Hi people
Is there any good FOSS dictation and transcription software similar to Just Press Record for Android and/or Linux?
I couldnβt find anything so far. Thanks a lot.
Not FOSS as itβs under another license, but thereβs βFUTO Voice Inputβ if youβre looking for a local alternative to Googleβs voice dictation on Android
https://gitlab.futo.org/alex/voiceinput
The repo has a list of supported and unsupported Android keyboards. Under the hood it uses OpenAI Whisper
I just tried this out. Besides the fact that it doesnβt stream and translates after speech is done, itβs absolutely fantastic. Of course, it would suffer in accuracy if it were translating a stream so I think thatβs a plus instead of a minus, although some people might not think so.
