Loqua is a Mac voice typing app that turns speech into context-aware, polished writing — across every app you already use. It captures what you say, cleans it up, understands where it's going, and delivers text that's ready to send.

Yes. Download the macOS app, sign in, and follow the permission prompts on first launch. Takes about two minutes.

Loqua supports macOS 13 (Ventura) and later on both Apple Silicon and Intel Macs.

In most cases, yes. Loqua is designed for system-wide text entry — editors, email, notes, messaging, browsers, and most developer tools. A small number of apps may limit direct cursor insertion depending on how they handle text input.

Accessibility permission lets Loqua insert text directly at your cursor and respond to your shortcut from anywhere on your Mac. Without it, the system-wide experience isn't possible.

To hear you. No microphone access, no dictation.

Core transcription requires an internet connection — the speech and language models run in the cloud for speed and accuracy.

Three things that help most: reduce background noise, speak at a natural pace (not overly slow), and add your technical terms, project names, and frequent contacts to your personal dictionary. Accuracy tends to improve significantly within a few days of regular use.

First confirm Accessibility permission is enabled in System Settings > Privacy & Security > Accessibility. Then try again in the target app. If it persists in a specific app, contact support with the app name — some apps require additional compatibility work.

Open Loqua settings and assign a different activation shortcut. Any key combo that's free in your current setup will work.
