Nothing leaves your Mac.
Apple Intelligence hears you and plans every step on your Mac. Here is everything VoiceCtrl keeps, and where.
Stays on your MacOn-device
Dropped as soon as it’s transcribed.
Kept for the current session only.
Used for the task at hand, never written to disk.
Kept for the current session only.
Stay until you reset or remove VoiceCtrl.
When the app goes online
Happens in your browser, on this site.
Registers the Mac and sends its totals at launch and once a day.
Checks for app updates. Apple downloads its speech and language models, which then run offline.
Nothing goes over the network while a command runs.
Held by your account
Kept until you delete your account.
Model, macOS and app version, until you remove the Mac.
Voice commands used and Smart Commands saved. Counts only, never what you said.
Pro, coming soonOpt-in
Off unless you turn them on. Requests are encrypted and carry what you said and a list of possible actions, never your screen or files.
Encrypted on your Mac before it leaves. Only your Macs hold the key, so we can’t read it.
Delete everything
Deleting your account removes your email, your Macs and their totals from our servers. Everything else lives on your Mac and goes when you remove the app.
