Scribe — free, on-device dictation for macOS. Signed and notarized: open the DMG, drag Scribe to Applications, launch. Apple Silicon, macOS 13+.
What's new in beta.4
Accessibility — from our first blind tester's feedback:
- VoiceOver-gentle dictation: when VoiceOver is running, Scribe no longer types text in per-utterance bursts (which made VoiceOver talk over itself). Your full transcript is inserted once at the end of the session, with a polite announcement.
- Fixed status announcements that never actually reached assistive technology.
Language awareness:
- New setup-wizard step tells you up front which 25 languages the speech model understands, and warns if your Mac's language (for example Arabic or Japanese) is not supported yet — instead of failing silently.
Polish:
- The installer window is now properly branded.
- Acknowledgements for the open-source components and models Scribe stands on are linked from the About window.
