Transcribe what you say with Voxt#

中文

Transcribe types what you say at the cursor of the app you are in. First download a local speech model in Voxt and allow the microphone and Accessibility.

  1. Open Transcribe in the Voxt sidebar and check that Speech model is a downloaded local model. Start with the default shortcut, Right ⌥ Option.

  2. Open an empty text field and click it to place the cursor. Tap Right ⌥ Option, say “the meeting is tomorrow at 3 pm”, and tap Right ⌥ Option again. While you speak, the overlay at the bottom of the screen shows the text as it is recognised.

  3. The text appears at the cursor. Press Esc to cancel at any time.

To remove fillers and tidy up what you say, choose a language model you set up on the Transcribe page. If a result does not appear in the text field, it is on the clipboard: press ⌘V, then check where the cursor is and Voxt’s Accessibility permission. ⌃⌥V pastes the last result again. If recognition fails, the recording is kept, and Retry in History recognises it again. The current shortcut is the one on the Transcribe page.

Following this page, check Voxt’s local speech model and Transcribe shortcut, open an empty text field, and wait for me to say a harmless test sentence. When I finish, check that the result went in at the cursor. If macOS asks for a permission, let me answer it.
