Hi everyone! I'm Yun. I build small Mac apps on my own as NarNar Labs, and today I launched two of them here.
Both started as fixes for my own annoyances. ShotJar keeps recent screenshots on a shelf in the menu bar, because I kept missing the corner thumbnail and then hunting through Finder. Univocal handles dictation when you mix languages mid-sentence, because I switch between Korean and English all day and nothing I tried kept up. It also reads text aloud with word highlighting, on the Mac.
I'm Yun, and I launched Univocal today. I switch between Korean and English constantly, often inside one sentence, and every dictation tool I tried made me pick one language first. The moment I switched, it wrote nonsense.
I'm curious whether this is common. If you're bilingual, do you dictate at all, or did you give up? Which language pairs break worst for you? And do you use read-aloud to proofread your own writing, or only for long articles?
I'm Yun, and I launched ShotJar today. I built it because of one small annoyance: I'd take a screenshot, miss the thumbnail in the corner, and then go digging through Desktop or Finder to drag it into Slack.
Before I built anything I asked a few people how they handle this, and the answers were all over the place: a Desktop full of files, a dedicated folder they clean out monthly, copying to the clipboard only and never saving, or a capture tool with its own history.
