I’ve been using the app for a while paird with jellyfin but it’s time for my yearly purge of privacy violating apps, services, and websites.

I can’t find much online about infuse.

The App Store page says it only collects diagnostics.

Their website has a privacy policy in the footer which addresses the site and the app. It looks generic, however. I’m not a lawyer and cannot judge whether it’s a good policy or not.

There’s Swiftfin if Infuse doesn’t make the list.

"Diagnostics" can be interpreted in a very, very wide range of meanings.

100%, that’s why I went looking for the privacy policy!

Cheers.

Yeah I wouldn’t have bothered with infuse if any of the jellyfin apps had all the features but I’m functionally deaf and swiftin doesn’t do opensubtitles integration which means manually downloading.

A fellow Deaf person! Hi!

The opensubtitles integration is a fantastic feature and I use it from time to time. The only reason I still use Infuse myself is because it was the only player available when I left emby for Jellyfin (a few years now, paid for lifetime) and it hasn’t once given me any trouble and stays out of my way. A feature rarely seen these days lol

Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful! Fingers crossed someone else comes along ^^
