Effective date: September 8, 2026

Raylie (“the app”) is developed and operated by ooo.engineering Inc. (“we”, “us”). This policy explains what the app does with your information, what stays on your device, and the limited data that reaches our servers.

The short version

• Your boarding passes, the photos in your photo library, and your precise location never leave your device. Passenger names, booking references (PNR), seat numbers, barcodes, and the images themselves are read and stored only on your iPhone or iPad, and in your own iCloud account if you have iCloud enabled.
• Your flight history is never uploaded. Flight identifiers (the flight number, the departure and arrival airport codes, and the departure date) reach our servers only once when you add a flight, to fetch its schedule and route, and while the live tracker follows an upcoming flight you are boarding. Nothing that identifies you as a person is attached.
• Your location is sent only while you are using the app, and only when the Nearby section of Discover looks up the flights overhead. Everything else the app does with your location happens on your device.
• We collect anonymous usage analytics and, with your permission through Apple, crash reports to improve the app. Neither is used for advertising, sold, or shared with data brokers.
• We do not track you across other apps or websites, and the app contains no advertising SDKs.

What is processed only on your device

Boarding passes and itineraries

You can add flights from Apple Wallet passes, from a photo or scan of a paper boarding pass or itinerary, or by typing them in. Passes are parsed on your device using Apple’s on-device text recognition and, on supported devices, Apple’s on-device language models (Apple Intelligence). The full contents of a pass, including your name, booking reference, seat, frequent-flyer numbers, and barcode, are stored only on your device and are never transmitted to us. Only the flight identifiers described below are used to look up the flight.

Photo library

If you grant photo access, the app reads the capture dates and locations of your photos on your device to show the pictures you took during each flight, and lets you pick a photo of a boarding pass to scan. Photos are read, displayed, and processed on your device. They are never uploaded to our servers.

Camera

The camera is used only to photograph a boarding pass or itinerary for on-device recognition. Frames are processed on your device and are not sent anywhere.

Location

If you grant location access, the app uses your approximate location (roughly kilometer-level accuracy) on your device to center the globe on where you are, to refine when sunrises and landmarks come into view during a flight, and to keep your Live Activity current. Your location is not stored on our servers or used to build a history of where you have been.

One feature is an exception and is described below: while you are using the app, the Nearby section of Discover (“Find flights near you”) sends your approximate coordinates to our server for a single lookup of the flight routes overhead.

Your journeys and preferences

The flights you save, their details, and your Discover preferences are stored in the app’s database on your device. If iCloud is turned on for the app, that database is also synced through iCloud (CloudKit private database) under your own Apple Account so it appears on your other devices. Data in your private iCloud database is controlled by you and Apple; we have no access to it.
