Email [email protected]I lost what I typed — how do I get it back?
After a crash, refresh, or session timeout, a blue recovery bar appears at the top of the page — click Restore and your work comes back. You can also open the DraftGuard popup and use the Recovery tab to browse and restore earlier drafts. Everything is saved locally as you type, so there's nothing to switch on.
How do I turn on AI drafting?
AI is off by default. Open onboarding (or Options → AI & Voice), opt in, and add a writing sample or take the quick interview. After that, a ✨ Draft from my voice option appears on application questions, and you can adapt your saved answers too. You always preview a draft before anything is inserted — nothing is auto-submitted.
Is my data private?
Recovery and autofill are 100% local — your typed content never leaves your device. The only thing that's ever sent is when you explicitly use an AI action, and only the specific question and context you choose. Passwords, payment/CVV, SSN, and one-time codes are never captured or sent. Full details are in the privacy policy.
It's not saving a certain field — why?
That's intentional and a feature, not a bug. DraftGuard never touches password, payment/CVV, SSN, one-time-code, hidden, or file fields. These exclusions are hardcoded and can't be turned off, even in settings.
Does it work alongside Chrome / Google autofill?
Yes — they coexist. Chrome fills your standard profile (name, address, payment); DraftGuard handles what Chrome ignores: long free-text answers, essays, and application questions. They don't compete for the same fields, so there's no conflict. You can run both.
Will it slow my browser down?
No. DraftGuard is lightweight and runs locally, so there's no noticeable impact on performance.
How do I uninstall or delete my data?
Remove the extension from chrome://extensions (or right-click the toolbar icon → Remove). Because everything is stored locally, uninstalling deletes your data with it. You can also export or clear your data anytime from Options → Storage / Privacy.
Found a bug or have a feature idea?
I'd genuinely love to hear it — email [email protected]. DraftGuard gets better from real feedback.
