FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to pay for the AI features?

The AI conversations use a third-party AI provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google). You bring your own API key from one of those providers and add it in Settings → AI Settings. Reading, highlighting, and note-taking work fully without any AI key.

Where is my data stored?

On your device. TruNaut is local-first and has no account system. See the Privacy Policy for details.

Which file formats can I import?

EPUB and PDF files, plus web pages (added via + → Add Web Page), which are saved as readable articles.

How do I add a highlight?

Select text while reading and choose Highlight from the selection menu. You can then attach a note or start an AI conversation from that highlight.

My API key isn't working.

Double-check that the key is for the provider selected in Settings → AI Settings, that it's active in your provider account, and that the device has an internet connection.

Can I back up or export my highlights and notes?

Yes. In Settings, enable Highlights & Notes export (and/or Insights export) and choose a folder — for example an iCloud Drive or Obsidian folder — to get Markdown copies you control.

Still stuck?
