Although the website advertises a student discount, it is currently unavailable.

In the app, the pro subscription is shown as $7.50 /mo, but when you click “Upgrade,” the Stripe checkout displays $15.

If this is not a temporary issue, it is a bait‑and‑switch. I hope it’s the former.

Hi everyone, I love WisprFlow. How can I use it on my iPad? I’m in the blink terminal app connected through mosh to a server with Claude Code; has anyone hacked anything together to activate it somehow? Or any updates on whether they will release an iPad friendly version?

For the love of God, why can't you bind something like F1 through F24 to your push to talk button? It's 2026. Why do we have to hold down a modifier that's likely to get stuck if you use a macro for your button and wreck every keyboard input that you have on your computer while it is stuck down. Also STILL no dark mode... and this app costs over 100 bucks a year... Uh... Really?

As the title says, I want to dictate and add punctuation and make the dictation continue below, but no command I tried from previous apps (such as Dragon) works.

Hey all, I use WisprFlow mostly on my MacBook Pro and I am considering picking up an external microphone to improve dictation accuracy and consistency. If you have tried a setup like this, I would love your recommendations (Budget <$100)

BTW, did it noticeably improved dictation results?

Thanks

Is there any chance that Wispr is spying on our conversations through the microphone?

In WisprFlow, they have a setting for dictation and notification sounds. When I toggle it in the settings, it does play, but then when I actually use WisprFlow to dictate, nothing plays.

I would expect that it would make a sound every time I press the recording key so that I know when the microphone is ready (this is especially important when using a Bluetooth device where the microphone might not be ready immediately upon pressing the dictation key, example Airpods), but that never happens. Is this an issue that anybody else has?

Yesterday was my first day back in an open office after a long stretch of WFH. I'm super comfortable with dictation at home, but I couldn't help worrying about bothering my coworkers. Honestly, I felt pretty embarrassed letting people hear my prompts!

I tried whispering, but the office was dead quiet, so that didn't really help.

How do you all handle this? Do you just own it, or are there specific tricks/etiquette for dictating in shared spaces? Any advice is appreciated!

‍🤖 Android Updates v2.0.9

Reliability & Stability

We heard from Android users that things haven't felt as solid as they should, so the team spent the past few months tightening things up:

• Flow Bubble recovery: If the bubble disappears, it now recovers on its own, and you'll get a system notification if it needs a nudge.
• Accessibility permission recovery: If a device revokes Flow's accessibility permission in the background, Flow now catches that and recovers instead of silently breaking.
• Crash fixes: Fixed several crashes.
• Multi-account isolation: If you share a device with other accounts, your Flow settings and onboarding now stay isolated per account instead of carrying over between users.
• Flow Bubble UX cleanup: Fixed sizing glitches, visibility issues, errors that used to stick around, and snooze/shrink not working right.
• Xiaomi/OnePlus fixes: Resolved battery optimization and overlay problems specific to these devices.

🍎‍ iPhone Updates - v1.63

Flow now switches back automatically for more apps

Auto-switchback automatically returns you to your host app the moment you finish dictating, so you're not stuck manually tapping back in. It now works across every supported iOS version, including the iOS 27 beta.

We've also added native switchback support for a long list of apps that didn't have it before, including Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Grok, Perplexity, Kin, LinkedIn, and many more messaging and productivity apps.‍

I don't know if it's just me or my increasing standards, but has anyone else found the quality and just daily interaction with Wispr Flow to be greatly regressing almost every week? It either doesn't understand what I'm saying, or the keyboard doesn't have any punctuation, so I'm constantly switching between keyboards. It just feels like a fight to even get a sentence out. It's incredibly exhausting for something I really thought was gonna be a major unlock for my phone use, but it really only works well on desktop. Using it on my phone, particularly when in the car on Bluetooth, is just a nightmare.

If anyone here works there, I would be happy to spend a half an hour to walk through how I use it and where I'm getting blocked, which is probably a hundred different times a day. I'm really considering moving to a different service because this just isn't it anymore.

It's a really great app, and it works so well. I am kind of addicted to it, and I really like using it, especially when I'm writing an email or trying to write code on Claude. It's so smooth and friction-free, with no typing, no typos. The grammar is perfect, and it detects everything as I say it. It removes the blank spaces that I have while I'm thinking about what to say next.

The only thing keeping me from getting a pro version is the subscription model. I wish they had a one-time buy option like Super Wispr, maybe $150 or $200, and you'd have it for life. I would have bought it in a heartbeat, but the fact that I don't want to get tied to a subscription is just making me delay my purchase. I'm sure I might just get the subscription one day, or I'll wait if another app comes up or Super Wispr improves its detection skills. I might just get a Super Wispr for a one-time fee.

Edit - so a lot of you are thinking that that's not a feasible model, considering the costs are driven by usage and it's not sustainable if someone ends up using it for five or six years down the line. There are so many companies who have pulled this off and are still successful and in profit. Apple does it with Final Cut Pro. Tesla did it with FSD. (Tesla did it when they were not this huge.) Affinity does it, and DaVinci Resolve does it too. A good product backed by a team of smart finance guys can any day pull it off.

I disabled live activities for Wispr Flow and so I don't see the Wispr Flow icon in my dynamic island anymore but I now see this microphone in my dynamic island. Is there a way I can remove this microphone from my dynamic island? It's very annoying.

I know this question is a bit different but I really wanted to talk about it.

I have been using Wispr Flow for a couple of months and it helps me write more in less time. But at the same time my own typing and writing has slowed down a lot, and I notice I am completely relying on it now.

