Hush Amp privacy policy

Last updated November 10, 2026

Sound

Hush Amp listens to the input you choose, usually an audio interface or guitar adapter, and plays it through the amp in real time. The sound is processed as it arrives and is never recorded or saved.

The Ear listens to a song only while you have it listening. On a Mac it can listen to what the Mac plays; on iPhone and iPad it listens through the microphone or the input. It works out the key, the tempo and the chords on your device, then keeps that result, not the sound, in a list of past listens on your device. You can delete any of them in the app.

Camera

The Coach can watch your fretting hand to count the fingers on the neck, but only if you turn its camera on. The picture is looked at on your device while the camera is on, and is never saved or sent anywhere.

What is stored, and where

Your settings, your own presets, the list of past listens and, if you load one, a copy of your impulse response file are kept in the app's own storage on your device. Removing the app removes them.

Permissions the app asks for

• Microphone: because your Mac, iPhone or iPad treats an audio interface input as a microphone. Without it the amp cannot hear your guitar.
• Camera: only if you turn on the Coach's camera.
• Screen and System Audio Recording (Mac only): only if you have the Ear listen to what the Mac plays. No picture of your screen is taken or used.

What is collected

Nothing. There is no account, no analytics, no crash reporting, no advertising and no tracking. The App Store privacy label is Data Not Collected. Nobody, including the developer, can hear what you play.
