Privacy policy
Effective: November 3, 2026
Your voice and what you type never come to me. On iPhone it uses Apple's Speech framework and asks for on-device recognition whenever the phone can do it.
Android's a bit different. I send your voice to whatever speech recognizer the phone has and ask it to stay offline. On Android 13 and up, if the phone has Google's on-device speech service, that's what runs, and it does stay offline. Older phones, or ones without that service, get Google's regular recognizer, and that one can send the audio to Google. The app has internet permission because Play billing needs it to check your purchase, and so it can send the app stats I mention further down.
The mic only opens when you tap the mic key, and what you said is kept just long enough to turn into text, so there's no audio file and nothing ever comes to me. The keyboard doesn't log your keystrokes or send them anywhere either, they just go into whatever app you're typing in.
What's stored on the phone is your settings plus any transcript that hasn't been inserted yet, and deleting the app deletes both. The app sends me anonymous stats through PostHog, same as this website does. Stuff like "opened the app", "finished setup", "saw the paywall", "bought it", "turned key preview off", and, if you close the purchase screen and tap one of the answers to "What stopped you?", which answer you tapped. None of it has your name on it and none of it has anything you said or typed in it. PostHog guesses a rough location from your IP. If I change this policy I'll put the new date at the top.
