FAQ

Does Decode send my texts to ChatGPT or any LLM?

No. The decoding engine runs entirely on your device using a Swift-native algorithm. There is no LLM call. There is no network round-trip for decode or reply generation. You can verify this in Settings → Engine — it lists 0 servers, 33+ cultural cues, 378M+ engine variants. The binary contains no networking SDK that talks to ours or anyone's analytics.

Why are my decodes the same when I open the same message twice?

Decode is intentionally deterministic. The same message + same relationship + same regen-count produces the same draft, so reopening a conversation doesn't shuffle the work you've already considered. To get a different draft, tap "regenerate" on the card — that increments a counter and produces a new combination.

How do I really wipe my data?

Three ways, in increasing strength:

What does the free tier include?

5 decodes per month. Access to 5 default relationship presets (mom-chinese, mom-western, dad, boss, partner). Pro unlocks unlimited decodes, iteration mode, voice mode, all 20+ presets, and multi-language coverage.

I bought Pro and lost it after reinstalling.

Open Pro paywall → tap "restore purchase". Decode reads your Apple ID's entitlements via StoreKit and re-unlocks Pro. If that doesn't work, email us with your purchase receipt date — we'll help you contact Apple.

Decode misread the cultural context.

The engine ships with calibrations for 8 cultures and 14 relationship roles, but cultural context is a vast space. If a phrase reads wrong to you, please email us the phrase + the role + what you'd expect it to mean — we add cues every release. We will not log the actual message you sent.

Why no Android?

Solo dev. iOS-first. If Decode finds the audience CONCEPT.md predicts, Android comes next.

Will you add a "send for me" button?

No. Hitting send is the human's job. Decode helps you understand and draft. The send button stays in your hand.
