Turn Dictator on in Safari
- Open the Dictator app once after installing it.
- In Safari, choose Settings, then Extensions, and tick Dictator.
- Allow it on YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video and Apple TV: choose Edit Websites and set them to Allow, or click the Dictator button in the toolbar on each site and choose Always Allow on This Website.
Start a dictation
Open a video, turn on French subtitles in the player, then press ⌥⇧D or click the Dictator button. Enter plays the sentence again, ⌘↩ goes to the next one and ⇧↩ to the previous one.
When nothing happens
- Check that the title has French subtitles and that they are turned on.
- If the Dictator button shows an exclamation mark, Safari has blocked it on that site: allow the site as described above, then reload the page.
- After updating Dictator, reload pages that were already open.
- Still stuck? The panel has a “Copier le diagnostic” button. Paste what it copies into an email to [email protected]. It contains no subtitle text and nothing personal.
