Everything you need from a local player

Built for people who keep their media on-device. Focused on what actually matters.

🎵

Audio & Video

Plays all common formats — MP3, FLAC, AAC, MP4, MKV, WebM and more. Powered by Android's Media3/ExoPlayer.

🎬

Subtitle support

Load .srt, .vtt, .ass or .sub files directly into the video player, exactly like VLC. Tap the subtitle icon while watching.

🔊

Background playback

Audio keeps playing when you lock the screen or switch apps. Notification controls and lock-screen integration included.

🎛️

Equalizer

Per-device EQ with presets, band sliders, bass boost and virtualizer — wherever your phone supports them.

👆

VLC-style gestures

Swipe left edge for brightness, right edge for volume. Horizontal swipe to seek. Double-tap to skip 10 seconds.

📚

Library & playlists

Browse by song, video, album, artist or folder. Create and manage playlists. Mark favourites. Track history.

⏯️

Resume where you left off

The app remembers your position. A resume button appears on the home screen — but never starts playing on its own.

📵

Fully offline

No internet permission, ever. No remote images, no metadata lookups, no telemetry. Works in airplane mode.


Offline only.
No data leaves your device.

This is the short version — the full policy is below. Nothing ambiguous about it.

No internet access

The app does not declare the INTERNET permission. It cannot make network requests at all.

No analytics

No Firebase, no Crashlytics, no third-party SDKs that phone home. There is no analytics code in the app.

No advertising

No ads, no advertising IDs, no ad SDKs. The advertising ID permission is not requested or used.

No account needed

There is no login, no sign-up, no cloud sync. Everything lives locally on your device.

No metadata lookups

Track info, album art and thumbnails are read from the local file only. Nothing is fetched from the internet.

Storage access

The app requests storage access to read your local media files. It never reads, moves or deletes your actual files.

Effective date: September 2026  ·  App: Vobot Player  ·  Developer: VoBot Technologies

1. Summary

Vobot Player does not collect, store, transmit or share any personal data. The app has no internet access and cannot communicate with any server, including ours.

2. Data we collect

We collect nothing. Vobot Player stores the following data locally on your device only:

  • File paths of your local audio and video files (used to build your library)
  • Playback positions and history (so you can resume where you left off)
  • Playlists and favourites you create
  • Equalizer settings and app preferences

This data is written to a local SQLite database on your device. It is never transmitted anywhere.

3. Permissions

Vobot Player may request the following permissions depending on your Android version:

  • All Files Access / Storage — to scan and play your local media files. Required to build the library.
  • Foreground Service — to keep audio playing while the screen is off.
  • Modify Audio Settings — to respond to headphone/Bluetooth changes and set volume.

The INTERNET permission is not declared in the app manifest. The app cannot make any network request.

The advertising ID (AD_ID) permission is not requested or used.

4. Third-party services

Vobot Player includes no third-party SDKs that transmit data. There is no Firebase, no Google Analytics, no Crashlytics, no ad network, and no remote configuration service.

The only external code used is Android's own Media3/ExoPlayer library, which handles local file playback on-device.

5. Children

Vobot Player does not collect any data from anyone, including children under 13. There is no account system, no user identifier and no data transmission.

6. Changes to this policy

If we ever update this policy, the new version will appear at thevobot.com/mediaplayer and will note the effective date at the top.
