Browsing history in the dashboard
Open the evoglyph dashboard from the menu bar icon. The History section shows a chronological list of past transcriptions — each entry displays the transcribed text and a timestamp.
See App dashboard for a full overview of the dashboard window.
Where the database lives
The history database is a SQLite file managed by GRDB and stored under:
~/Library/Application Support/evoglyph/All settings, vocabulary, and the history database are persisted in this directory. The database is stored locally on your Mac — no history data is synced anywhere or sent to any server.
The history database does not apply its own encryption. For at-rest encryption, enable
FileVault on your Mac (System Settings › Privacy & Security › FileVault). FileVault encrypts the entire startup disk, including
~/Library/Application Support/evoglyph/.
Deleting entries
To delete individual entries, open the dashboard's History section, select an entry, and use the delete action. To remove all history, you can delete the database file directly:
- Quit evoglyph from the menu bar icon.
-
Open Finder, press Cmd + Shift + G, and go to
~/Library/Application Support/evoglyph/. - Delete the SQLite database file inside that folder.
- Relaunch evoglyph — a fresh, empty database is created on startup.
Deleting the database is permanent. There is no recycle bin or undo for this action.
Privacy note
The history database stores the text of every dictation. It stays on your Mac and is never uploaded. If you share your Mac with others or are dictating sensitive information, consider deleting individual entries after use or clearing the history periodically.
