Frequently asked

Does my recording ever leave my phone?

No. Audio is recorded and transcribed entirely on your device. It is never uploaded anywhere, at any subscription tier. The only thing that can ever leave your device is transcript text, and only if you add your own AI provider key and explicitly request a reading — see the Privacy Policy for the full detail.

Why does Vichar need the microphone?

That's the whole app — Vichar listens for sound while your alarm is armed. It's the only permission Vichar asks for. Speech recognition is a second, optional permission that turns recorded sound into text, also entirely on-device.

What happens if I say no to a permission?

Nothing breaks. The alarm still works as a normal alarm. Without the microphone permission, Vichar simply won't record; without speech recognition, your recordings won't be transcribed into text.

Will the alarm still work if I don't subscribe?

Vichar's alarm is core functionality. If our subscription service is ever unreachable or misconfigured, the app is designed to stay fully usable rather than lock you out of your own alarm.

How do I delete my data?

Open the app's history screen to delete individual nights, or delete just the audio while keeping the transcript text. Uninstalling the app removes everything Vichar has stored locally on your device.

How do I cancel my subscription?

Subscriptions are managed through your Apple ID (Settings → your name → Subscriptions) or your Google Play account (Play Store → Menu → Subscriptions) — not inside Vichar itself, per App Store and Play Store policy.
