OptionSpace 1.0.2: More ways to make dictation your own

2026-11-13T12:00:00Z

A new Advanced page in Settings, and a quick way to tell us what you think.

Settings has a new Advanced page. Choose where screenshots and copied text appear in your sentence: where you pressed the shortcut, where you finished selecting, or at the end.
Dictation can finish by itself. Pick 5, 10 or 30 seconds, and when you stay quiet for that long, OptionSpace stops and pastes your text.
Switch on “Remove filler words” and “um”, “uh” and accidentally repeated words are left out of your text.
Send us feedback from Settings → About. Type your message and send it. It is anonymous, so we cannot reply; for questions, write to support@optionspace.app.

After pasting your text, OptionSpace can put back whatever you had copied before, so nothing on your clipboard is lost.
You decide whether the speech model stays in memory, so dictation starts at once, or is released while you are not dictating, which frees about 600 MB.
One button puts all settings back to their defaults. Your history, vocabulary and licence are kept.

“What’s new” and “Privacy” in Settings → About now open this page and the privacy policy. Before, they did nothing.

The small icon next to “Settings” in the menu-bar menu is gone, so the menu looks the way it should.

The first version: dictation for people who write software.

Press ⌥ Space in any app, say what you mean, and your words are pasted where you were typing.
Add screenshots (⌥ S), copied text or images (press ⌘C twice) and file paths (⌥ P) while you talk.
Your speech is turned into text on your Mac. Your audio never leaves it.
Teach OptionSpace the names and terms you use, so it spells them right.
Updates arrive by themselves: OptionSpace tells you when a new version is ready.
