Common questions

Where do my files actually go?: Nowhere. They are read and processed inside this tab and written back to your disk when you save. The network log on this page shows exactly what crossed the wire.
If tools run in a browser, isn’t my file uploaded somewhere?: No. Opening a tool downloads the tool’s code to your device, once, the way installing an app does. From then on the tool runs on your device and reads your file from your disk — nothing about the file is sent anywhere. The network log on this page shows it: the requests you see are Kit fetching its own code and, once, currency rates.
Does Kit work offline?: Yes, for pages and tools shown as ready in Offline access in Settings. Download them before disconnecting; installing Kit alone does not save every tool. Fresh exchange rates still need a connection.
