Get the beta.
It's early days, which is the fun part. The beta is fully unlocked and completely free. There will be rough edges. Tell us where they are and version 1 Premium is on us.
Two permissions, both local
Wysp asks for the same access any text tool needs. Both keep everything on your Mac. Here's exactly what's read and what's never touched.
- step 1
Drag Wysp to Applications
Open the download and drop Wysp into your Applications folder. The normal Mac install.
- step 2
Allow Accessibility
This is how Wysp reads the text at your cursor. System Settings, then Privacy & Security, then Accessibility, then switch on Wysp.
- step 3
Allow Input Monitoring
This is how Tab and the arrow keys reach Wysp. Same place: Privacy & Security, then Input Monitoring.
- step 4
Start typing
Open Notes, write a sentence, and watch the grey suggestion appear. Press Tab to take it. The menu-bar icon has settings when you want them.
Where it works, and where it doesn't yet
We'd rather tell you up front than have you find out. Wysp is in beta and this list is honest.
Works well today
- Native Mac apps: Mail, Messages, Notes, TextEdit, Slack, and most others.
- Typing inside Safari and Chrome, including web editors.
- Reading the page you're browsing to ground suggestions.
Rough edges right now
- Arc and Dia hide the text in web pages from Mac apps by default. To type inside web pages there, launch the browser once with web accessibility on. We'll guide you in the app.
- Firefox doesn't expose web-page text to Mac apps, so in-page suggestions there aren't possible yet.
- Search boxes that have their own autocomplete (like Google) are left alone on purpose.
- Code editors and terminals are skipped, so Wysp doesn't fight their own completion.
This is a real limitation of how browsers share text with Mac apps, not specific to Wysp. We're chipping away at it.
