How SongSend handles the data it needs to help you sign in, add close friends, send songs, receive notifications, personalize widgets, and keep your account working.
What we store
SongSend uses Firebase, Sign in with Apple, MusicKit, public music-link metadata, push notification services, and local widget storage to run the app. Public profile data is limited to what friends need to identify you: display name, username, avatar, pairing code, and last-active time. There is no public feed, follower graph, username search, or public discovery surface.
We also store private account records, friend and invite records, sent and received song records, push notification tokens, widget preferences, and cached artwork or avatar files needed to make inboxes, notifications, and widgets work reliably.
The public App Store release is configured for the United States storefront only as a one-time $4.99 USD purchase.
Email and app communication
When you continue with Apple, you agree to share your email address with SongSend for account and app communication. Apple may provide your real email or an Apple private relay address, depending on your Apple settings. We store this email in a private account record, separate from your public SongSend profile.
We may use that email for important account notices, launch updates, product changes, and SongSend announcements. You can opt out of product update emails in SongSend Settings. We may still send essential account or service notices when needed.
Photos and profile avatars
SongSend asks for photo access only when you choose or change a profile avatar. Song sending does not require Photos access, and SongSend does not browse your photo library. The selected image may be processed, uploaded, cached, and shown to friends as your profile avatar.
Songs you send
Song data you send includes track metadata, artwork URL, sender and recipient identifiers, timestamp, and any optional message you add. SongSend supports Apple Music through MusicKit and accepts shared music links from compatible sources such as Spotify, YouTube, SoundCloud, and SUNO. Public launch does not require a Spotify account connection.
When you share a song or music link, SongSend may resolve public metadata from the source service, such as title, artist, artwork, preview information, or the canonical music URL. The recipient can see the song, your profile details, and your optional message in their inbox, notification, and widget surfaces.
Reports and blocks
If you report a song or user, SongSend stores the report reason, optional details you provide, your user identifier, the reported user's identifier, and related song metadata when applicable so support can review the issue. If you block a user, SongSend stores the block record needed to prevent future requests or song sends between you and that user.
Push notifications
Push notification tokens are stored separately from public profiles and are used to deliver SongSend notifications, badge updates, and widget refreshes. SongSend may store one token per signed-in device so songs can reach the right iPhone or iPad. You can turn notifications off in the app or in iOS Settings at any time.
Widgets and device caches
SongSend widgets read from local App Group storage on your device. That storage can include your selected widget friend, selected widget style, the latest and recent received songs, cached artwork, and cached sender avatars. Widgets do not query Firestore or fetch remote artwork directly at render time.
Analytics and website measurement
SongSend uses Firebase Analytics in the app to understand feature usage and reliability, such as song-send and widget-update events. The public website uses Google Analytics to measure page visits. We do not use analytics to sell ads, build a public social graph, or sell personal data.
Account deletion
You can delete your account in SongSend Settings. Account deletion removes your Firebase Auth account, public profile, private email record, push token registry, and received-song feed. Some records that also belong to other users, such as sent-song history or pairings, may remain so those users do not lose their own history.
What we don't do
No ads. No data resale. No public feed. No public profile email field. No public Spotify account requirement. Your email is kept in a private account record and used only for SongSend account and app communication.
