1. Introduction
Phone Doctor: Device Health ("Phone Doctor", "we", "our", or "the app") is an Android device diagnostic and hardware inspection utility.
The app helps users inspect available device hardware, sensors, battery information, display, touchscreen, audio, camera, storage, memory, processor information, connectivity, and Android system details.
This Privacy Policy explains what information the app may access, how that information is used, and how diagnostic information is stored.
2. Device Information
Phone Doctor may access information exposed by the Android operating system and device hardware in order to provide diagnostic and informational features.
This may include:
- Manufacturer
- Device model
- Build number
- Android version
- API level
- Security patch level
- CPU architecture
- Processor and core information
- Supported ABIs
- Hardware board information
- Display resolution
- Screen density
- Storage information
- RAM and memory information
- Network and connectivity status
The availability and accuracy of specific information may vary depending on the device manufacturer, Android version, hardware configuration, and system restrictions.
3. Battery Information
When available through Android system APIs, Phone Doctor may access battery and charging information for diagnostic purposes.
This may include:
- Battery percentage
- Charging state
- Charger type when reported
- Battery temperature
- Operating voltage
- Battery technology
- Battery condition when reported
- Battery capacity when available
Battery level and temperature history may also be stored locally when the corresponding diagnostic history feature is used.
4. Display and Touchscreen Diagnostics
Phone Doctor provides interactive display and touchscreen tests. These tests process user interactions and display test patterns to help identify potentially unresponsive areas or display irregularities.
The app may process touchscreen interactions, touch coordinates, multi-touch events, and test results while a diagnostic test is running.
These tests are intended for device inspection and do not constitute professional hardware certification.
5. Microphone and Audio Testing
Phone Doctor provides microphone and audio diagnostic features. Microphone access is used only when the user starts a microphone test.
During the microphone test, the app may process temporary microphone input to display audio levels, amplitude information, and perform the supported playback check.
The microphone is not required for unrelated diagnostic features.
6. Camera Diagnostics
Phone Doctor uses camera functionality for front and rear camera hardware testing.
Camera access may be used to provide a live preview, switch between available cameras, and test image capture functionality.
Camera permission is requested when the user uses the camera diagnostic feature.
7. Sensors and Live Sensor Data
Phone Doctor may access information from sensors exposed by the Android operating system in order to identify and test available hardware.
Depending on the device, this may include:
- Accelerometer
- Gyroscope
- Light sensor
- Proximity sensor
- Other supported device sensors
The app may display sensor names, vendors, resolution, maximum range, power information when reported, and live sensor events.
Sensor information is used for device diagnostic and inspection functionality.
8. Storage and Memory Information
Phone Doctor may access Android system information related to internal storage and device memory.
This may include:
- Total storage
- Used storage
- Available storage
- Total RAM
- Available memory
- Memory pressure indicators
This information is used to display device status and diagnostic information.
9. Network and Connectivity Information
Phone Doctor may inspect connectivity information exposed by Android to display the current network and Bluetooth status.
This may include:
- Wi-Fi connection status
- Cellular network status
- Ethernet status where supported
- Network validation status
- Bluetooth adapter availability
- Bluetooth enablement status
This information is used for connectivity diagnostics and is not intended to identify or track users.
10. Diagnostic Reports and History
Phone Doctor may allow users to run diagnostic scans and save diagnostic session information locally on their device.
Local diagnostic information may include:
- Diagnostic test results
- Pass and attention indicators
- Battery diagnostic information
- Sensor test information
- Hardware inspection results
- Other information generated during a diagnostic session
Diagnostic reports and history are intended to remain on the user's device unless the user explicitly chooses to export or share a report.
11. Export and Sharing
Phone Doctor may provide an option to export or share diagnostic summaries using the standard Android share sheet.
When you choose to share a report, the information contained in that report is provided to the application or service you select through Android's sharing interface.
We do not control how a third-party application handles information after you choose to share it.
12. Permissions
Phone Doctor requests permissions when they are required for a corresponding diagnostic feature.
Camera
Used for front and rear camera diagnostic tests and camera previews.
Microphone
Used for microphone and audio input diagnostic tests.
Notifications
Used only when notification functionality is enabled by the app and supported by the installed version.
Permission availability and requirements may vary depending on the Android version and device.
13. Local Processing and Offline Operation
Phone Doctor is designed to operate primarily on the device. Core diagnostic tests and device information features are intended to work using Android system APIs and locally available hardware information.
Diagnostic history and test session information may be stored locally on the device.
The app does not require an account for its core diagnostic features.
14. Data Sharing
Phone Doctor does not require users to create an account for its core diagnostic functionality.
Diagnostic information remains on the device unless the user chooses to export or share it through Android's standard sharing functionality.
When information is shared with another application, that application's own privacy policy and data practices may apply.
15. Data Security
We take reasonable measures to protect information handled by the app. Local diagnostic information is stored using the app's supported local storage mechanisms.
However, no electronic storage system can be guaranteed to be completely secure.
16. Data Retention and Deletion
Diagnostic history and locally stored reports may remain on the device until they are deleted through available app controls or the application's data is cleared through Android device settings.
Information included in a report that has been voluntarily shared with another application is subject to the receiving application's retention and deletion policies.
17. Children's Privacy
Phone Doctor is a general-purpose device diagnostic utility and is not specifically directed toward children.
We do not knowingly collect personal information from children in violation of applicable laws.
18. Changes to This Privacy Policy
We may update this Privacy Policy when the app's features, permissions, technical implementation, or applicable legal requirements change.
Any updated version will be made available through the appropriate application or website location.
