Frequently asked questions.

Straight answers — including the honest ones other platforms bury in footnotes.

▸ PROTECTION

Can screen recording really be stopped?
Inside the Wolvy Player app (App-Only mode) — yes. Android's FLAG_SECURE makes any capture come out black. In browsers, DRM stops downloads and rips entirely; a determined pirate is left pointing a phone camera at a screen, and forensic watermarking traces even that back to their account.
What is DRM, in one paragraph?
Your video is encrypted before it leaves the server. To play it, a viewer's device requests a decryption license tied to their session. No license, no playback — even if someone downloads every file. Widevine (Google), PlayReady (Microsoft) and FairPlay (Apple) are the three industry systems, and Wolvy uses all of them.
What happens if a video leaks anyway?
First: direct rips don't play, so realistic leaks are camera recordings. Every stream carries a per-viewer watermark, so we identify the source account — you ban it, keep the evidence, and the leak dies at one copy instead of one thousand.

▸ TECH

Which devices and browsers are supported?
Everything modern: Chrome, Edge and Firefox (Widevine), Safari on macOS/iOS (FairPlay), Windows apps (PlayReady), Android and smart TVs — plus the Wolvy Player app for App-Only content.
Why do some devices max out at 480p?
Honest answer: devices without hardware-backed DRM (older or rooted Android, some browsers) can't protect HD content to studio standards. Instead of blocking those viewers, Wolvy caps them at 480p. Your students keep watching; your HD master stays protected. This is the same trade-off Netflix makes.
Will it slow my site down?
No — the player embeds asynchronously, streams come from CDN edges near the viewer, and adaptive bitrate matches each connection. Playback typically starts in under two seconds.
Do you support Arabic?
Yes. Support is available in Arabic and English, and AI transcription and captions work in both. An Arabic version of this website is on the way.

▸ BILLING

How do I pay?
Fawry, Visa or Mastercard, billed in EGP (USD available for international teams). No contract lock-in — cancel anytime from the dashboard.
What's the refund policy?
First-time subscriptions get a 14-day money-back window if you're not satisfied. Details in the refund policy.

▸ MIGRATION

I'm on YouTube unlisted / Vimeo / Drive. How painful is moving?
Less painful than staying. Bulk-upload your library (we help with big ones), swap each old embed for a Wolvy snippet, and you're done — viewers notice nothing except that link sharing stopped working. Most course sites migrate in an afternoon.
Can Wolvy work inside my LMS or membership plugin?
Yes — anywhere an embed or iframe works: WordPress, Teachable-style platforms, custom LMS builds, and mobile apps via webview or API. On WordPress, the official Wolvy Video plugin adds a block, a shortcode and an Elementor widget.