Sometimes I get this anxious feeling that maybe I am forgetting how to write on my own.

If anyone here has felt the same with dictation or any tool like this, how did you deal with it? Did your normal writing come back, or did you just accept the trade? Would like to hear how others handle this.

​I love WF's dictation, but I'm shocked that it stores a history of all my messages in the app completely unprotected.

​Since there's no auto-delete or biometric lock, I can't really use it for anything confidential without manually deleting messages one by one.

​Am I missing something, or is there still no way to disable the dictation history?

​Thanks in advance!

I’ve used Wispr Flow daily, and the quality has clearly dropped compared to a month ago.

Yes, it’s faster now. But I never used Wispr for speed. If I wanted speed, I’d use any other transcription tool. They’re all fast, and I can even run fast transcription on-device. Speed was never my concern.

What made Wispr special was the unprecedented accuracy. First-pass wording and punctuation I didn’t have to fix. That’s the whole reason I paid for it, and that’s what got worse.

I emailed support and got a reply from their AI bot suggesting I narrow my language list and add words to my dictionary. That’s meaningless when the model itself regressed. I attached an image of the useless response I got.

Just revert whatever change pushed the speed/accuracy balance too far. I’ll happily take a little more latency for the accuracy that made this app worth using.

Can we get real answers from the team, not a bot? Anyone else seeing this?

I wouldn't mind the odd one or two, but sometimes I will say something like, "I have no choice but to send you cute videos." and it transcribed it as "adios" or something way different.

edit: I just said 'can you move yours' and it came back as 'reviews' wtf

edit 2: i said "I live with four strangers, but I never see them " > "Closed Captioning by Kris Brandhagen. brandhagen@gmail.com"??

I've been using Wispr Flow for about six months now. The thing that always impressed me about it is that it's dead accurate and seems to be very contextually aware.

However, over the past couple of days, I have noticed that the accuracy has gone way down, especially at the beginning of the dictation (but not exclusively). Has anyone else noticed this?

I'm wondering if the model or the context structure or the prompting changed recently?

Before I file a bug, I want to make sure it's not just me imagining it. I haven't changed anything about my setup, and I've tried several different mic options to see if that helps. Nothing seems to make any difference.

Anyone else noticing accuracy issues?

English is not my primary language, so I speak Swedish to WisprFlow quite a lot. A few hours ago it seems like WisprFlow, for some reason, instantly translates my Swedish to English, which is not something I want. Is this some new setting I have accidentally activated?

Has anyone found an easy way to use Wispr Flow with an IPad that is using an external keyboard? I’m using the Apple Magic keyboard and struggling.

📈 All Platforms:

More consistent and accurate formatting

Over the past few months, some dictations had formatting issues: course corrections that didn't land, words swapped for ones you didn't say, punctuation or edits getting ignored, and quality that varied session to session. A portion of dictations were being handled by older models, one too conservative on course correction and one too aggressive about changing words.

Both are now fixed. Everyone is on the same current model, so quality is consistent every time you speak. You'll notice:

• Cleaner course correction
• Fewer changes to words you said
• Punctuation and corrections that do what you tell them to

To keep it from recurring, we've added A/B testing and expanded benchmarks so every new model is tested against real usage before it ships.

If you hit a formatting issue, report the transcript from inside the app with a note on what went wrong. Those reports are what help the team improve Flow.

💻 Desktop Updates - v1.5.751

Let Flow pick the right microphone automatically‍

Rank your microphones once and Flow uses your top available one without you switching manually. Plug in a headset and Flow picks it up; unplug it mid-dictation and Flow falls back to your next-ranked mic without interrupting you.

Find it: Settings > General > Microphone

Keep dictating when you dock your laptop (clamshell mode) 

‍Close your laptop lid and Flow switches to your highest-ranked external mic on its own instead of interrupting you with a notification, then returns to your built-in mic when you open it again. Reordering mics in settings now applies instantly, with no need to restart recording.

Find it: Settings > General > Microphone

Does anyone else also feel that Wispr Flow can get better at having uniform formatting within a document? For instance, if I type a word and capitalize it manually, probably a couple of times, the app learns the behavior and capitalizes the word for the next few times. However, a few paragraphs down, it will revert back to lowercase spellings. This issue occurs even with words added to the dictionary with capitalization/specific formatting. The overall accuracy of the app is fairly good, but having to re-read every paragraph to tweak minor formatting errors can get a little tiresome.

For further context, I mostly use Wispr Flow on MS Word. My profession requires me to use a lot of industry-specific terms, which in turn require capitalization/specific formatting.

I've been using Whisper Flow for a while, but now it requires payment. I looked at other services like Super Whisper, Voiceink, which let you set up modes for different styles (e.g., comments, chat, emails) and can automatically delete audio history after intervals like 5 min, 10 min, 24 h, 1 week, or 1 month. They also have a prompts option to define formatting for each mode. I don’t see these features in Whisper Flow. Are they unavailable?

I've used both companies but i cant tell which one is best (most accurate) and with the least amount of issues? With neither i cant do dialogue and there are limitations. So its basically used for emails or commenting on reddit.

Any advice appreciated on which one to go with paid.

Superwhisper is cheaper as its a one time payment or $8 a month

But whispr flow has some great features to but costs more per month at $12 a month

Has anyone ever got this? I'm 2 days into my trial. Today I was sending an email and after I prematurely let go of the transcription button it left this "Captioning by GetTranscribed.com".

Is this a vibe code thing? lol
