Add the name to your KeyVox personal dictionary. Supported entries can sync between Mac and iPhone through your Apple iCloud account. You do not need to create another account, and iCloud synchronization is separate from speech transcription.

How syncing works

Use the same Apple iCloud account on your Mac and iPhone with iCloud available to KeyVox. Supported entries can then stay in step across devices.

English dictionary support

The KeyVox personal dictionary is for supported English words, names, acronyms, and terms. KeyVox applies saved entries during final cleanup, and the app does not define an entry or character capacity limit.

If syncing is off

Dictionary entries can remain local to the device where you added them. Normal dictation still works with the files installed on that device.
