I want to use voice dictation instead of typing for my daily writing. I just learned Superwhisper is now available on Linux.

Superwhisper for Android adds a floating pill that users can drag, dock and tap to start dictating.
What this means for you: On Android, Superwhisper now shows a small floating pill on screen. You can drag it where you want, dock it to an edge, and tap it to start dictating, which means speaking instead of typing.

Superwhisper now has a Japanese interface on Mac, shown automatically when the Mac's display language is set to Japanese.
What this means for you: Superwhisper's menus, buttons and settings now appear in Japanese on the Mac. If your Mac's display language is already Japanese, you don't need to change anything.
How to use it: Nothing to set up if your Mac's display language is Japanese. To switch by hand, open System Settings, then General, then Language & Region. Under Applications, click the plus button, pick Superwhisper, and set its language to Japanese. Quit Superwhisper and open it again for the change to apply.
I use Superwhisper on my Mac and want its interface in Japanese. Walk me through setting Superwhisper's language to Japanese in macOS System Settings, step by step, and tell me what to do if the app still shows English afterward. My Mac's current display language is [language].

Superwhisper on Mac now uses less CPU during meetings, leaving more capacity for other apps.
What this means for you: Superwhisper on Mac now takes up less of your computer's processor (CPU) while it records and takes notes in a meeting. Your other apps, like a video call or a slide deck, have more room to run at the same time.
Why it matters: It follows the launch of Superwhisper Meetings on Oct 15, a recorder and note taker that runs fully on your own device, which is why how much of the Mac it uses matters.
