Most practice information stays in protected files inside the app. Cloud features are optional, consent-based, and identify a purchase wallet rather than a named QnSub account.
Choose voice or typed input
You can use Interview Coach without microphone or speech-recognition permission by typing every answer. Manage microphone and speech-recognition access in system Settings. Turning either permission off prevents the corresponding voice feature until you grant it again.
Control Cloud Coach
Use Settings > Privacy and data to turn cloud coaching on or off. The session setup shows the choice again. Turning it off stops new answer, transcript, document, and topic text from being sent for cloud work. On supported devices, eligible tasks can use Apple Intelligence on device instead.
Control premium voice
The ElevenLabs “Natural interviewer voice” option is separate and off by default. When enabled, only validated interviewer text is sent through QnSub’s Cloudflare Worker to ElevenLabs. Your answers and audio are not sent for voice synthesis.
Delete individual records
Delete a practice session, custom topic, custom question, real-interview review, or saved real-interview audio from the relevant screen. Deleting a real-interview record removes its local transcript, review, and retained audio. Files you imported from another location remain in that original location.
Delete all practice data
Use the deletion controls in Settings to remove all local practice sessions, reports, progress, custom material, and related records while keeping other app configuration where the selected control says so.
Reset to factory settings
Use Settings > Reset to Factory Settings to delete the app’s local practice data, recordings, profile, preferences, consents, and simulated development purchases, then return to the introduction. Reset does not erase Apple purchase history, purchased production credits, the pseudonymous server wallet, purchase identifiers used to prevent duplicate redemption, or provider data already processed under provider terms.
Manage device backups
Practice files are excluded from iCloud and computer backups by default. If you enable “Include in device backups,” Apple-controlled backups may contain app data. Manage or delete those backups through Apple settings. QnSub cannot inspect or erase an Apple backup.
Manage purchases and credits
Apple controls payment credentials, transaction history, refunds, and App Store account records. The Interview Coach backend retains the pseudonymous wallet and purchase ledger so credit balance survives reinstall and a consumable purchase is not delivered twice. Email support for a wallet or privacy concern; verification may require limited Apple transaction information, but never send payment-card details.
Manage external links
Discord support, App Store pages, and YouTube topic searches open only when you choose them. Once opened, the destination’s own privacy controls apply. A YouTube search contains a built-in topic phrase, not your answer text.
