FAQ
Questions the site should answer before you install.
The FAQ reinforces the same trust model stated everywhere else: explicit sessions, frontmost activity, local camera processing, and summaries rooted in a visible timeline.
Does ActualFocus watch everything on my computer? 01
No. The app is built around explicit sessions and frontmost activity. It does not score every process or every background task.
Do camera frames leave my Mac? 02
No. Camera-derived checks stay local to the device. The website and the website build of the app do not use those frames as remotely stored analytics.
What does the website track? 03
The site is currently shipped without client-side analytics enabled. When website analytics is turned on, it will stay anonymous-only and explicit-only.
What happens after I install from the website? 04
Fresh website installs use default-on anonymous telemetry for the app build associated with this site. The setting is visible in-app and turns telemetry off immediately when toggled.
Why is the download page so explicit about setup friction? 05
Because trust is part of the product. The site states the macOS requirement, setup expectations, permissions flow, and release integrity details before you download.
