Last updated: May 31, 2026
Protected review
Face ID, Touch ID, or passcode.
No account
You can use the app without sign-in, profiles, or a cloud dashboard.
No media collection
Analytics never include photos, videos, media identifiers, filenames, albums, thumbnails, or detected-item lists.
Apple handles iCloud
If an item is only in iCloud, Photos may download it to your device for scanning.
Local storage only
Results and scan state are stored on your device, not in our cloud.
Overview
Private sensitive media cleanup.
Sensitivity helps you scan, review, and clean sensitive photos and videos on your device. The app is designed so your media stays on your device during scanning and review.
Photos access
Media access is used for local inspection.
Sensitivity asks for access to your Photos library so it can inspect media you choose to scan. Photos and videos are not uploaded to our servers for analysis.
iCloud Photos
iCloud items may be downloaded by Photos.
If a photo or video is stored in iCloud and not already available locally, Sensitivity may allow Apple Photos to download that item to your device so it can be scanned. This uses Apple’s Photos and iCloud infrastructure; the media is not uploaded to Sensitivity servers. You can turn off iCloud downloads in the app’s Scan Options.
Processing
Scanning runs on device.
Scanning runs locally using on-device models and system media APIs. The app does not require an account and does not create a cloud dashboard for your library.
Results
Saved results stay local and protected.
Sensitivity stores local identifiers for detected items so you can return to scan results. Results are protected behind Face ID, Touch ID, or your device passcode when available.
Storage
What is stored, where it is stored, and how it is protected.
Sensitive result identifiers are saved in the device Keychain using this-device-only protection while the device is unlocked. Scan summaries, scan history, partial scan progress, result categories, unsupported-video entries, reminder flags, and app settings are saved locally in the app’s UserDefaults. The app does not store copies of your photos or videos, and these local records are used to restore scan state and protect access to results.
Purchases
Purchases are handled by Apple.
Video scanning is unlocked through Apple in-app purchase. Purchase and restore flows are handled by Apple. Sensitivity keeps a local unlock flag and purchase date on your device so the app can remember that video scanning is available.
Collection
Analytics, performance data, and crash reports never include media contents.
Sensitivity may collect aggregated app usage events, performance measurements, purchase events, device diagnostics, and crash reports to improve onboarding, scanning reliability, background scanning, settings, purchase screens, and app stability. These reports do not include photos, videos, media identifiers, filenames, album names, thumbnails, detection scores, personal accounts, or lists of detected items. Analytics, performance data, and crash reports are not used for tracking or advertising.
