Common topics
| Using Vent Buddy without a key | Journal, emotion history, punching, Rage Release, and scream-intensity tools can be used without OpenRouter. |
|---|---|
| OpenRouter key | Optional AI text tools use your own key. The key is stored in iOS Keychain and OpenRouter usage belongs to the key owner. |
| AI request privacy | Prompts sent through an AI feature go to OpenRouter and may be routed to a model provider under their policies. |
| Microphone permission | Microphone input is used for local scream-intensity metering and is not uploaded by Vent Buddy. |
| Urgent help | Vent Buddy is not therapy, crisis counseling, medical care, or emergency support. Contact local emergency services for immediate danger. |
Accounts and data
Vent Buddy has no account backend. Remove the saved OpenRouter key in the OpenRouter Key screen, remove local records through available feature controls, and remove the app to clear its app container. OpenRouter requests are controlled through the OpenRouter account and routed provider.
