Cerebro Keyboard: AI Dictation
Voice Typing & Speech to Text
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
iPhone
Speak and it's typed: voice to text in almost any app, from Messages to Mail. AI modes rewrite or translate on request. 20 free transcriptions a month, no account.
Cerebro Keyboard is an AI voice keyboard for iPhone: speech to text right where you are typing. Tap the orb, speak normally, and your words appear in the text field. If you like, AI rewrites your text in a different tone or translates it first.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Install Cerebro Keyboard and follow the setup in the app: add Cerebro Voice Keyboard in Settings and turn on "Allow Full Access".
2. In the app you're typing in, switch to Cerebro Voice Keyboard with the globe key.
3. Tap the orb and speak. The first time, Cerebro opens for a moment to start the microphone, because iOS doesn't let keyboards use it. Swipe back to your app and keep talking.
4. Tap the orb again when you're done, and your text is typed in.
FEATURES
• Works in almost any app — Cerebro Keyboard is a system keyboard, so you can use it in Messages, WhatsApp, Mail, Notes, Slack and most other apps. In password fields iOS always switches to its own keyboard, and some apps don't allow third-party keyboards.
• Ready for the next dictation — After each dictation, the microphone stays ready for 10 minutes, so the next one starts right in the keyboard. Once the 10 minutes are up, Cerebro opens for a moment again. iOS shows the orange dot while the microphone is ready. Audio is only recorded and sent when you tap the orb.
• Up to 2 minutes per dictation — Enough for a long message.
• Live Activity — Follow your dictation in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen, and stop or cancel it from there.
• AI modes — Let AI rewrite what you said. Built-in modes: Professional (business tone), Casual (friendly), Concise (no filler words), Clean (no swear words), English and German (translation). Community modes like Shakespeare and Pirate add some fun, and you can create as many custom modes as you like with your own prompt.
• Custom dictionary — Add names and technical terms that often get misheard, so Cerebro spells them right.
• Many languages — Cerebro detects the language you speak automatically. The app itself is available in English and German.
• Time saved — The app estimates how much time you save compared to typing.
• No letter keys — Cerebro is made for speaking. When you want to type, switch to your usual keyboard with the globe key.
PRIVACY
What you dictate is processed by OpenAI. Don't dictate passwords, card numbers, health information or anything else confidential.
Your recording goes through our server in Germany to OpenAI and is deleted right after transcription. Your transcripts are stored only on your iPhone. Text you send to an AI mode and the words in your dictionary are kept on our server for up to 7 days so we can fix errors. Cerebro doesn't log your keystrokes, and there is no account to create.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
New onboarding: a real microphone test with a live level meter, and a clear page about what happens to your voice before you agree. Recordings no longer get lost when you're offline or something goes wrong: the recording is kept in History and transcribed as soon as it can be, or with one tap. The monthly counter now updates after every dictation, and Pro members see their unlimited status on the start screen. Custom AI modes take their name from the example you tap. New app icon.
