Recording & playback
Microphone access, audio output, pauses, and appending more voice.
Transcription
On-device availability, complete text, and per-thought controls.
Location & media
Optional location, camera, Photos picker, and exporting.
Privacy & deletion
Encryption, Recently Deleted, and permanent removal.
Recording and playback
Allow microphone access in iPhone Settings > Privacy & Security > Microphone. A new voice thought can begin automatically only when that option is enabled in Inner Thought Settings.
If playback is silent, check the iPhone volume, Control Center audio destination, and connected Bluetooth devices. Inner Thought asks iOS to play through the speaker when no other destination is selected.
Transcription
Transcription is optional and uses Apple’s on-device recognition. Availability can depend on the selected language and whether its on-device speech model is installed. All recognized passages are accumulated with the thought; natural pauses should not erase earlier words.
You can keep voice with no transcript, dictate text without saving audio, or type directly. The global preference lives in Settings, and voice transcription can be changed for each capture.
Location, photos, and video
Location is a single optional point, never a track. If it was omitted, you can add or update it later from the saved thought. Turn the default off in Settings or use the capture-screen control for one thought.
Photos and videos are stored privately inside Inner Thought by default. Use Save to Photos only when you want an additional copy in Apple Photos.
Privacy, storage, and deletion
Saved thought content and media are encrypted on your device. The encryption key is held by iOS Keychain. Read the full privacy policy for the precise boundary.
A deleted thought stays recoverable for 30 days in Settings > Recently Deleted. Delete Forever removes it immediately; after 30 days the app removes it automatically.
Accessibility support
Accessibility failures are product failures. If VoiceOver, Voice Control, Switch Control, Larger Text, Reduce Motion, contrast, captions, or another access need is not working gracefully, please contact us and name the task you were trying to complete.
