Since 2 days, the app is not working anymore: ! Needs Attention: | Restart Dictation I deleted all files and app but no success. Any ideas? If it is working again - directly a huge thumps up!

Did not work on my mac M1

Risposta dello sviluppatore

Hey, Johnny 👋. Hmm, that's odd. In general, the M1 and 8GB of memory might not be enough for transcription with AI post-processing. But I think everything should work fine without "AI Polish." If you need any help, I'm always available at [email protected] 🙏.

This is a fantastic addition to Setapp, but having come from Wisprflow. It is not quite up to par with it yet in terms of speed and AI corrections, shortcuts, etc. I understand the reasons why that it is a local installation rather than a cloud installation, not to mention the millions in funding and teams of engineers no doubt Wisprflow has received! To get even close to it in the way JoyType has is a marvellous achievement. If you haven't used WhisperFlow then JoyType is an essential tool you need to use. Looking forward to seeing how this app develops and improves and hopefully switching over to it in the near future. Great work!

Hey, Neil 👋. Thank you. This honestly made my day 🙏. Although I'm building this app alone, I believe I'll be able to catch up with WhisperFlow in the next 3-6 months. The main thing is that local models keep improving at this pace.

Simple, fast, does what it's supposed to. Keeps getting better, too.

Keyboard command conflicts with InDesign. Seems no way to change.

Hey, BT 👋. The conflict between the hotkey for quickly inserting the last transcript and the system shortcut is a truly embarrassing bug. This will be fixed in the next release 🙏. --- Update: The hotkey conflict fix update is ready and published 🫡.

Love the app but it is unusable for me because I can’t set it to hands free recording (listening without touching a key the whole time) and can’t set my own shortcut combination (option + space in my case)

Risposta dello sviluppatore

17 mag 2026

Hey, Julius 👋. Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback 🙏. I understand your request. Indeed, the hotkey settings are currently very basic. I can say that hands-free mode and several new shortcuts, including option + space, will appear in the next update. P.S. You can always implement your own shortcuts mapping using the free Karabiner-Elements app. I'm always available and will be happy to help you if you write to me at [email protected]. --- Update: The hands-free mode is ready and published 🫡.

Love the app, It is my go-to as I work from. I notice the AI polish does take a bit of time before the text appears, which I expected this as local LLM model is required. Accuracy is pretty good. Few times where I needed to pronounce clearer for the word to be corrected.

Love the app! But it feels like it’s only for native English speakers, not Indonesian speakers. It would be better if the developer provided default settings for the main and second languages. *By the way, I write this review with this app

Risposta dello sviluppatore

Hey 👋. Thank you for your high rating. Especially considering I understand the app wasn't perfect for you 🙏. Yes, I think you're right. I think the current recognition models are better at understanding European and American accents. However, I hope that this year we'll see another generation of models that will be more user-friendly for users from other regions.

I’ve used dictation/transcription apps for decades. Once upon a time ’training’ and a’highly recommended mic’ were keys to creating documents with an acceptable error count. Today, JoyType just works and it’s stunningly accurate. My thanks to the developer(s).

Versione app: 26.4.20.0

This is a really useful and easy to use piece of software. Most of the time it produces text that is an exact transcription. Occasionally it throws up a random phrase that's nothing like what I'm saying. But ninety-five percent of the time it's great. Does it handle questions? Yes it does. I'm using it now to write this review. It can sense by the tone of my voice if it needs a question mark. Very clever. And it recognizes names too and capitalises them. Would be nice to have the option for it to learn my voice. When I say “oh”, it likes to type “uh”. Must be my accent. All in all, though, I love it.

Risposta dello sviluppatore

Hey, Geoff 👋. I'm very glad JoyType has been useful to you 🥹. I hope future releases will make it even more useful. Regarding personalized voice training, that's a very complex task. I'm currently considering user dictionaries and auto-replacements so that each user can independently improve the quality of their dictation.

Hola, Roberto 👋. Mmm, qué raro. Probé la app en algunos modelos de AirPods y funcionó perfectamente 🤔. Con gusto intentaré encontrar una solución a tu problema. Escríbeme a [email protected]

25 languages, but I don’t know which ones are included. At least Chinese isn’t included, and there’s nowhere to configure the language.”

Risposta dello sviluppatore

11 mag 2026

Hey, Chase 👋. Sorry for the inconvenience. Yes, indeed, the app description didn't include a precise list of supported languages. Here it is: Supported Languages: Bulgarian (bg), Croatian (hr), Czech (cs), Danish (da), Dutch (nl), English (en), Estonian (et), Finnish (fi), French (fr), German (de), Greek (el), Hungarian (hu), Italian (it), Latvian (lv), Lithuanian (lt), Maltese (mt), Polish (pl), Portuguese (pt), Romanian (ro), Slovak (sk), Slovenian (sl), Spanish (es), Swedish (sv), Russian (ru), Ukrainian (uk). As you can see, unfortunately, Chinese is not supported yet. I'll try to find a model to support it in future releases 🙏.

Переваги: - працює доволі швидко - приємний звук активації Недоліки: - англіцизми не розуміє - часто на російську перекладає - замало налаштувань(можна перевірит конкурентів) - немає історії - немає варіабельності звуків (оновлю оціночку як щось виправиться)

Risposta dello sviluppatore

11 mag 2026

Добрый день. Спасибо, что оставили конструктивный отзыв 🙏. Со всем согласен. Пока качество точно нельзя назвать идеальным. Я очень надеюсь, на следующие обновления локальных моделей в ближайшие 3-6 месяцев. Насчёт настроек пока не могу дать обещания. Все мои приложения имеют очень простой UX. Это мой принцип. Я думаю, что если человек готов к большому количеству настроек или имеет такой запрос, то, скорее всего, на рынке есть много отличных приложений.

Awesome, App, I use to create mind maps, for couses, the capture was great. I love the the app works locally, because sometimes I experimenting internet issues and the app works really good. Keep doing a great job. Congratulations. Waiting for the iPhone app

Very useful app, and I love that it has a hold down keyboard shortcut rather than a toggle like MacOS. The transcription is fast and accurate. I would love to see 2 features in future releases: ability to see the typing while I talk, and being able to dictate punctuation. Keep up the good work!!

Risposta dello sviluppatore

20 mag 2026

Hey, Alison 👋. Thank you ☺️! I really hope that soon AI will be so good at placing commas that we won't even have to ask it explicitly. Showing the text live as you talk is an interesting idea. I need to think it through. The catch is that the text I could show mid-dictation is rougher than the final result, and I don't want that to feel more distracting than helpful.

Tried Wisper, Dictato, etc. JoyType has been the most reliable and accurate that I’ve used.

Honestly great, considering it runs entirely on local. I suggest combining it with “Pinchbar”, another app included in Setapp, in order to polish up your dictation. For sure a huge step up from the built-in Mac dictation experience! Looking forward to see this get even better with time.
