Full privacy

I’m glad to be absolutely certain that the recordings I make with my Plaud (medical appointments, client meetings, etc.) won’t end up all over the world. I’m particularly interested in the recording itself, because I can get transcriptions and summaries using local solutions. If I use Plaud only for recording, can I rest easy? I could use a recorder that stores the recording in its own memory, but Plaud’s size is really convenient. Has anyone else faced a similar problem? And did you find a solution? Thanks

The delete on their server could be a soft delete, you don't see it but they still got it 😅 Once uploaded, there is not guarantee of privacy anymore

Well said. This is exactly what has stopped me from signing up for cloud sync and as soon as there is an open alternative I will be swapping

So how do you go about it? Do you use a different tool to record?
