Your voice and text stay on your PC
Vox0 processes microphone recordings locally with Whisper. It does not upload audio or transcriptions to the developer or an online transcription service. The microphone records while you hold your configured push-to-talk key. Recordings are processed in memory, not saved as audio files.
Vox0 types the resulting text into the focused editable field. It uses Windows accessibility to identify that field and sends Unicode keyboard input. It does not read the field's existing text or access your clipboard. Recent dictations remain in the application's in-memory history until you close it. The application receiving the text handles it under its own policy.
Local data
Settings and a bounded performance log are stored in the MSIX package's private LocalState folder under%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages. The log includes technical information such as timings, model and device details and transcription character counts, never the dictated text. Vox0 does not automatically send this log anywhere.
The Store app includes its speech models in the installation. Updates preserve your settings and logs. Uninstalling removes the app and its private data, including any model cache left by an older MSIX. Reinstalling starts with default settings. External model folders you select are not deleted. Older releases may have left data outside the package.
The source Development app uses its own profile in%LOCALAPPDATA%\Vox0Development and the Python environment's model cache; uninstalling the MSIX does not remove development data.
Internet connections
The Store app can dictate offline from first launch after installation. The source Development app and older releases may download or repair models from Hugging Face. That service receives connection information such as your IP address and requested model. It does not receive audio or dictation.
Vox0 requires no account and includes no advertising or developer analytics. Microsoft Store installation and updates are handled by Microsoft under its own privacy policy.
