Every word you type. Every message. Every search. Every note to yourself at 2 AM that you deleted before sending. Your keyboard has seen all of it. Most keyboards send your keystrokes to a server for autocorrect and "improvements." The permission is buried in the terms of service. The data travels whether you meant it to or not. SafeType doesn't. There is nothing to send. Autocorrect, autocomplete, emoji suggestions, and on-device speech-to-text — everything works locally on your iPhone. No network calls. No telemetry. No log of what you typed, when, or to whom. This is not "we encrypted it." This is not "we anonymized it." This is: it never left your phone. That claim is backed by architecture, not policy. What you get: • Full keyboard with autocorrect and autocomplete • Emoji suggestions • On-device speech-to-text — no microphone data sent anywhere • No account required What we don't do: • No network access — by design, not by setting • No data collection of any kind • No keystroke logging • No analytics or telemetry • No cloud processing You type. The words are yours. That's it. From Digital Disconnections — software that works without watching you.
