A few things
you might ask.
Which Macs can run Scribed Talk?
Scribed Talk is a native macOS app for Apple silicon Macs running macOS 14 Sonoma or later. It needs microphone access to hear you and Accessibility permission to insert text into other apps.
What needs an internet connection?
You’ll need an internet connection to sign in with your Scribed account and download the voice model once, about 500 MB. Speech recognition itself runs locally on your Mac. Your voice isn’t sent to a cloud transcription service.
What happens to my recordings and history?
Audio is held in memory for transcription and isn’t saved to your history. Optional transcript history stays on your Mac; you can search, copy, export, or delete it. You can turn off new history and choose how many entries to keep. History is not encrypted by the app.
Can I choose my own shortcut?
Yes. The default is left Option: hold to speak and release to insert your words. You can change it in Settings. Double-press for hands-free dictation, then press Escape to finish. Each recording is limited to five minutes.
