Transcripts

Search saved dictations, copy text, switch between original and polished text, and manage recordings.

Verified July 3, 2026 · Applies to mrmr 0.45.0 and later

When Privacy → Save transcripts is enabled, completed dictations appear on the Transcripts page and are stored locally on your Mac.

Use transcript history

Open Transcripts from the sidebar. You can:

  • Search saved text.
  • Copy a transcript to the clipboard.
  • Delete one transcript.
  • Download its retained audio as a .webm file when audio is available.
  • Undo or redo the AI edit when both original and polished text were retained.

Hover over a transcript to reveal its actions.

Original and polished text

If polishing changed a transcript, Undo AI edit switches the displayed text back to the original transcription. Redo AI edit restores the polished version. This does not re-run the polishing model.

Local audio storage

When transcript saving is enabled, mrmr can retain the corresponding recording locally with the transcript. Open Privacy → Save transcripts → Open folder to view the recordings folder in Finder.

Deleting an individual transcript also deletes its associated audio file. Clearing transcripts removes the complete local history and recordings directory.

Disable transcript saving

Open Privacy and turn off Save transcripts. Confirming this action permanently deletes existing saved transcripts and associated local recordings. New dictations are still processed and inserted, but they are not added to transcript history.

The Transcripts sidebar item is hidden while saving is disabled.
