How Littlebird sees
See what Littlebird notices while you work, what it ignores, and how to pause Context Awareness or exclude an app.
While you work, Littlebird regularly reads visible text and elements from your active application. It uses this context to answer questions about your recent work.
- it reads visible content from the active application
- it doesn’t record screen video or individual keystrokes
- it’s designed to ignore password fields
- it skips apps you exclude and stops while context awareness is paused
- it encrypts captured data and stores it in AWS
