Company/team: The About page says Winhanced is built by a small team and names Floop for design and product; it does not state a headquarters or founding date.
Device controls: The homepage describes DynamicTDP power tuning, display and frame-rate controls, Lossless Scaling access, and per-game settings profiles in the HUD.
Discovery: The homepage says users can discover games based on their interests, compare store prices, import a Steam wishlist, receive price-drop notifications, and track releases in a calendar.
Early Access: Early Access uses the same installer, unlocks features 30 days ahead, and requires active supporter verification through Patreon or Discord.
Hardware support limit: Hardware controls vary by device, and the maker notes a known gap where generic TDP control is not working on the OneXPlayer 3.
Library integrations: The FAQ lists Steam, Xbox and Game Pass, Epic Games, GOG, PlayStation, EA, Ubisoft, Battle.net, and Amazon Games as supported storefronts or services.
Message handling: The privacy policy says direct messages are kept in memory while the app runs and are not stored on Winhanced's servers or analyzed.
Privacy: The privacy policy says game libraries, settings, hardware readings, and diagnostic logs stay on the device unless a user chooses to send a report; it says Winhanced does not sell data or run ads.
