Metrivo is a local-first Android metronome for tempo practice, tap tempo, beat setup, and background playback. It stores preferences on your device and works without an account, analytics, advertising, tracking, remote storage, or Internet permission.
event_notePrivacy Policy effective date: July 13, 2026
1. Introduction
This Privacy Policy applies to the Metrivo Android application developed by Mikael Tenshio.
Metrivo helps users keep tempo with BPM controls, tap tempo, time signatures, subdivisions, accents, count-in, sound, vibration, and background playback controls.
2. Information Stored Locally
Metrivo stores metronome preferences locally on your device. This may include:
- Tempo, time signature, subdivision, accent, count-in, click sound, volume, and vibration settings
- Theme mode, reduced-motion preference, haptic feedback, restore-tempo behavior, keep-awake setting, and background playback preference
- Dialog, sheet, and app-state preferences needed to keep the metronome experience consistent on the same device
These settings are used only to provide app behavior on your device and are not sent to the developer.
3. No Remote Data Collection
Metrivo does not request Android Internet permission and does not use a developer account system, analytics SDK, advertising SDK, tracking SDK, advertising ID permission, cloud database, or cloud-sync service.
The app is not designed to collect practice history, tempo history, device identifiers, or personal profiles for the developer.
4. Permissions and Device Features
Metrivo may request or use these Android permissions and device features:
- VIBRATE - used for optional haptic feedback or beat vibration
- WAKE_LOCK - used only while active playback needs to keep timing reliable
- FOREGROUND_SERVICE and FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PLAYBACK - used for metronome playback that continues when background playback is enabled
- POST_NOTIFICATIONS - used on supported Android versions to show playback controls while the foreground service is active
- Audio output - used to play local metronome click sounds
Metrivo does not request camera, microphone, contacts, precise location, photos, videos, broad file access, SMS, call log, calendar, or advertising ID permissions.
5. Playback, Notifications, and Device Behavior
When background playback is enabled, Metrivo may run a foreground playback service and show a notification with a stop action. The app may also keep the screen awake or use a partial wake lock during active playback depending on your settings.
Audio timing, notification behavior, vibration, battery usage, and background limits can vary by Android version, device model, manufacturer settings, battery saver, and app version.
6. Data Retention and Deletion
Metrivo settings remain on your device until you change them, reset app data, clear app storage, or uninstall the app.
The developer does not operate a cloud backup or restore service for Metrivo preferences.
7. Children's Privacy
Metrivo is a general music and practice utility and is not directed to collecting information from children. The app does not require registration or remote submission of personal information.
8. Changes and Contact
This Privacy Policy may be updated when Metrivo changes features, permissions, data handling, or legal requirements.
