Voice Library vs live dictation

Hub Voice is a synced library of saved clips — not the live dictation HUD that pastes into other apps.

Before you start

  • Signed in on Hub (or a desktop/mobile client that syncs Voice notes).

Steps

  1. 1

    Open Hub → Voice (or Voice Library on clients). You see saved recordings with transcripts, duration, and sync state.

  2. 2

    Play, rename, merge, or delete clips here. Changes sync to other devices when online.

  3. 3

    Live dictation (paste into Slack, Cursor, Word…) runs on Mac/Windows with the hold-to-talk hotkey and HUD — that path does not start from this Hub player.

  4. 4

    Quick voice notes from the desktop hotkey land in Notes Inbox and/or Voice Library depending on client settings — check Settings → Shortcuts / Voice.

  5. 5

    For first-time install of desktop apps, use Hub → Download; Voice Library alone does not install the dictation engine.

Common mistakes

  • If you expected text to appear in another app, use the desktop dictation hotkey — Hub Voice only replays saved clips.
  • Insights → Voice Profile is about writing style after many words — unrelated to this clip library.
  • Empty library: record a voice note on a client, or import if your build supports it, then refresh Hub.
