Settings: Lexicon and Snippets

Word Corrections

Word Corrections let you replace common transcription misses automatically.

Each entry includes:

• misheard term
• preferred replacement
• scope (global or app-specific bundle ID)

Example:

• stenoh -> Steno
• steno kit -> StenoKit

Entries with the same term and scope are updated in place.

Text Shortcuts

Text Shortcuts (snippets) expand short triggers into longer phrases.

Each snippet includes:

• trigger
• expansion
• scope (global or app-specific)

Example:

• trigger: brb
• expansion: I'll be right back

Snippet application occurs during transcript processing before cleanup and insertion.

Scope Rules

Scope resolution order follows context:

• app-scoped entries apply when target app bundle ID matches
• global entries apply across all apps

Use app scope for terms that are only valid in a specific toolchain.

Examples

Suggested setups:

• IDE scope:
  • gpt five -> GPT-5
  • swift ui -> SwiftUI
• global scope:
  • comma shortcut patterns for repeated signatures
  • personal names and project names
