Voice input for quick capture

Speak your notes without holding any buttons.

Works on:
macOS

The short answer: open Apple Notes, click into any note, press ⌃+⌥+R, speak for 30-60 seconds, and AICHE transcribes and inserts the text without requiring you to hold down the Fn key.

Apple's built-in dictation requires holding Fn twice or keeping a microphone button pressed, and stops after 30 seconds of silence even if you're still thinking.

  1. Open Apple Notes and select your note.
  2. Click where you want to add text.
  3. Press ⌃+⌥+R to start recording.
  4. Speak your thoughts naturally for as long as needed.
  5. Press ⌃+⌥+R again-AICHE transcribes and inserts the formatted text.
  6. Continue adding content or create a new note.

Heads-up: AICHE works alongside Apple Notes' folders and tags. Dictate your content first, then organize using Notes' native features.

The pro-tip: enable Message Ready in settings before dictating quick thoughts. Your casual speech gets formatted into clear, readable paragraphs automatically.

Result: a 300-word note that takes 6 minutes to type becomes 75 seconds of dictation, and you never need to remember keyboard combinations or hold buttons down.

Do this now: open Apple Notes, create a new note, press ⌃+⌥+R, and dictate your to-do list for tomorrow.
