Kapti for iPhone, iPad and Mac

Most questions have one of the answers below.

Capturing words

How do I turn a word into a card?

Select the word wherever you met it, and send it to Kapti.

I selected a whole sentence, not a word

That is fine, and it is deliberate. Kapti asks which word the card is about and keeps the sentence as your example. A word you met in context is a word you remember.

Kapti is missing from the Services menu

Open Kapti once. macOS only registers a Service after the app has run. If it is still missing, check System Settings → Keyboard → Keyboard Shortcuts → Services, under Text.

Translation

The translation is empty

Kapti translates on your device using Apple's Translation framework, which needs the language pair downloaded first. On a new device the app offers to do this after your first capture.

If no pair is installed, the capture still works and the translation is left blank for you to type. That is intended, not a failure. You can download pairs in System Settings → General → Translation.

Nothing is sent anywhere to translate it

Correct. Translation and speech both run on your device, offline. See the privacy policy.

Sync

My cards are not on my other device

Kapti syncs through your own private iCloud database. Check that both devices are signed in to the same Apple Account, and that iCloud Drive is on for Kapti in Settings → Apple Account → iCloud.

Sync happens in the background and can take a moment after a capture. It also needs a network on at least one of the two devices.

Can you see my cards?

No. It is your iCloud, not a server the developer runs, and there is no way to reach it from the outside.

Buying and restoring

What is free, and what is not?

Capturing is never gated, and the starter deck is a gift that does not count against you. Fifty of your own words are free. After that, Kapti Unlimited removes the limit for a single payment — no subscription, and it is shared with your family group.

The limit stops new cards and nothing else. Studying, editing, reviewing and syncing what you already have keep working forever.

I paid, and it says I have not

Purchases are tied to your Apple Account. On a new device, open the unlock screen and choose Restore. Make sure you are signed in to the same Apple Account that bought it.

Refunds

Apple handles all payments and all refunds — the developer cannot see or issue them. Ask at reportaproblem.apple.com.

Your data

How do I delete everything?

Delete any card or deck in the app. To remove everything, delete the app, and turn off iCloud for Kapti to clear the synced copy. Nothing is kept anywhere else — there is no server to ask.
