Voxley Help.

The shortcut doesn’t start dictation

Look for the Voxley icon in your menu bar, then click a text field in the app you want to use. Hold Control–Shift–Space while speaking and release to paste. For hands-free dictation, tap once to start and again to stop.

If it still doesn’t work, choose Voxley Onboarding → Keyboard shortcut → Record Shortcut and pick a combination another app isn’t using.

Voxley can’t hear me

Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone and allow Voxley. In System Settings → Sound → Input, select your microphone and check that the input meter moves when you speak.

The first dictation in a new language can take longer while macOS installs its speech model.

My words don’t paste

From the menu bar, open Voxley Onboarding → Permissions. Under Automatic paste, choose Open System Settings and enable Voxley. Return to Voxley and choose Check Permissions Again.

Keep the original text field focused until dictation finishes. Use Practice dictation → Test Paste to check paste on its own.

Text cleanup is unavailable

In System Settings → Apple Intelligence & Siri, turn on Apple Intelligence and let its models finish downloading. In Voxley Settings → Modes, choose Clean up to try it. Verbatim keeps dictation available without cleanup.
