## What is Hints?

Say or type one sentence, like "Emma wants a proper pasta machine," and Apple Intelligence turns it into a gift idea on Emma's card, ready before her birthday. No forms.

The best gift idea is the one they already told you. Hints keeps those: the gift ideas, sizes and dates of everyone you buy for, written from what they actually said. Hints never invents gift ideas. It only keeps the ones people really mentioned.

PLEASE NOTE: Apple Intelligence is what reads your sentences, and it needs an iPhone 15 Pro or newer with Apple Intelligence turned on. On other iPhones, or with it off, Hints still works: you fill in each hint yourself, and everything else is the same.

ONE SENTENCE IN
• Type it in the capture bar, dictate it, or say "Add a hint in Hints" to Siri.
• Share a link or a screenshot from any app. Hints reads the page or the text in the image and files it under the right person.
• Mention two people in one note and Hints splits it by person.
• You check every hint before it's saved. If a note can't be read, it's kept, not lost.

MORE THAN GIFT IDEAS
• Sizes and facts: shoe size, ring size, the flowers they can't stand, the headphones they already have.
• Dates: birthdays, anniversaries, Christmas, and one-off occasions like a housewarming. Pick whose birthdays to bring in from Contacts, or add your own.
• Everything sits under the person it belongs to: their wishlist, sizes and dates on one card, with a sticker for the occasion.

READY BEFORE THE DAY
• A reminder two weeks before each birthday or occasion (or one week, or a month), so there's time to get the gift. The reminder never shows your hints on the Lock Screen.
• Your hints sync through your own iCloud, so they're on every iPhone you use and come back after a reinstall.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
Apple Intelligence reads it. We never see it. No account.
Hints uses Apple Intelligence. When it can, it uses Apple's larger model through Private Cloud Compute; otherwise it uses the model on your iPhone. Private Cloud Compute keeps nothing, and not even Apple can read what it processes. There's no account and no server of ours. Your hints live on your iPhone and in your iCloud, and one tap in Settings deletes all of it.

When you share a link, Hints loads that page once to read its title and description. Hints collects anonymous usage statistics, which never include your notes, names or gift ideas.

SUBSCRIPTION
Hints is one yearly subscription with a 14-day free trial. Nothing else to buy, no ads. Payment is charged to your Apple Account when the trial ends, and the subscription renews unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it in your Apple Account settings.

REQUIREMENTS
iOS 26 or later. For Apple Intelligence to read your sentences: an iPhone 15 Pro or newer, Apple Intelligence turned on, and the iPhone and Siri set to a supported language, such as English. Without it, you add hints by hand.
