Frequently asked questions

How does KI-Anonymizer work?

The macOS app anonymizes text locally on your Mac. The iPhone/iPad app Anonymisierer processes text, screenshots, photos, and supported files locally on the device. The Chrome browser extension supports anonymization directly in the browser. All variants are designed to clean up sensitive content before sharing it or pasting it into AI chatbots, email, documents, or other tools.

Does my text leave the device?

The anonymization step itself runs locally on the device. If you use this support page or the contact options listed here, the privacy notes on this page apply to those interactions.

Is the result always complete?

No. The app supports anonymization, but it does not replace human review. Before sharing, publishing, or using the output in a sensitive context, the result should always be checked.

Which platform is supported?

KI-Anonymizer is available as a native macOS app. In addition, there is the iPhone/iPad app Anonymisierer and a Chrome browser extension. Features and workflows vary by platform.

What happens with PDF files?

PDF files can be processed as text in the iPhone/iPad app. The PDF content is anonymized as plain text without the original formatting.

Important notes

  • The app does not replace legal, privacy, or professional assessment.
  • The result should always be checked manually before sending or publishing.
  • Apple NaturalLanguage and optional Apple Intelligence only support detection. They do not replace final human review.
