Privacy Policy
Hark reads pages, PDFs and text aloud. The short version: everything happens on your iPhone. Hark has no account, no server and no tracking.
What stays on your iPhone
- The pages you scan, the PDFs you open and the text you paste, plus where you stopped in each one.
- How long you've listened each week, and your settings.
This is stored only in the app and protected by your iPhone's passcode. Delete it anytime in Settings → Delete all pages, or by deleting the app.
Camera
Hark uses the camera only when you tap Scan, to photograph the page you want read. The text is recognized on your iPhone by Apple's built-in text recognition. Photos are not uploaded anywhere.
Voices
Hark speaks with the voices built into your iPhone. Reading aloud happens on the device; your text is not sent to any speech service.
Clipboard
Hark reads your clipboard only when you ask it to, for example with "Paste text" or the "Read my clipboard with Hark" shortcut.
Reminders
If you start a free trial, Hark can remind you 2 days before it ends. The reminder is scheduled by iOS on your iPhone, and you can turn it off in Settings.
Purchases
Hark Pro is bought through Apple's App Store. Apple handles the payment. We never see your payment details, name, email or Apple ID.
No tracking, no ads
Hark has no advertising, no analytics and no tracking, and it doesn't send your data anywhere.
Children
Hark is not directed to children under 13.
Changes
If this policy changes, we will update this page and the date above.
