What is Dictly?

Dictly is an exceptional dictation application tailored specifically for Apple devices, converting spoken language into well-formatted text on your device while emphasizing user privacy through offline capabilities. This app enables real-time speech transcription with impressive latency under 100 milliseconds and includes a Quick Capture overlay on macOS, allowing users to start dictation in any application via a global hotkey. Furthermore, it offers multiple insertion methods such as type-out, paste, and clipboard options, along with an auto-submit feature that is particularly beneficial for chat applications or messaging interfaces. Users can design custom Workflows that format their spoken input in real-time, effectively turning casual notes into organized documents, bullet points, or code comments, while the app smartly adapts to different applications through distinct per-app profiles. Additionally, Dictly features a customizable dictionary to cater to specific names, brands, jargon, or coding syntax, as well as a comprehensive transcription history complete with a search function. Local analytics tools are also provided for monitoring spoken word counts and time management, ensuring that all processing occurs directly on the device without dependence on cloud services, telemetry, or external factors. In summary, Dictly not only meets a diverse array of dictation requirements but also firmly prioritizes the security of user data, making it an indispensable tool for those who value privacy and efficiency. Whether you're a professional, student, or casual user, Dictly enhances productivity by streamlining the dictation process and fostering a seamless user experience.

What is Apple Dictation?

Apple Dictation is a built-in feature in macOS that enables users to input text vocally in any application that accepts text entry. After activating the feature, users can start it by using the Microphone key, a custom keyboard shortcut, or by choosing Start Dictation, and they can end it by pressing the Escape key, the same shortcut, or the Microphone key once more. For Apple silicon Mac users, it is possible to continue typing while using dictation; the feature will resume listening once the user stops typing. Users can also give voice commands to add emoji, punctuation, new lines, and paragraphs, with the system automatically inserting commas, periods, and question marks in supported languages. Dictation can accommodate text of any length and will automatically stop after 30 seconds of silence. If macOS encounters uncertainty with a word, it highlights the text for users to select an alternative or correct it manually. Furthermore, users can activate multiple Dictation languages and switch between them seamlessly while speaking, along with the option to choose their desired microphone or let macOS select one automatically. This versatility not only enhances productivity but also significantly improves accessibility across various macOS applications, making it an invaluable tool for users.
