Updates and release notes

DictateLocal updates itself automatically. Here is how, and what each version contains.

Automatic updates

DictateLocal updates itself. At launch, the app checks for a new version; when one is available, it offers it, downloads it and replaces itself in one click. You can also check at any time from the menu bar icon, Check for updates…

Every update is signed: the app refuses any version we did not publish. The check sends no personal data, only the installed version and the macOS version.

Updates are included with the lifetime license and for the whole duration of a subscription.
