About

Apple Dictation is a built-in macOS feature that lets users speak to enter text anywhere they can type. Once Dictation is enabled, it can be started with the Microphone key, a customizable keyboard shortcut, or Start Dictation, then stopped with Escape, the same shortcut, or the Microphone key. On Apple silicon Macs, users can continue typing while they dictate, and Dictation resumes listening after keyboard input stops. Spoken commands can insert emoji, punctuation, new lines, and new paragraphs, while supported languages can automatically add commas, periods, and question marks. Dictation supports text of any length and stops automatically after 30 seconds without detected speech. When macOS is uncertain about a word, it underlines the text so users can choose an alternative or correct it manually. Multiple Dictation languages can be enabled and switched while speaking, and users can select a preferred microphone or let macOS choose automatically.

About

Dictly is a professional-grade dictation tool built exclusively for Apple platforms that transforms your voice into styled text entirely on-device, offering a privacy-first, offline experience. The app enables real-time transcription with sub-100 ms latency, supports a Quick Capture overlay (on macOS) which lets you summon dictation in any app via a global hotkey, and offers multiple insertion modes (type-out, paste, clipboard) and auto-submit functionality for chat boxes or message fields. You can define custom Workflows to format your speech as you dictate, turning casual notes into polished writing, bullet lists, or code comments, and the app adapts to the app you’re in via per-app profiles. It includes custom dictionary support (for names, brands, jargon, or coding syntax), a full transcription history (with search), local analytics to track words spoken and time saved, and all processing happens locally, no cloud upload, telemetry, or dependency.
