I wonder how these apps secure the “indexed” data on device. These on-device databases are probably ripe for exfiltration by malware to get all of your juicy details in a neat, formatted table/database format.

Thanks for bringing this up. We store the index encrypted on disk with a randomly generated key. The key is itself stored in the Keychain.
