What ReelNotes does with your data

Last updated: July 2026

The short version: ReelNotes doesn't collect your data, because there's almost nowhere for it to go. There's no account, no server, and no analytics. Everything you save lives in the app's local storage on your device.

What ReelNotes stores

When you share a reel or post into ReelNotes, it stores the following on your device only, using Apple's on-device SwiftData storage:

The link you shared
Any caption text that came with it, or that ReelNotes looked up (see below)
Any note you typed
The category it was sorted into, and whether you marked it a favorite
The date you saved it

None of this leaves your device unless you move it — for example, by backing up your phone through Apple's own iCloud or iTunes backup, which is standard iOS behavior for every app and outside ReelNotes' control.

The one network request ReelNotes can make

ReelNotes' category sorting runs entirely on-device. The one exception: if the app's developer has configured an optional caption lookup, ReelNotes sends the URL of the post you just shared to Meta's public oEmbed endpoint (graph.facebook.com) to retrieve its caption, so the on-device sorter has real text to work with instead of a bare link. This only happens for links you actively share in — not in the background, not for anything else on your device. That request is subject to Meta's own privacy policy for the duration of the request itself; ReelNotes does not store, log, or forward the response anywhere beyond saving the caption text into your local library as described above.

No Instagram login. No Instagram account access. No reading your Saved collection. That access does not exist for any third-party app, ReelNotes included — see the app's landing page for details.

What ReelNotes does not do

No account creation, no login, no password
No analytics, crash reporting, or advertising SDKs
No access to your photo library, microphone, or camera
No selling, renting, or sharing of your data — there is no data of yours on any server to share

Children's privacy

ReelNotes is not directed at children under 13 and does not knowingly collect information from anyone, regardless of age, beyond what's described above.

Changes to this policy
