6. AI Features

SquidSwift includes AI-assisted features such as auto-captions, speech transcription, and background removal. These features run on your device and produce automated results that may contain errors or inaccuracies.

You are responsible for reviewing AI-generated output, such as captions, before publishing it, particularly where accuracy matters for accessibility, legal, or safety purposes.
