Already available in Diktator 2.2

Choose the translation language

Translate speech from the broad supported source-language catalog into a selected target language. Availability and quality depend on the language pair, model, and translation method. Local-model translation is experimental; review important results.

Two translation paths

Diktator's own model and the Apple Translation API used by this app both translate on your device. Apple uses separately downloaded language models. Apple may collect API usage and performance data, including Diktator's app identifier and the language pair, without the original or translated text.

More dictation languages

The dictation picker now exposes the complete model language catalog instead of limiting choices to the 13 prepared interface languages.

Arabic and Turkish

Arabic and Turkish now have prepared interface localization and dedicated post-processing profiles, bringing the prepared language set to 13.

Improved Chinese and Japanese

Language-specific plausibility checks and post-processing improve Chinese and Japanese output while protecting legitimate mixed-script text.

Mixed-language segmentation

Short segments can detect language independently, with language-specific cleanup and less context leakage from one script into the next.

Local-first privacy

Your dictation stays on your Mac.
