Privacy policy

Navette for Android and Navette for Mac — updated November 8, 2026

In short: Navette collects no data. What you share between your phone and your Mac goes directly from one to the other, end-to-end encrypted. There is no account, no server, no advertising and no analytics in the apps.

What travels between your devices

Navette transmits, only between the devices you have paired: clipboard contents, the files you send, the phone’s notifications (if you turn this on), the phone’s battery and signal level, and the commands you trigger (hotspot, ring, open a link).

These exchanges go over your local Wi-Fi network or over Bluetooth. They are encrypted with a key created during pairing and known only to your devices: nobody else, not even Navette’s publisher, can read them.

What is stored

Each device keeps its pairing key, its settings and a short history of recently exchanged items locally. Nothing is sent anywhere else. Uninstalling Navette erases this data.

Permissions

On Android, each permission serves a single feature, and all of them are optional:

• Notifications: show transfers, and read the phone’s notifications to display them on the Mac (if you turn this on).
• All files access: browse the phone from Navette’s explorer on the Mac.
• Phone: know the network type (5G, 4G…) shown on the Mac. Navette reads neither your calls nor your number.
• Nearby devices (Bluetooth): reach the Mac when you don’t share a Wi-Fi network.
• Display over other apps and system logs: automatically send each copy to the Mac, since Android offers no other way to know that text was just copied.
• Battery: stay connected to the Mac while the screen is off.

On the Mac, Navette asks for Bluetooth and local network access (to reach the phone) and for location, which macOS requires to read Wi-Fi network names and join the phone’s hotspot. Your location is never used or stored.

Mac App Store purchases

The free trial and the purchase of Navette for Mac are handled by Apple. Navette receives no payment information; it only checks with the App Store, on your Mac, that the trial is running or that the purchase was made.
