Frequently asked
How do I dictate?
Tap the orb (or the record button in Studio) to start, speak naturally, then tap again to stop. The transcript is copied to your clipboard automatically, ready to paste into any app.
Which languages are supported?
You choose between two models, both running on the device. Parakeet v3 detects 25 European languages on its own, so you just speak, even switching languages partway through a sentence. Whisper Large v3 covers around 100 languages; let it detect the language or pick a specific one. Choose your model when you set up, and change it any time in Settings.
Why does it download a few hundred MB the first time?
That is the speech model you chose (roughly 500 to 625 MB). It downloads once, then transcription runs entirely on your headset, with no network needed afterward, and nothing you say is ever uploaded. Switching models later downloads that model once, too.
The model download failed or got stuck.
Make sure you have a stable internet connection with room to spare for the model (up to ~625 MB), then retry from Settings. If it still fails, quit and reopen the app, or delete and reinstall. There are no accounts, so you lose nothing.
The app cannot hear me.
VisionSpeech needs microphone access. Check Settings ▸ Privacy & Security ▸ Microphone on your Apple Vision Pro and confirm VisionSpeech is enabled, then try recording again.
Can it paste directly into other apps?
visionOS does not allow apps to type into other apps, so VisionSpeech copies the transcript to your clipboard and you paste it where you want it, in one gesture.
It keeps misspelling a name or technical term.
Teach it the word. Open Settings ▸ My Words and add the spelling once — names, brands, jargon — and transcripts will snap close matches to it from then on. For phrases that should always come out a specific way (like a spoken email address turning into the real one), add a Text Replacement instead.
How does AI cleanup work, and why don’t I see it?
The sparkles menu on a finished transcript can remove filler words, fix punctuation, or reformat the text as bullet points or email tone. It runs on Apple Intelligence, entirely on the device, and one tap reverts to the original. It requires Apple Intelligence to be available and enabled on your Apple Vision Pro; on devices where it is not, the option hides or explains itself.
Can I start dictation without opening the app?
Yes. Say "Hey Siri, start dictation", or pin the VisionSpeech launcher widget in your space and tap it — the app opens and starts recording immediately. There are also Stop Dictation and Get Latest Transcript actions for Shortcuts, so you can pipe your last transcript into other workflows.
Where are my past transcripts?
Your last 100 transcripts are kept locally on the device. Open the history to revisit, edit, copy, pin, share, or delete them. Pinned transcripts survive the 100-item limit. Clearing history or deleting the app removes them for good.
What do you require?
Apple Vision Pro running visionOS 26 or later. AI cleanup additionally requires Apple Intelligence.
