Dictator Offline Voice to Text

A big update. Dictator now runs on iPad and iPhone Duo, in any orientation, including split view and Slide Over. On a wide screen, History sits beside Dictate and the Journal’s calendar sits beside the day you’re reading. New Journal tab: dictate into today’s entry or write by hand, add photos, browse earlier days on a calendar, and search everything you’ve written. The keyboard can now dictate without leaving the app you’re in. After your first dictation, Dictator keeps the mic ready for a while (15 minutes by default), with the microphone indicator and a Live Activity showing the whole time. Dictating carries on when you switch apps or lock your phone, with a Live Activity and a Stop button on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. A slimmer keyboard that leaves more of the screen to your app, and that fits dictated text to what’s already in the field. Assist works on highlighted text in the keyboard, with no need to copy it first. One record button on every tab: tap or hold to talk, then tap to send or cancel. Anything that’s transcribing or rewording can be cancelled with a tap. Apple Intelligence tidying and Assist refuse ordinary dictation far less often. A new app icon built for Liquid Glass, with light, dark, tinted and clear versions.
