What FlowType processes
- Audio recordings you choose to capture in the app
- Transcripts and polished text generated from those recordings
- Basic anonymous session information needed to connect the app to its backend services
- Usage information such as remaining weekly dictations
How FlowType uses this information
- To transcribe and polish your voice input
- To return transformed versions of your text, such as shorter or more professional rewrites
- To keep the service available and enforce usage limits
- To troubleshoot service issues and improve reliability
Audio handling
FlowType only records when you tap the record button. It does not listen in the background.
Audio is temporarily captured on device for processing and then, if you allow it in the app, sent to FlowType's backend and AI service providers to create your transcript and polished result.
Local storage
FlowType stores recent polished drafts on your device so you can reopen them later. You can clear recent drafts from the app.
Third-party services
FlowType uses Supabase to host backend endpoints, create anonymous sessions, and support usage/account requests.
FlowType uses OpenAI to transcribe audio and generate polished or rewritten text from the content you submit.
Data sharing
FlowType does not sell your personal information.
FlowType may share data with Supabase and OpenAI only as needed to operate transcription, rewriting, hosting, authentication, and usage tracking.
Before FlowType sends recordings, transcripts, polished text, or rewrite text for AI processing, the app asks for your permission inside the app.
FlowType only shares this data with service providers used to operate the app on FlowType's behalf and expects those providers to protect the data while processing it for the service.
Your choices
- You can deny microphone access, although recording will not work without it.
- You can clear recent drafts saved on your device from inside the app.
- You can decline or later withdraw permission for AI processing from inside the app. Without that permission, FlowType will not send recordings or text to Supabase and OpenAI for cloud processing.
- You can delete the current anonymous FlowType account from inside the app.
- You can stop using the service at any time.
