Auri AI Assistant & Keyboard 4+

I’m still testing

I’m still testing with the free version. What has particularly peaked my interest and may well push me to buy the annual subscription is the ability to translate my voice notes to text. Very impressive feature as I often can’t stop to write down my thoughts but can make a quick voice note on my Apple Watch. In the past I had to manually transcribe and that often meant these voice notes went by the wayside. Now being able to upload them, I can store them as a brain dump and then organize and upload to my documents from there.

The only downside to this app is there is only an IOS version of this program so I can’t use this on my PC or my tablet. I do however use CHATGPT, which cannot translate voice notes. This one feature leaves me caught between CHATGPT and this program in terms of whom I’m going to subscribe with. Definitely first world problems that I’ll work out soon. Hopefully one day this app will be available for Windows/Android as well.

Basically Grammarly on steroids. Great start!

I’ve been using Auri AI as my primary keyboard for over a month now as one of the beta testers. (No, I’m not getting paid for this, I simply love cool new apps.)

While autocomplete still has ways to go to get to Apple’s level, the AI features are absolutely mind-blowing.

I use the “magic” grammar correction all the time, and I find it much easier than going through every mistake like with other keyboards.

My second most used feature is translation. While it sounds banal–why not just open google translate–the ability to tap a button and get the instant perfect translation right on iMessage or WhatsApp is a much better experience than copy-pasting your message and switching between the apps.

The “chat with Auri” feature is very convenient too! It’s basically like having ChatGPT on your iPhone without all the hassle.

I don’t use rewriting or replying to emails much, but when I do, they work as intended.

Overall, there are some things to improve, but I still love it, and not going back to any other keyboard any time soon!

Thank you for such a detailed and thoughtful review! 🙏 Your feedback and suggestions during the early beta were invaluable and much appreciated! The autocomplete improvements are already in the works and will be released in V2.0, along with many new features and other improvements!

Finally, Auri is on Mac!

I've been using Auri on my iPhone and iPad since day one, and I'm so glad that it's finally available on Mac!

(I wish the features of the iOS AI keyboard were somehow also transferred to Mac, but I'll take the chat, transcription, notes, and dictation😄)

The first thing you need to know is that Auri has the best transcription out of any other apps on the App Store. It's mind-blowingly accurate and super fast! I use it for brain dumps literally every day: I record on my Apple Watch when I go on walks, then transcribe on my iPhone (well, now I can do that on my MacBook lol), then clean up and summarize my ramblings into cool notes. It's freaking magic!

I love the chat feature too, of course (who doesn't, it's 2023), so it's cool to have it on Mac too.

I guess I'll use dictation the most since I use it dozens of times a day on my iPhone (it's crazy accurate, you've got to try it).

Thank you, Auri team, for continuing to develop a wonderful app!
