Your keystrokes stay on your device. Full Access is required only because Apple mandates it for any third-party keyboard — we use it solely to render fonts. We use anonymous analytics for product improvement (screens opened, crash diagnostics, subscription state via Amplitude and Adapty) — never your typed content. See our Privacy Policy for full details. SUBSCRIPTION Custom offers an optional subscription to unlock the full font library and remove restrictions. Auto-renews monthly or yearly unless cancelled in your Apple ID Subscriptions at least 24 hours before the end of the period. Manage anytime in Settings.
