Dictation and recording controls

Diktator 2.2.2 · Build 79

Text delivery and macOS 27

Diktator 2.2.1 · Build 77

Updated for macOS 27, with more reliable text insertion and a recovery window that keeps your result available.

Diktator checks the inserted text and cursor before replacing text. If delivery cannot be confirmed, it avoids a blind retry and keeps the full result available to copy. Speech models, translation options, and existing licenses are unchanged.
