Your catalog against every video you have. IDReel listens to the sound of your footage, your Photos library and your Dropbox on your Mac, and finds every clip where one of your tracks plays.
IDReel only reads. It listens to the sound of each video on your Mac and never uploads a video, a track or a fingerprint. It never changes, moves or deletes your files, and never writes next to them. Exports go where you choose.
From Dropbox it keeps only the sound. For most videos it reads just the sound, about 2 MB per GB of footage. A clip plays from Dropbox only when you press Play.
Anonymous numbers. IDReel sends counts and timings, never titles, file names, folders or video, so we can see where it is slow or confusing. Switch them off in Settings, then Privacy. Once a day it asks getidreel.com for the newest version; that request carries nothing about you. The privacy policy has the details.
This is a beta. A new build comes most weeks, and IDReel says so on its Home screen with a Download button. Nothing updates by itself. To update, quit IDReel, then drag the new one over the old one in Applications: your library stays.
Tell us what happens. In IDReel, Help, then Send Feedback opens an email with your install code and the app's journal (events and numbers, no file names). Read it, edit it, send it. Or write to support@getidreel.com.
Good to know. IDReel keeps its index and its copies of your tracks in ~/Library/Application Support/IDReel for Mac. A folder holding a file named .idreel-skip is never read.
