Multi-language support
Dictate in many languages, run the app's UI in a few.
Amical handles two language settings independently: the language Amical transcribes, and the language the app interface is in.
Dictation language
Settings → Dictation → Auto detect language is on by default. Each recording, Amical figures out the language from the audio.
If you only ever dictate in one language and want to skip detection, turn auto-detect off. The Languages picker below the toggle lights up — choose your language there. The list is the full set the speech model supports.
App interface language
Settings → Preferences → Language sets the language for menus, settings labels, dialogs, and toasts. Options today:
- System — follow your OS locale
- English
- Español
- 日本語
- 繁體中文
Changing this prompts you to restart Amical so the new strings load. You can do it now or wait until next launch.
Notes
- The two settings are independent. You can run the UI in English and dictate in Spanish, or any other combination.
- New languages are added with the app — file a request on Discord if yours is missing from either list.
