Chitchat support

Choose Dictations and press Record, then press Stop recording when finished. On Mac, your chosen recording shortcut also starts and stops dictation. Wait for Ready to paste, then paste into the app you want. Chitchat copies only after successful cleanup and checks that you have not copied something else meanwhile. A changed clipboard, incomplete audio or processing error leaves the text for you to review and copy explicitly.

On iPhone, return to Chitchat if cleanup finishes while the app is inactive. The Record with Chitchat shortcut can be assigned to an Action button; this build opens the app and may require unlocking.

No. Choose Meetings and start recording yourself. Mac meeting recordings attempt to capture your microphone and application or system audio, subject to macOS permissions. System audio can include other apps. iPhone and iPad record the microphone only; Chitchat does not capture another app's call audio on those devices. Make sure participants know you are recording.

Speech recognition already adds some punctuation. Cleanup may leave clear wording unchanged. Chitchat labels that result rather than inventing edits. If cleanup cannot finish, the original stays saved and the entry explains the problem.

Check microphone and speech permissions. Speech models may need an initial internet download and must support your current language. Cleanup requires an Apple Intelligence-capable device, Apple Intelligence enabled and its on-device model ready. Open the recording to see the issue and retry when available. Review generated text before relying on it.

Use the same Apple Account on your devices and enable iCloud library in Chitchat Settings. Keep the apps open and connected while the first sync finishes. Text can arrive before a long recording's audio; open that entry and choose Download to fetch its retained audio. Sync now and Sync details help check a failed attempt. Switching iCloud library off stops future sync; it does not delete existing iCloud copies.

Open the recording's issue details to see which source was affected. Audio saved before an interruption remains available. Retrying transcription can recover text from that saved audio but cannot restore audio that was never captured. A historical warning stays with its recording, including when it syncs to another device.

Not in the current development build. Delete removes the entry from normal browsing and syncs that deletion, but hidden text records and retained local and iCloud audio remain for recovery and conflict handling. There is no in-app permanent-erasure control yet. See the privacy policy before using this build for sensitive recordings.

Email bilellaworks@gmail.com with your device model, system version, Chitchat version, Dictations or Meetings mode and what happened. You can copy an entry's diagnostic details if useful. Please review anything you send and leave out private recordings, transcripts and other people's information. If you are testing through TestFlight, you can also use its feedback control.
