In the past I have paid a bunch of money in subscriptions for apps like this. This app requires none of that, it has no backend. The only reason I am charging is so I can keep the app up to date for you, add features, and add the latest models as they become available. But with this app: Your Data = Your Business WalkWrite stores audio in Files  - On My iPhone  - WalkWrite/Audio and text in a small encrypted database. Delete a note and it’s gone—no replicas on someone else’s server. FAQ: Why is the app so large? The AI models are included with your app download, no other downloads required, no data sent anywhere. Is there a monthly or annual subscription? No, none. Is there an account required? No, none. Where are the notes stored? On your device and only shared if you chose to share them.
