Privacy Policy

Last updated: November 15, 2026

MotetKeys is an Android keyboard published by Motet LLC ("Motet Labs," "we," "us"). A keyboard sees everything you type, so we built MotetKeys so that nothing it sees can leave your phone. This policy explains what the app does and does not do with your information.

The short version

MotetKeys has no internet permission. It cannot send anything to us or anyone else over the internet, and we never receive what you type, say or copy. Dictation, suggestions, spelling, grammar and AI features all run on your phone. There are no accounts, no ads, no analytics and no crash reporting in the app. The one way information leaves the phone is Remote keyboard, a Bluetooth feature you turn on yourself (described below).

No internet access

The app is built without Android's INTERNET permission, and our build process fails if that permission is ever added back. One of the open-source components we use (ONNX Runtime, for grammar checking) normally includes Microsoft telemetry; we remove the permissions it needs, so it cannot send anything.

Speech and AI model files are not downloaded by the app. You download them yourself in your web browser, from links we recommend, and then import them into MotetKeys. Your browser and the site you download from handle that download under their own privacy policies.

What stays on your phone

The following is processed and stored only on your device, in the app's private storage:

• Typing and dictation. Text you type and words you dictate are processed on the phone. Microphone audio is turned into text on the phone and is never saved or sent.
• Learned words. New words and the words you use together, so suggestions improve. Nothing is learned from password fields. You can erase learned data in AI models.
• Clipboard history. Recent copies are kept in memory only and disappear when the keyboard closes. Items you pin are saved on the phone. Copies marked sensitive and copies made in password fields are skipped.
• Your setup. Macros, themes, layouts, profiles, sticker packs you build from your own images, and settings.
• AI models you import, which you can delete at any time.

Uninstalling MotetKeys or clearing its app data deletes all of this.

Permissions and why we ask

• Microphone: for dictation, only while you are dictating.
• Contacts (optional): if you allow it, contacts' names are added to the word list so they aren't "corrected," and the Contacts panel lets you insert a contact's number, email or address. Contacts are read on the phone only and are never sent anywhere.
• Nearby devices / Bluetooth (optional): only for Remote keyboard. Bluetooth scanning is never used to find your location.
• Notifications: to show a notice while Remote keyboard is running.
• Vibration: for key-press haptics.

Remote keyboard (Bluetooth)

Remote keyboard is off until you turn it on. When it is on, MotetKeys acts as a Bluetooth keyboard and trackpad, and the keystrokes, text, clips and pointer movements you send go directly to the computer or device you paired, over an encrypted Bluetooth connection. They do not pass through us. While Remote keyboard is in use, the keyboard learns nothing and keeps no history of what you sent. Paired computer details (name, Bluetooth address and your settings for it) stay on the phone.

Password fields

In fields Android marks as passwords, MotetKeys shows no key previews, learns nothing and keeps nothing in clipboard history. If you use a password manager, its autofill suggestions come from that password manager through Android, not from MotetKeys.

Other apps on your phone

Some features hand text to parts of Android you already use: Read aloud uses your phone's text-to-speech engine, and stickers are sent through Android's keyboard image feature to the app you are typing in. Those apps handle the content under their own policies.

Files you choose to share

Backups, macro and theme exports, and diagnostic reports are saved only where you choose (for example, a file on your phone). Diagnostic reports do not include what you typed unless you turn on the optional typing log, which is off by default. We only see a report if you decide to send it to us.

Information we receive

We receive nothing from the app. If you email us, we receive your email address and what you write, and use it only to reply. Google Play may give us limited statistics, such as install counts and crash reports you have agreed to share with Google, under Google's privacy policy.

Children

MotetKeys is not directed to children under 13. The app does not collect personal information from anyone.

Changes to this policy

If we change how MotetKeys handles data, we will update this page and the date above before the change takes effect.
