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

KleenMic is a desktop app that reduces background noise from microphone audio before it reaches a calling app. It supports Apple Silicon Macs running macOS 14 or later and 64-bit Windows 10/11; Windows 11 on Arm uses x64 emulation. Users choose a physical microphone in KleenMic, enable noise removal, and select the KleenMic virtual microphone in compatible apps such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Google Meet, and Discord. Processing modes include Auto, Quality, and Efficient, with a live headphone test to check audio before a call. The Mac edition also provides echo control. Audio is processed locally and is not uploaded for noise removal. A 72-hour trial requires no account or payment card, followed by a one-time $20 license for one computer at a time. Trial launches and license activation require internet; a verified paid license works offline for up to 30 days.
