uho Dictation adds a simple voice layer to your Mac. Press Fn, speak naturally, and keep working. Your words appear wherever you’re already working. No extra windows, no workflow changes, and no cloud transcription.
I use it whenever I can: searching Google, talking to AI tools, writing notes, emails, documents, ideas, and pretty much anywhere there's a text field on my Mac.
The problem was that dictation never felt consistent.
Some apps had decent voice input. Others didn't. Every tool had different shortcuts, different speeds, different interfaces, different animations, and a different way to interact with it.
I found myself constantly switching between workflows depending on where I was typing.
That constantly broke my flow.
What I really wanted was one dictation experience that worked the same way everywhere.
So I built uho Dictation.
The idea was simple:
⌨️ Press Fn.
🎙️ Speak.
✅ Press Fn again.
Your words appear exactly where you're already working.
• No extra windows
• No switching apps
• No changing your workflow
🔒 uho runs entirely on your Mac using local Whisper models, so your voice never leaves your device.
What surprised me most is how many new use cases I keep finding for it.
Sometimes I dictate directly into an app.
Sometimes I replace selected text with speech.
Sometimes I forget to place the cursor where I need it, but the transcription is already waiting in the clipboard, ready to paste anywhere.
I wasn't trying to build perfect transcription.
I was trying to make dictation feel like a natural part of using a computer.
Something that upgrades your Mac with a fast, reliable, predictable voice layer that works everywhere.
🚀 Today I'm launching the first public version.
• Works in any Mac app
• Offline transcription with local Whisper
• Press Fn to start and stop
• Built for Apple Silicon

❤️ I'd love your feedback.
If you spend your day writing, coding, researching, studying, or talking to AI, what would make dictation feel truly invisible in your workfl
It’s really useful tool for avoiding the typing. If I want to text someone and don’t want to type, I use this app uho.Dictation.
If I want to make some notes but I struggle with typing, I use this app 😊
Easy. It makes communication simpler.

Hi there,
I just had to reach out and say thank you. I’ve been struggling with native dictation for so long, and your app is exactly what I needed.
I love it and want to buy it very soon. I was just wondering, do you have a rent-to-own subscription option, or plans to add one?
Keep up the awesome work!
