transmit anything.
If you decline the permission, MobilePulse continues to work — the Network Signal Quality module shows a clear "permission-limited" state, and the other three modules are unaffected.
5. Local settings
MobilePulse may store small settings (such as your selected theme) on the device itself using the operating system's standard local-storage facilities. These settings stay on your device and are removed when you uninstall the app.
6. Children
MobilePulse is a general-purpose utility and does not target children. It does not collect any personal information from anyone.
7. Your rights
Because MobilePulse v1 does not collect or store any personal data outside your device, there is nothing held by MobilePulse to access, correct, export, or delete. See the data deletion page for the details Google Play requires us to publish.
8. Changes to this policy
If this policy changes, the effective date at the top of the page will be updated and the change will be summarized in the in-app About screen of the next release.
