Snap Spell Privacy Policy
Last updated: May 24, 2026
Snap Spell is designed for local, parent-led spelling practice. The app avoids accounts, ads, analytics, and tracking.
Scanning and text recognition
When you scan a printed word list or import a selected photo, Snap Spell uses on-device text recognition to detect words.
- Camera access is used only when you choose to scan printed words.
- Photo access is used only for photos you choose to import.
- Original scan images are not kept by the app after recognition.
Saved data
Saved word lists, practice status, and voice settings are stored locally in the app container on your device.
- You can delete lists in the app.
- You can remove app data by deleting the app from your device.
- Snap Spell files are readable text files that can be exported and imported back into the app.
External actions
Some actions can open Apple or web services only after you choose them.
- Dictionary lookup uses Apple reference libraries when available.
- Google and pronunciation searches open Safari after you tap those actions, and the search term is sent to Google.
- Experimental voice model downloads contact GitHub-hosted download URLs only when you choose to download a model.
Support and TestFlight feedback
If you contact support, we receive the information you choose to send. If you send beta feedback through TestFlight, Apple shares that feedback with the developer according to TestFlight feedback flows.
No tracking
Snap Spell does not include third-party advertising, analytics SDKs, or tracking systems in the first release.
