Screen Recording & Accessibility Permissions
TabTabTab requires screen recording and accessibility permissions to enable its core functionality:
- We take screenshots in two specific scenarios:
- When you initiate a "magic copy" without selecting text
- During the paste operation to determine the target context
- These screenshots are processed by our AI services (Claude by default, optionally Google)
- Screenshots from paste operations are temporarily held in memory during your session
- All screenshots are cleared when the server restarts
- We never record videos or audio
- Accessibility features are used for:
- Keyboard shortcut detection

- Simulating keyboard input to create natural typing effects when pasting text
