    The main dashboard shows three panels:

    Recording Timeline

    Every dictation appears in a chronological list with timestamps, duration, and the first few lines of text. Scroll through your day's recordings at a glance.

    Detail Panel

    Click any recording to see the full transcription, play back the audio, and view stats like words per minute, word count, and detected language.

    Search & Filter

    Find any past dictation instantly with full-text search. Use the ⌘K shortcut to jump to search from anywhere in the app.

    Pin & Flag

    Pin important transcriptions to keep them at the top. Flag recordings you want to revisit, review, or share.

    Why History Matters#

    Most dictation apps are fire-and-forget — you speak, text appears, the audio is gone. Whisperer keeps everything because:

    • You can re-listen — if a transcription seems off, play back the audio and verify
    • You can search — "what was that API endpoint I dictated yesterday?" — find it instantly
    • You can track productivity — see how many words you dictated, your average speed, and trends over time
    • You can recover — accidentally deleted your pasted text? The transcription is still in history
    Tip

    All audio stays 100% on your Mac. Whisperer never uploads recordings to the cloud. Your transcription history is entirely local and private.

    The Statistics dashboard shows:

    • Words transcribed — total word count across all sessions
    • Audio recorded — cumulative recording time
    • Total sessions — how many times you've used dictation
    • Average speed — your typical speaking pace in words per minute
    • Time saved — estimated time saved vs. typing at 40 WPM
    • Usage by app — which applications you dictate in most
    • Daily activity — bar chart showing your dictation patterns through the week
    Info

    The "Time Saved" metric compares your dictation speed against an average typing speed of 40 WPM. If you dictate at 130 WPM, that's 3x faster — and the time savings compound over weeks and months.

    Searching Your History#

    Use the search bar at the top of the Transcriptions view to find any past dictation. Search works across:

    • Full transcription text
    • Date and time
    • Language

    The search is local and instant — no network requests, no cloud indexing. Just fast full-text search across your entire history.

    Export & Copy#

    Click any transcription to select it, then copy the text to your clipboard. You can also flag transcriptions for batch review later.

    For developers, the history is especially useful when you've dictated code snippets or terminal commands that you want to reuse. Search for "deploy" or "kubectl" and find every command you've ever dictated.
