Share Extension

Send media to Voiscribd from apps that expose the macOS Share menu, then transcribe in Transcribe File.

Share Extension

What It Is

Voiscribd's Share Extension lets you send audio or video into Voiscribd from other apps using the macOS Share menu. It is designed for cross-app handoff without manual file browsing.

When to Use It

Use this when:

  • your file is currently open in another app
  • the app exposes the macOS Share menu
  • you want to hand off content to Voiscribd in-place

How It Works

  1. In a compatible app, open the Share menu.
  2. Select Voiscribd from share targets.
  3. The file is passed into Voiscribd.
  4. Voiscribd opens Transcribe File with that media.
  5. Configure model/language/Spark options and transcribe.

Typical Sources

Common examples include media players, file viewers, and productivity apps that support system Share actions for local media files.

Why It Helps

  • avoids exporting/re-locating files just to transcribe
  • reduces context switching between apps
  • keeps post-processing flow aligned with original source app

Requirements

  • the source app must support macOS Share actions for the media
  • the selected media must be in a format Transcribe File can import

Troubleshooting

Voiscribd is missing from Share menu

  • relaunch the source app and Voiscribd
  • check whether the app supports sharing that file type
  • verify Voiscribd is installed and accessible to system share targets

Shared file arrives but fails to process

  • confirm the media opens in Transcribe File directly
  • test with another known-supported file from same app
  • retry using Open With -> Voiscribd as fallback
