How to do it

/e/OS ships with an open-source keyboard that does not send typing data to the cloud. You can clear local dictionary learning inside keyboard settings.

Menu names may differ by device and version.

What you lose

Clearing the personalised dictionary resets custom word suggestions.

What is collected

Typed words, custom dictionary terms, frequent phrases, typing cadences.

It operates to make typing faster and more accurate across your applications.

Retention is not stated here. The sensitivity rating is this site's own estimate.
