Uvinta is installed

The app is running: its icon is in the menu bar at the top right of the screen. On first launch a welcome window asks how you want to use Uvinta — on this Mac only, online, or both — and offers to download the models you need.

To start

• Accessibility. Allow it when macOS asks (System Settings → Privacy & Security → Accessibility): quick translation and the typing assistant need it. Settings → macOS permissions shows what is allowed.
• A model. In Settings → Models download a local model, or use the online model that comes with an Uvinta Cloud subscription.
• Voice. Whisper (speech recognition for voice input and the interpreter) and Supertonic 3 (the voice that speaks translations) are downloaded in Settings → Models → Local LLM; the tabs that need them say so while they are missing. macOS asks for the microphone and the system sound on first use.

Shortcuts

• ⌃⌘C — the “Quick translation” window with the selected text translated;
• ⌥Space — voice input; ⌃⌥⌘I — the simultaneous interpreter;
• ⌘G — check the text in the current field. All shortcuts can be changed in Settings.
