§ Troubleshooting
Text copied but not pasted
Three causes, ranked: Accessibility permission missing, the target field is secure (password), or the app refuses synthetic keystrokes. Dettivo falls back to clipboard in cases two and three — the transcript is on your pasteboard.
Who this is for
Anyone whose dictation runs cleanly (mic level, no error) but the focused app does not receive text.
Fix path
- 01
Check Accessibility
Settings › Permissions → Accessibility row. If not granted, Open Settings and add Dettivo.
Settings › Permissions
- 02
Check the field type
Is it a password field? Dettivo refuses insertion. The transcript is dropped (not stored on clipboard) for security.
- 03
Try clipboard fallback
If clipboard fallback ran, the transcript is on your pasteboard. Paste manually.
- 04
Try Insert from Quick Access
Open Quick Access, pick the transcript, press Return. Insertion is retried with the freshly-focused app.
