Secretary now runs entirely on Apple's own infrastructure. Nothing you type or say ever touches our servers, it stays strictly between your phone and Apple. You don't need to create an account either, we don't even ask for your name. Think of Secretary as an always ready assistant you carry right in your phone. It organizes your calendar, reminds you of forgotten tasks right on time, and adds new contacts or notes down birthdays whenever you need. It places phone calls, connects via FaceTime, drafts and sends your emails or messages, calculates travel times to your destination, checks the weather, plays your favorite music, and summarizes anything on your mind. It does all of this within a single chat window, whether through text or voice. You don't even have to touch your phone if you don't want to, simply add a shortcut to access it instantly via Siri or Back Tap. The more you talk to Secretary, the better it gets to know you. It remembers your habits and preferences, so you never have to repeat yourself from scratch. That memory lives in your own iCloud account too, nobody else can reach it, not even us. It feels just like talking to a friend who has known you for years. Let's be clear about how privacy actually works here. Your message goes straight from your phone to Apple's own Private Cloud Compute, and the reply comes back the same way. Our servers are never part of that journey, because we don't have any. There's no account, no password, no profile to fill out. You download Secretary and start using it right away. A subscription is required to access all of Secretary's features. Once you try it, you'll see just how seamlessly it fits into your daily life.
