v0.9.4
01a639b

If you're on 0.9.3, this update installs itself.

Coco Voice is a rebranded fork of the open-source Handy dictation app (MIT). The original license is retained.

What's new

  • Permissions now survive updates. Coco Voice is now signed with a stable Coco Research code-signing certificate instead of an ad-hoc signature. macOS ties your Accessibility grant to the certificate rather than to each build's fingerprint, so you no longer have to re-enable Accessibility after every update.
  • One-time re-grant on this version. Because 0.9.4 changes the signing identity (ad-hoc → certificate), macOS will ask you to grant Accessibility once more when you land on 0.9.4. After that, it sticks across future updates.

To re-grant: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility → enable Coco Voice, then quit and reopen the app.

Install (macOS, Apple Silicon)

Easiest — open Terminal and paste:

curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/coco-research/Coco-Voice/main/install.sh | bash

Or download Coco-Voice_0.9.4_aarch64.dmg below; see INSTALL.md for the one-time Gatekeeper step. (Already on 0.9.3? The app will offer this update itself.)

Notes

  • The app is signed with a self-signed certificate, not Apple-notarized, so the first-launch Gatekeeper step is unchanged (the installer handles it). Notarization would remove that too but requires a paid Apple Developer account.
  • This build was produced on a Command Line Tools-only toolchain, so the Apple Intelligence post-processing provider is still compiled as a stub; the deterministic correction dictionary is unaffected.
