Where Does FUTO Keyboard Store Voice Models?

FUTO Keyboard downloads offline voice models into private app storage on first use. Layouts and settings stay local with no account needed.

Last updated

FUTO Keyboard keeps everything on the phone. Layouts, themes, dictionaries, and learned words sit in local app storage with no account behind them. Privacy is the point: keystrokes never leave for a server.

Voice typing is the large exception to the small footprint. Offline models download on first use and dwarf everything else in size, living in the same private storage. A fresh install therefore means re-downloading models over WiFi before voice works again. Budget space and patience on metered connections.

Frequently asked questions

How do I enable offline voice typing?

Open FUTO Keyboard settings and find the voice input section. Models download on demand over WiFi and run fully on-device afterward. Without them, voice typing either fails or falls back to nothing, since no server exists to ask.

Do I lose my data if I reinstall?

Yes. Layouts, dictionaries, and learned words live in local app storage with no account to sync them. Reinstalling wipes learned data, so export settings from the app menu first when the option exists. Voice models must be re-downloaded after a wipe.
