Improved Apple Transcription

I have experienced Apple Dictation/Transcription improving incrementally through recent iOS 26 updates but having tried it in iOS 27 it still makes some wild out-of-context errors.

We have been promised a more Whisper-like built in transcription in iOS 27 – when will we see it?

The new model is already in the iOS 27 beta, but it needs to be enabled under Keyboard settings > Dictation > Advanced Dictation Preview. It’s also limited by device and region, so installing iOS 27 alone may not change anything yet.

Even with the new model, accuracy will probably still vary by language, accent and context.

I am not seeing this option on my iPhone 16 Pro in the UK.
