Nomi Privacy Policy
Updated November 5, 2026
Nomi helps you turn text, speech, and photos into an explanation and next steps. This policy describes the iPhone and iPad app. Nomi is for adults aged 18 and over. It stores an age confirmation on your device, without collecting your date of birth or an identity document.
What stays on your device
Nomi saves the captures you submit, their original text, image, or recording, recognized text, results, and preparation checks in the app’s private storage. This includes PDFs, scans and pictures you choose to add. Nomi does not require an account and does not operate a cloud service for your captures. Optional diagnostics and usage reports are described below. Recordings analyzed on this device are temporary and are removed after transcription or on the next launch after an unexpected exit. Recordings saved by earlier builds remain with their captures until you delete them. Unfinished text and reviewed speech drafts are saved on your device so you can return to them. Nomi’s widget reads a small local copy of your next steps.
Captures and drafts are excluded from automatic device backup. You can create a password-protected backup and restore it on another device. You choose where that file goes. It contains your original inputs and results, and a destination such as cloud storage may apply its own privacy practices.
Sharing into Nomi
If you choose Nomi in the system share sheet, the selected text, photos or PDF wait in a protected local inbox, excluded from device backups. Nomi removes the waiting copy after it saves the capture. If the import fails, you can retry or remove the waiting item. Removing it from Nomi does not delete the source in the other app.
Analysis stays on your device
Version 1.0 (build 41) uses only Apple Intelligence’s on-device model through Apple’s Foundation Models framework. Nomi uses it to explain captures, translate text, suggest next steps, and answer your questions. Text recognition and speech transcription also run on your device. Captures, original photos and documents, recordings, added details, questions, and answers are not sent to Magnetic Enterprises, Apple’s cloud models, or a third-party AI service for analysis.
Apple Intelligence must be enabled on a supported device with a supported language. Apple may download the system model and speech language assets. If the model is unavailable, Nomi keeps your capture and explains how to retry. It does not switch to cloud AI. This build has no external AI connections, API-key setup, custom AI servers, or downloadable model catalog. No permission to share content with an AI service is requested because this build does not share that content.
Saved model choices from earlier builds are reset to Apple Intelligence. Existing captures remain available. Old API keys and model files are not used. Updating cannot recall content that you previously sent to an external provider. Any such copy remains subject to that provider’s retention and deletion practices. Contact that provider to request deletion. Nomi does not sell capture content or use it for advertising.
Optional diagnostics and usage
When available, Diagnostics & usage offers separate, off-by-default choices. Diagnostics sends crash, error, performance, and session reports to Magnetic Enterprises to find and fix app problems. Usage sends limited interaction counts, such as opening the app, to understand which features are used. Reports include app version and platform information, not your captures, questions, recordings, API keys, or a persistent device identifier. The service derives a country code from the connection for reports. The network infrastructure receives an IP address to deliver the request.
Raw reports are retained for 30 days. Aggregated counts and issue summaries are retained for up to 400 days. Turning either choice off stops that reporting and removes its unsent reports. It does not recall reports already delivered. Analysis does not require either choice.
Calendar and permissions
If you choose Add to Calendar, Apple’s event editor shows a draft. Nomi does not read your calendar. An event is saved only when you confirm in the editor; your chosen calendar service may then sync it under that service’s settings. Camera access is used to capture a photo. Microphone access is used for speech capture. You can change these permissions in device Settings.
If you set a reminder for a step or turn on date reminders, Nomi asks permission to schedule local notifications. A notification can show step details on your Lock Screen. Change notification previews in device Settings. Nomi keeps reminders on the device and leaves them out of its backups and exports.
Retention and your choices
Captures stay on your device until you delete them in Nomi or remove the app. Deleting a capture removes its original input, result, and saved questions from Nomi and its widget snapshot. Exported files and calendar events are outside Nomi and must be deleted where you saved them. Because Nomi has no account or server copy of your captures, there is no remote capture record for us to delete.
