Wispr Flow: AI Voice Keyboard

I use dictation as many people do because it is so much faster than texting. But even though the dictation features on smartphones and computers have gotten very, very good, they're still full of typos, they lack context, and generally you sound kind of like an imbecile - especially with ChatGPT. It's amazing that it can even understand what I'm saying at all. This app changes everything. It is context-aware. It capitalizes and adds punctuation properly. It automatically adds bullet points, lists, and paragraphs. Pair this with Raycast and the command feature, and you will barely have to type anymore. I imagine that for disabled and injured people, this is life-changing. It is shockingly good. Not only that, but assuming a typical risk profile, privacy mode is more than sufficient to ensure that if you don't want your input permanently archived. I used this for 5 minutes before I was like, "this is just going to be part of my life now. It's that good." You see what it did there? It added quotes automatically. Incredible.

Works Best on Mac, But Has Frustrating Issues on Mobile Devices I had high hopes for this based on all the positive reviews. The app performs quite well on Mac, which is why I’m giving it three stars instead of fewer. However, both the iPhone and iPad versions have significant problems. On iPhone, every time you use it, the app has to reopen and you need to swipe over multiple times. This often causes you to lose your screen entirely and have to start over—really frustrating when you’re trying to work efficiently. On iPad, it’s even worse. If you’re a creator who uses the Apple Keyboard or any external keyboard, the app simply doesn’t function properly. The most frustrating issue is that it disables the native repeat dictation feature, which creates major workflow problems. After dealing with constant headaches trying to make it work on my iPad, I ultimately had to uninstall it. It’s disappointing that these mobile compatibility issues haven’t been addressed yet. If you primarily work on iPhone or iPad with a keyboard setup, I’d recommend looking elsewhere until these problems are resolved. Mac users will likely have a better experience.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Note no customer supports not one review was replied to either positive or negative that speaks volumes.

So I've experienced an issue now at least five times when making a voice note or a flow note that should be saved to scratch pad. I will say whatever it is that I need to say in the moment with the hopes of it being captured and saved. Once I finish what my voice memo or voice note actually is, there's an error with the transcription and nothing can be found. I thought the functionality allowed for the actual voice memo to at least be saved, even if the transcription wasn't, but that's not happening. Given that a lot of my work relies on me capturing things in the moment, this is a huge issue for me. It happened once, I was okay. It happened twice, I was okay. Now this has happened five or six times, so I would like to kind of understand: what is the root cause for this? Is this normal? Is this something that's on your radar? What is the recommended fix? Because at this point it is costing me intellectual property, and that's an issue. Wispr Flow does great if I were using it to replace my keyboard and do talk to text, but if I'm being honest, Siri can do that. I really want to see the value from Wispr Flow, which is why I decided to buy the subscription, but this has been a frustration for me.
