Murmur Privacy Policy
Last updated: October 10, 2026
Murmur is a voice-notes app for iPhone, Apple Watch and Mac. This policy says what Murmur does with your information.
The short version
- Your notes are yours. Murmur has no ads, does not sell data, and does not track you across apps or websites.
- Audio and text leave your device only to do something you asked for: transcribe, organize, sync, or talk to an agent you connected.
- You can delete your account and everything stored with it from inside the app.
What Murmur stores
On your devices. Recordings, transcripts, notes, tasks and settings are stored on your iPhone, Apple Watch and Mac. Your Apple Watch sends recordings to your iPhone directly.
Murmur Cloud (Murmur Pro subscribers). If you subscribe, your recordings and notes are stored in Murmur Cloud so they sync between devices and survive a lost phone. Murmur Cloud runs on Supabase in the United States. Each account's data is locked to that account. You sign in with Sign in with Apple, which can hide your email address from us.
Your own data layer (optional). If you connect your own server (a "Nucleus"), Murmur syncs to that server instead, and its owner controls the data.
Who processes your data
- Transcription and AI. Audio is sent to a speech-to-text service, and text is sent to an AI model, to produce transcripts, summaries, tasks and insights. For subscribers this goes through Murmur Cloud to our AI providers (currently Groq and Alibaba Cloud Model Studio). If you add your own key or choose Local AI, requests go straight to the provider or computer you picked. You can also choose on-device transcription, which never leaves your iPhone. The providers we use do not use API data to train their models.
- Agents you connect. Messages you send in the Agent tab go to the agent you connected, and that agent's owner handles them under their own terms.
- Feedback. If you send feedback from inside the app, your message, an optional screenshot, your device model, OS and app version, and recent app logs are sent to the developer so they can fix the problem.
- Payments. Subscriptions are handled by Apple. We receive proof that a subscription is active, never your payment details.
What we don't do
- No advertising or ad networks.
- No third-party analytics or tracking SDKs.
- No selling or sharing of your data for marketing.
Deleting your data
In Murmur, go to Settings → Murmur Pro → Delete account. This permanently deletes your Murmur Cloud account and everything stored in it. Notes stored only on your devices are removed when you delete the app.
Children
Murmur is not directed to children under 13.
Changes
If this policy changes, the new version will be posted here with a new date.
