# Working with Transcripts

Playback and manage your recordings.

Silkwave Voice automatically transcribes your audio in near-realtime using Apple's on-device speech-to-text models - entirely local and private.

### Viewing Transcripts

The transcript appears automatically. You can scroll through and review the full text. Each transcript segment is timestamped and linked to the corresponding audio position.

### Playback & Navigation

- **Audio Player**: Use the controls to play, pause, or scrub through the audio.
- **Auto-Scroll**: Enable the auto-scroll feature to have the transcript automatically follow the current spoken sentence during playback. This makes it easy to follow along with the recording.
- **Jump to Position**: Click on any transcript segment to jump directly to that point in the audio.

### Copying Transcripts

- **Copy All**: Click the **Copy** button to copy the entire transcript to your clipboard for use in other apps.
- **Copy Individual Segments**: You can also copy individual transcript segments by clicking the copy button below the specific text.

### Managing Recordings

From the sidebar, you can:

- **View Recording History**: See all your past recordings sorted by date.
- **Rename Recordings**: Give your recordings meaningful names for easy identification.
- **Delete Recordings**: Remove recordings you no longer need to free up space.

All transcription is performed locally on your device using Apple's speech-to-text models. Your audio data never leaves your computer.
