Routine diagnostic information does not include information that directly identifies you or the contents of notes, audio, transcriptions, or attachments. The information collected is used to provide AI features, manage their use, and improve app quality. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
