No need for iCloud storage. You are only limited by the storage on the iPad itself as everything is stored locally.

Yes, you can export all your content as a .muse bundle — which you can rename to a .zip and unzip to get all the source data.

Also, even after your subscription ends, you will still have access to your content (and to the export feature) indefinitely. You just can’t create new cards (as long as you have more than 100).

It’s really important to us that your data isn’t locked into Muse, not by the data format and not by a subscription requirement.

You are right. I left that out of the video to focus on the more interesting features. There is a small note on the website about how text selection could work with gaze and touch:

---

Text Selection

Place one finger on the touchpad to adjust a cursor at the gaze position. Use a second finger to set the end of the selection.

Yeah, the two 6 finger gestures are certainly not ideal. I imagined a much larger touchpad, between the size of the Apple Keyboard and Apple Trackpad, so that might make it a little easier.

It's also important to note that these two gestures perform features (fullscreen / minimize) that can also be done by just resizing the panel (either with 3 fingers, or by going to App Control).

Sadly, technology isn't good enough for eye tracking to completely replace the mouse. Your eye will always flutter a little and wander around, so you can't rely on eye tracking exclusively.

It's also not really practical to perform gestures with your eyes. So you'll still want a touchpad to have quick access to common features through these gestures.

I have actually researched this topic quite a lot, and have also been prototyping with a Tobii EyeX tracker.
