Several Knox Studios apps keep profiles, drafts, or quotes on your phone by default. Here is a plain-language guide to what local-first actually changes for you.
Key takeaways
On-device storage means core data lives in the app database on your phone, not a mandatory Knox cloud account.
Local-first still allows optional services like ads or paid Premium when those features are configured.
Apps such as LunaNova, Scripta, KewR, and FishCast emphasize privacy-centric workflows.
Always check each app’s Google Play Data safety section for the official declaration.
Local-first in practice
When Knox apps say on device, they mean the core records — birth charts, manuscripts, QR designs, or cached forecasts — are stored locally so you can work without creating a studio account first.
Examples across the catalog
LunaNova keeps birth data on device with no mandatory account.
Scripta stores manuscripts locally for offline drafting.
