Works without internet

Sign in once. Then dictate without internet.

On a plane, in a tunnel, with the Wi-Fi off. First launch needs internet to sign in with Apple, Google or WhatsApp; after that, nothing does.

What keeps working with no connection.

Speech recognition and the Clean style run on the Mac, so the core of OnVoice never waits for a network.

  • Dictation in most apps. Hold a key, speak, let go, with Exact and Clean.
  • Your dictionary and snippets. Spelled your way, typed word for word.
  • Diary Beta and encrypted history. Diary logs what you dictate and pulls out to-dos automatically, saved only on your Mac.
  • No cloud AI. Which blocks every network call in the pipeline anyway.
  • Smart styles. Polish, Concise, Expand and Custom run on Built-in AI or the Smart Clean model.

When it does use the internet.

  • Signing in, once. With Apple, Google or WhatsApp. There is no email sign-up.
  • Checking your account, now and then. Only when the Mac is already online. Only your account is sent.
  • Away from Wi-Fi. After one sign-in, it keeps working without a connection.
  • The first speech model, on older macOS. On macOS 26 OnVoice works without internet right away. On earlier Macs, the first launch downloads a one-time speech model. After that it works without internet too.

Max out your productivity. Get supercharged.
