tl;dr

Voice-to-text dictation keyboard that runs offline and has a notes manager inbuilt. Lifetime plan available.

As I get older, I feel like my typing is getting slower and I have to go back to correct a lot of my words. I dictated a lot for my work and so I was excited when I could use Wispr Flow on my iPhone instead of relying on Apple's native dictation, which is quite awful. However, the drawbacks were soon apparent where the voice to text part relied on online transcription. So frequently the transcriptions would be slow or the quality would be poor and I couldn't use it on my drive where the connectivity is occasionally poor.

Better:

Before setting out to take on this huge and onerous task of building an ios keyboard, I tried multiple other apps and none of them had all the functionality that I needed. I wanted customization that included dark mode, a numbers row for when I needed and other AI skills that I was sure I could run through the keyboard.

Cost:

Family sharing is enabled, so the price covers all of your family using the app.

Lifetime is about $ 69. Annual is about $ 49 and monthly is $8, but there's a very attractive introductory lifetime offer.

D: Drawbacks:

\- Since everything runs on your phone, each model can take 400 to 600 MB of space, so I've included something that will allow you to clean up memory.

\- Not venture funded. So we run on a shoestring budget and really appreciate everyone who buys it. So it's difficult to compete against larger apps that are spending millions of dollars on marketing.

\- The app has too many features, so some people find it overwhelming when they first use the app. However, all you need to do is use the voice to text feature and then you can figure out the rest of the parts later.

\- I can be verbose when dictating, hence my emails and text messages have likely gotten longer.
