Practical overview

When it fits

Use it for English voice typing on Android, either directly through its keyboard or in apps that support its speech-to-text service.

Who it is for

  • Android users who want to dictate text through a voice-input keyboard.
  • People using apps that can invoke Transcribro or use Android’s selected speech-to-text service.

Documented uses

  • Enter dictated text through Transcribro’s keyboard.
  • Provide speech-to-text input to compatible Android apps through the selected speech-to-text service.
  • Use English speech recognition processed on-device.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The project README lists Accrescent and GitHub releases as download sources and recommends Accrescent.

  • The README currently lists English as the only supported language.
  • Service-based use depends on whether the other app supports the selected speech-to-text service; the keyboard is the direct input route.
  • The repository identifies the project as Kotlin-based and ISC-licensed.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Use Transcribro for Android speech-to-text

Install Transcribro and use its voice-input keyboard for English dictation.

Before you start

  • An Android device.
  • Transcribro, available through Accrescent or GitHub releases.

Steps

  1. Install Transcribro from Accrescent, which the project recommends, or obtain it from GitHub releases.

  2. Open an app where you want to enter text and use Transcribro's voice-input keyboard to dictate.

  3. For another app's speech-to-text feature, set Transcribro as the user-selected speech-to-text app if that app uses Android's selected service.

Expected outcome

Transcribro provides on-device English speech recognition as keyboard input or, where supported by another app, through Android's selected speech-to-text service.

Guide limitations

  • The README states that Transcribro currently supports only English.
  • Only apps that explicitly use Transcribro or use Android's selected speech-to-text service can use it through those integration paths.
