# Privacy Policy: Dictation Indicator

Last updated: September 24, 2026

## The app

Dictation Indicator for Mac collects nothing. Specifically:

- **No audio.** It never records or listens to the microphone. It only checks which apps are using the microphone, which is why macOS never asks it for microphone access.
- **No network requests.** The app never connects to the internet itself. Nothing leaves your Mac.
- **Purchases go through the App Store.** If you subscribe, Apple handles the payment. The app only learns whether you have an active subscription.
- **Shared post links stay on your Mac.** If you paste a link to a post you shared on X or LinkedIn into the app, the app only checks that it looks like a post on that network. It never opens the link.
- **No account.** There is nothing to sign up for.
- **No analytics or tracking.** No usage data, crash reports or identifiers are collected.

Your Settings, such as border color and which apps trigger it, are stored only on your Mac.
