Support & Help

Check the following:

• Make sure Mundwerk has microphone access: System Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone
• Check that the right microphone is selected (menu bar → Mundwerk → Settings)
• Hold the key long enough — recognition starts after a short press

Code-switching learns over time. Fix any mis-recognised terms in the correction window — Mundwerk will remember your correction and recognise the term better next time.

Mundwerk needs “Screen Recording” permission to render the overlay. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Screen Recording and enable Mundwerk.

Mundwerk needs “Accessibility” permission. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility and enable Mundwerk.

Yes. Open Mundwerk Settings via the menu bar icon and choose another key or key combination under “Hotkey”.

Yes. In Settings → Hotkey, under “Aufnahme-Modus” (recording mode), switch from “Halten” (hold) to “Umschalten” (toggle). A short press on the hotkey then starts recording and another press stops it — ideal for longer dictation where you want your hands free. (The app interface is currently German only.)

In Toggle mode (“Umschalten”), Mundwerk structures long dictation automatically: a short pause inserts a space, a long pause starts a new paragraph. Set the pause length and paragraph style (blank line or line break) in Settings → Hotkey → “Absätze beim Diktieren” (paragraphs while dictating). This feature is only active in Toggle mode.

Drag Mundwerk from your Applications folder to the Trash. All local data (vocabulary, settings) is stored under ~/Library/Application Support/Mundwerk and can be deleted manually.
