Privacy and guardrails
Use your own phones and accounts, what Tether Studio will never do, and what it keeps.
Your phones, your accounts
Use Tether Studio only with phones and app accounts that are yours or that you're allowed to operate. Some apps' terms restrict automated use: read them before you put a flow on a schedule. You are responsible for what your flows do. The Acceptable Use Policy has the details.
What Tether Studio won't do
- It doesn't spoof the device's identity, fake location or warm up accounts.
- It never bypasses Face ID, passcodes, captchas or login walls. When a run meets one it stops with Needs you and waits for a person.
- The agent never uninstalls apps, clears app data or resets a phone.
- Ask AI is told never to buy anything, send messages, post or delete, and to stop instead.
- Templates that post or send messages end with an Approval step, so a person checks before anything goes out.
What is kept
- Every step keeps a screenshot, the text on screen, the app and the time, so you can see what ran.
- On Team, each run can also keep a recording. Only owners and admins can watch recordings.
- Screenshots and recordings are deleted when your plan's history window passes. Sheets and step text stay until you delete them or the studio.
- You can export your sheets at any time, and delete your account from Account.
Help improve Tether Studio
Owners and admins choose in Settings whether to share anonymised usage metrics and screen structure (layout with all text removed). Screen content (screenshots, screen text, recordings) is never used to improve Tether Studio or to train AI.
