Privacy policy
Roam Live is built to collect nothing. No accounts, no analytics, no telemetry, no crash reporting, no ads, no Google Play Services inside the app. This page spells out exactly what that means.
What we collect
Nothing. The app has no sign-in, sends us no usage data, and contains no tracking of any kind. We cannot see who uses Roam, how, or how often.
Network connections the app makes
Every connection the app opens is one you configured or asked for:
- Your stream goes directly from your phone to the destination you typed in (a streaming platform, your own OBS, or a relay you chose). It never passes through us.
- Chat connects to Twitch, Kick, or YouTube for the channels you typed in, read-only, with no login.
- OBS remote control connects to the OBS instance you paired, on your own network or server.
- Update check: the app fetches a small static version file from roamlive.app (daily, and when you tap Check now). The request contains no identifiers and nothing about you or your device beyond what any web request carries. It can be turned off in Settings.
Permissions, and what they are actually for
- Camera and microphone: the stream itself. Captured on your phone, encoded on your phone, sent only to your configured destination.
- Location (optional): used only if you add location overlay tokens (like coordinates or speed) to your own stream. Read on-device, drawn into your own broadcast, never sent to us.
- Photos / files: picking overlay images, saving recordings and settings backups. All local.
Data on your phone
- Settings stay on the device. Your stream URL (which contains your stream key) is stored encrypted.
- Diagnostic logs exist only on your phone and only leave it if you export them yourself. Exported logs strip stream URLs down to the server address so your stream key is never in them.
- Settings backups are local files you create and control. They exclude your stream URL and passwords.
