System Info is a free, open source Android app built by Nishant and published at no cost. This page explains what information the app accesses, why it accesses it, and what happens to that information.
System Info does not collect, store, transmit, or share any personal data. Everything the app reads stays on your device. There are no ads, no analytics, and no tracking. All third party packages used are open source and handle data locally only.
Location (ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION)
Android requires location permission to read your WiFi network name (SSID).
This is an Android OS restriction introduced in Android 8.0 — it has nothing
to do with your physical location. The app does not access, store, or transmit
your location at any point. If you deny this permission the app still works,
WiFi details will simply show as unavailable.
Network State (ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE, ACCESS_WIFI_STATE)
Used to read your current connection type and WiFi details such as IP address,
gateway, and subnet mask. This information is displayed on screen only and
never leaves your device.
System Info collects absolutely no data. The app does not have a backend server. It makes no network requests of its own. It does not use any analytics, crash reporting, or advertising SDKs.
System Info is built with Flutter, an open source UI framework by Google. The app uses the following open source Flutter packages to read device information: device_info_plus, battery_plus, connectivity_plus, network_info_plus, and permission_handler.
None of these packages collect, transmit, or store any user data. They are wrappers around Android system APIs that return information directly to the app on your device only.
The app also runs on top of Google Play Services as part of the Android OS. Google's privacy policy for Play Services is available at: policies.google.com/privacy
System Info is fully open source. You can read every line of code at:

If you have questions about what the app does technically, the source
code is the definitive answer.
System Info does not knowingly collect any information from anyone, including children under the age of 13. Since no data is collected at all, this app is safe for all ages.
If this policy changes, the updated version will be posted at this URL with a new effective date. Since this app collects no data, significant changes are unlikely.
