Easy Write 2.0

Translate and rewrite selected text without leaving the app you are using.
Free, open source, and powered by Apple's on-device model.

What is new

  • Easy Write Bar: press Option-Command-K to choose a language, tone or writing action,
    then review the result before replacing or copying.
  • Two-way translation: Option-Command-T translates into your target language or back
    into your own. Option-Command-E opens a reader card for selected text.
  • Formal or informal: choose the relationship as well as the language, including German
    Sie/du. Keep optional language and tone preferences per app.
  • Your own actions: save instructions for grammar, shorter drafts, polite replies and more.
  • Native interface: redesigned menu-bar panel, reader, settings and notch progress display.
  • Privacy controls: glossary, style notes, and optional local history that is off by default.

Install or upgrade

  1. Quit any running copy of Easy Write.
  2. Download EasyWrite-2.0.dmg, open it and drag Easy Write.app into Applications.
  3. Launch from Applications, grant Accessibility, and ensure Apple Intelligence is ready.

Requirements: Apple Silicon, macOS 26 or later, and Apple Intelligence enabled with
its model ready. App support varies because source apps must expose their selected text.
AI can make mistakes; review important output.

Coming from 1.x? This upgrade needs one manual installation. Settings migrate, but macOS
may require a new Accessibility grant. The older app cannot receive an updater retroactively.
Future update checks are optional. Homebrew installation is not offered yet.

Translation and rewriting stay on your Mac. Optional update checks contact update servers but
never include selected text. History, if enabled, stores text locally without encryption.

Both the app and installer are Developer-ID signed and notarized. This release is 2.0, build 24.
