Field notes
The site explains that macOS Input Monitoring permission is used to identify key presses so the app can play the matching sound. It describes stereo playback, slight pitch and velocity variation, and custom sound packs made from recordings plus a small JSON file. The listed license covers two Macs and includes future updates.
