Sovereign Keyboard: privacy policy
Last updated: 3 October 2026
Sovereign Keyboard (the "Sovereign" app and its keyboard) is built so that what you type stays yours. It collects nothing, and sends nothing anywhere. The app and the keyboard contain no networking, analytics, advertising or tracking code, and there is no account to create.
What stays on your iPhone
To learn how you type, the keyboard keeps the following on your iPhone, in storage that only the Sovereign app and its keyboard can read:
- A typing log, only if you turn on "Learn from my typing" (it is off until you do): what you type with the keyboard, where you tap keys, and your corrections. It is never written in password, one-time-code, card-number or number-pad fields.
- What it has learned: where you tap each key, words you use that it didn't know, corrections you undid, email addresses you type, and a small language model built from your typing.
- Messages you choose to import (for example a WhatsApp chat export): only your own messages are kept, after links, email addresses, phone and card numbers and anything that looks like a password or key have been removed.
- Your contact names and text replacements, which iOS provides to keyboards, are used only while the keyboard runs and are not stored by it.
"Allow Full Access" is needed only so the keyboard and the Sovereign app can share this storage on your phone; the keyboard does not use it to connect to the internet.
Your control
- Export: Sovereign app › Your data › Export all data saves everything above as one file that you can keep, move to another phone or delete.
- Delete: the Sovereign app can delete the typing log, imported messages and the touch model; deleting the app deletes everything.
- iPhone backups (iCloud or computer) include this data like any other app's data, under Apple's backup settings.
Apple and TestFlight
If you install a test version through TestFlight, Apple may share crash reports and any feedback you send with the developer, as described in Apple's TestFlight terms. That happens through Apple, not through this app.
