The app in a video
Speak instead of typing, in any app.
TypeWhisper records in the app, through its own keyboard, through the dictation bubble next to the keyboard you already use, or as a quick dictation. With an on-device engine the recording stays on the device.

More than a feature list
The complete Android guide.
Start with installation and setup, or jump straight to the workflow you want to set up or fix.
- Installation and first setupRequirements, installing from Google Play and every step of the guided setup on Android: language, speech recognition, access, keyboard and bubble.
- Dictation and the TypeWhisper keyboardRecord on the Record tab, turn on the TypeWhisper keyboard, dictate into any app, send by voice, rewrite selected text and keep private fields out of history.
- Dictate into other apps with the bubbleKeep your usual keyboard and dictate into other apps with the optional bubble: what it accesses, how to turn it on, its settings and app or website profiles.
- Speech engines and modelsChoose an on-device or cloud speech engine on Android, download and remove models, and set silence, model memory, fallback and translation options.
- Profiles and AI writingTurn Android dictations into messages, emails, notes or calendar drafts, assign profiles to apps and websites, and connect your own AI writing service.
- Quick dictation and InboxDictate without opening TypeWhisper: use the quick settings tile, the home screen widget, an app shortcut or the assist gesture, then check the Inbox.
- Files, History and your dataTranscribe audio and video files, watch folders for new recordings, search and play back History, recover failed dictations and back up your data.
- Dictionary and snippetsTeach TypeWhisper names and jargon, fix words it mishears, sync with Android's personal dictionary, and expand short spoken triggers into text.
- Privacy, cloud providers, and PremiumWhat stays on your phone, what cloud providers receive, how private fields and the bubble are handled, and which features need Premium on Android.
- Troubleshooting on AndroidFix a silent microphone, stuck model downloads, a missing keyboard or dictation bubble, cloud key errors and background limits in TypeWhisper for Android.
