Now all I need is a good Voice-To-Text application, as good as the discontinued Dragon software.
I called them and the only way to run Dragon is on a VM, which I really don't want to do.
Any ideas greatly appreciated.
I haven¡¯t heard of anyone using Dragon on an Apple Silicon Mac successfully via Parallels. So that seems to be a non-starter to me.
I already gave you a list of what is currently available for the Macintosh. All of the products on the list are being used by (at least some) folks in my user group with great success. You just have to choose one. Since there is a free version of MacWisper, I suggest that you try that first.

However, in the end, no matter how many times you ask for ¡°suggestions¡±, there are no more products to recommend. You will have to settle on a product that exists and make it work for you. That might mean that you don¡¯t get every feature that you want. There is no cure for that. But at least you CAN dictate to your Mac.
