Privacy, iCloud and Full Access

What stays on your phone, what syncs, and why each permission is asked for.

The short version

NuKey does not collect your data, and its App Store privacy disclosure says so. Proofreading runs on the device with Apple Intelligence. Nothing you type leaves.

What stays on the device

What you typeNever uploaded. Not by suggestions, autocorrect, swipe typing or proofreading.
Rewind capturesEncrypted in the keyboard's private container. The app never reads them, and nothing syncs.
StatsCounted on the device. Shared only by you.
Unpinned clipboard historyStays on the device and clears after your retention period.

What syncs through your private iCloud

  • NuKey Adapt's bounded per-key aggregates, so it can be restored after reinstalling. No words and no individual touch points.
  • Pinned clipboard clips and collections.
  • Your keyboards and settings backup, so a new phone is ready.

Full Access

See what Full Access is for. iOS shows a warning that any keyboard with it enabled may transmit what you type. For NuKey that is a platform warning, not behaviour.
