How to Uninstall Cotypist

Removing Cotypist from your Mac is straightforward:

  1. Open Cotypist’s menu bar icon and choose Quit Cotypist.
  2. Drag the Cotypist.app bundle to the Trash. (Cotypist usually lives in /Applications.)
  3. If you also want to erase Cotypist’s settings, local data, and downloaded models, delete ~/Library/Application Support/app.cotypist.Cotypist. You can reach it from Finder’s Go › Go to Folder… menu. Cotypist’s AI models live inside that folder, in the Models subdirectory — removing the whole folder reclaims that disk space.

Re-enable macOS text predictions

If you accepted Cotypist’s offer during setup to turn off macOS’s built-in inline predictions (so the two wouldn’t fight over the same suggestion space), you can switch the system feature back on after uninstalling:

  1. Open System Settings › Keyboard.
  2. Next to Text Input, click Edit… under Input Sources.
  3. Turn Show inline predictive text back on, then click Done.
macOS Keyboard settings with the Show inline predictive text toggle highlighted.
