Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is Voqify really free?

Yes: no subscription, no account and no usage limits.

Is my audio sent anywhere?

No. Audio is transcribed on your computer and immediately discarded: it is never sent or saved.

Voqify only goes online on first launch, to download the model, and to check for updates (which you can turn off).

Do I need a graphics card?

No. Voqify runs on the processor of any PC. A graphics card of any brand speeds up transcription.

With an NVIDIA card with 6 GB or more, you can also choose Canary, the most accurate model.

Which apps does Voqify work in?

Any app you can type in: email, word processors, browsers, AI assistants, code editors…

The one exception is windows running as administrator, which Windows protects. In that case, run Voqify as administrator too.

Do I need to dictate punctuation?

No. Voqify adds commas, periods and capitals, and writes numbers as digits.

Which languages are supported?

25 European languages, including English, French, German, Spanish and Italian. Parakeet Ultra detects the language automatically; with Canary, you choose it.

What language is the app itself in?

English or French: Voqify follows your Windows language, and you can switch in its settings. Dictation works in all 25 languages.

How do I change the shortcut?

Open the settings by clicking the Voqify icon next to the clock, then press the combination you want. Side mouse buttons work too.

Why does Windows say “Windows protected your PC”?

Windows shows this warning for recent programs that aren’t signed yet. Click “More info”, then “Run anyway”.

How much disk space do I need?

About 200 MB for Voqify, plus 0.7 to 1.2 GB for the model, downloaded on first launch (2 to 3 GB for Canary).

Is there a Mac or Linux version?

Not at the moment: Voqify is available for 64-bit Windows 10 and 11.

How do I uninstall Voqify?

From Settings > Apps. The program, its settings and the downloaded models are removed completely.
