LogTTYprivacy / updated 20 August 2026
This policy applies to LogTTY for macOS, iPhone, and iPad. LogTTY has no account system, advertising, tracking, analytics SDK, developer backend, or automatic crash-reporting service.
LogTTY reads the current app's Apple unified-log error and fault entries, redacts common secrets and identifiers, and stores bounded incident aggregates rather than raw messages. The Live Digest keeps at most 2,000 incidents for seven days. Broad Diagnostic Access is an explicit, bounded system-log snapshot and may remain unavailable when macOS does not grant access.
When you explicitly select a .logarchive, LogTTY copies it into its Application Support folder and records import metadata, raw portable log records, derived events, and incidents. Imports have no automatic expiry. The original archive remains under your control. To remove retained Mac imports, quit LogTTY and remove its Application Support data; uninstalling the app alone may not remove that folder.
On iOS, LogTTY records app-owned log category, level, and time while withholding raw messages. It can show coarse network-path status, low-power and thermal state, and total or available storage. It does not read SSIDs, IP addresses, location, contacts, photos, advertising identifiers, or a persistent device identifier.
You may select bounded .ips, .json, .log, or .txt files. LogTTY reads them through Apple's file access and does not copy the originals. It retains one sanitized aggregate containing the application name, selected filename, timestamps, counts, severity, and incidents; a later import replaces it. Reset settings and collected data clears that aggregate and local settings. Uninstalling removes the app container but cannot erase original files or Apple-owned logs.
LogTTY has no developer API, analytics endpoint, socket relay, or active CloudKit synchronization. Apple's network-path monitor observes connection state without contacting a probe destination. A Share action sends a Markdown digest only to the destination you choose; that destination's policy then applies.
