On-device dictation
Press the mic in any app and speak; your phone turns it into text. No server, no round-trip — the recognition runs on the device in your hand.
Honest roadmaps don't hand out delivery dates they can't keep. So this one is staged by certainty: what's shipping in the app today, what we're building next, and what's further out — every opt-in path off by default.
No promised dates on this page. When something's real, it moves up a stage.
These aren't plans — they're what the app on your phone already does, on-device.
Press the mic in any app and speak; your phone turns it into text. No server, no round-trip — the recognition runs on the device in your hand.
Nine more Indian languages have joined Hindi and English, tuned for the way you switch between them mid-sentence — recognised as one flow, not two half-guesses. Which ones your phone can run depends on its RAM; see what yours gets.
By default a mic bubble floats over any app and inserts your text via an accessibility service — you'll see exactly what it reads before you grant it. The keyboard is a real one: a key grid with a word-suggestion strip above it and the mic key beside the space bar — so dictation is one key, not the only thing it does.
An action bar above the keys, running on your phone. A rewrite is offered beside your own line and replaces nothing until you choose it — keeping your words is a first-class answer. Fix, Tone and Rewrite need a small model you download and can't run at all on the lowest device tier; Translate works on every tier. None of it is Pro: the phone decides, see what yours runs.
A one-time model download, then no internet needed. It keeps working on the metro with no signal — offline is the default path, not a fallback.
Punctuation and casing, fixed on-device on every dictation. This automatic pass tidies what you said — it doesn't reword it or invent things you didn't say. Rewording is the action bar's job, and only when you ask for it.
Real intent, honest status: these are planned and not in the current build. Each ships only when it's genuinely good on-device.
Better punctuation and fewer slips in the automatic pass every dictation gets — the one that runs without you asking, not the keyboard's on-demand Fix. Still entirely on your phone, and swappable, so it can improve without changing how you type.
Cleanup that reads the field you're in, so a quick search box and a long email get the right amount of polish — still on-device, still your words.
These are things we're exploring, not commitments. Every one is off by default. If we build them, we'll tell you plainly before anything leaves your device — that rule doesn't change.
betterflo learning your names and phrases, on your phone, to get you right more often. A separate, opt-in program could let you choose to help improve the models — never on silently, never a condition of using the app.
For the moments a phone can't do alone, an opt-in cloud mode for extra quality. It's upside, not a paywall around basic dictation. Pricing isn't set — so there's no number to show you here yet.
Carrying your personal dictionary across your devices, if you choose to. Opt-in, and only what you ask to sync — nothing goes anywhere by default.
On-device stays the default. Anything cloud or shared is opt-in — off unless you turn it on.
Nothing here is scheduled by guesswork. The problems people hit repeatedly are the ones that get built next, and a report is how something gets on the list.
What you said, what came out, and the phone you said it on — sent as you hit them, not saved up.
From the day Pro launches, as a Google Play promo code sent to your inbox.
Everything under "Now" is live in the app — on-device, offline, free to start. That's the honest place to begin.
This page is intent, not a contract. Cards shift, split, or drop as we learn — and we'll never dress a plan up as a shipped feature.
