Sign in and sign out

Applies to: Windows, macOS, Linux

To dictate, your device must be signed in to Stenowise. You sign in through your browser.

Sign in

  1. Click Sign in in Stenowise. The button appears during setup and in the “Sign-in required” window.
  2. In the browser, sign in with your email address and password, or choose Continue with Google.
  3. Close the browser window when it shows “Signed in”.

While the sign-in runs, Stenowise shows “Waiting for the browser …”. Click Cancel to stop it. Afterwards, Settings › Account shows “Signed in on this device”.

Create an account

  1. Click Create account in Stenowise.
  2. In the browser, enter your email address and a password with at least 10 characters.
  3. Click Create account.
  4. Open the confirmation link in the email. It is valid for 24 hours.

With a new account you dictate without a word limit for the first 30 days. See What applies during the free month?

Sign out

  1. Open Settings › Account.
  2. Under Stenowise account, click Sign out.

Your history and dictionary stay on the device after you sign out. If the server does not confirm the sign-out, Stenowise shows “The server did not confirm the sign-out. You are still signed in. Try again.”

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a connection to dictate?

An existing sign-in keeps working without a connection. “Sign-in required” only appears when no account is signed in on the device or when the server rejects the sign-in, for example after you sign out or change your password. See “Sign-in required” appears.

What do I do if I forgot my password?

On the sign-in page, click Forgot your password? and enter your email address. The reset link is valid for 30 minutes.
