Frequently asked questions
Does Voicetypr replace my screen reader?
No. It only handles input—getting words into a field. Your screen reader still does navigation and reads everything back, including the text you just dictated. They run side by side.
Can I review and correct what it transcribed?
That is the intended workflow, but it has not been verified across screen readers and apps. Test whether focus remains correct, inserted text is announced, review works, and errors can be fixed independently.
Does it work with VoiceOver, NVDA, and JAWS?
Voicetypr is designed to paste into standard desktop text fields on supported Mac and Windows systems. Named third-party apps are workflow examples, not verified integrations. Secure, elevated, managed, or nonstandard fields can behave differently, so test the exact fields and focus behavior you need.
Is my voice sent to the cloud?
Local transcription keeps the speech-recognition step on the device. Optional cloud speech can send audio, optional formatting can send text, remote or LAN modes add another system, local history can retain text, and the destination app receives the pasted text. Review the privacy guide and keep network features off when local processing is required.
Can I start it without finding a button on screen?
Voicetypr supports configurable global shortcuts and Tap-to-Toggle, but keyboard access and conflicts have not been tested with every screen reader. Verify the trigger and a recovery path in your setup.
