Is Dictation Private?

[HighTime]

Hello folks,

I wanted to start using dictation but am not sure whether it is private or not? Will what I dictate get sent to outside servers?

Thank you.

In word Yes!

In word Yes!

Thanks, so it differs from program to program and is not system wide?

According to Apple: "All audio processing for Voice Control happens on your device, so your personal data is always kept private." https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210539

I wanted to point out, Voice Control Dictation is on devices.

Old Dictation is still online. ( And generally much better )
