That’s exactly why we built WhisKey — a dictation app that actually respects your privacy. No creepy servers, no mystery “cloud” holding your conversations. Everything happens right on your iPhone or iPad, powered by some seriously clever AI.
Think of it as having a super-fast, multilingual secretary living in your pocket — except this one never sends your voice to strangers, doesn’t need Wi-Fi, and works in 12+ languages. Chinese, English, Japanese, Korean, French, German… even if you switch mid-sentence, it’ll keep up.
And it’s not just about privacy — it’s fast. Tap record, speak naturally, and within seconds your words are on screen, ready to drop into Messages, WhatsApp, Notes, or wherever you need them. We even built a custom keyboard so you don’t have to leave the app you’re in.
Different situations? Different brains. WhisKey lets you pick from lightweight models for quick notes or big powerful ones when accuracy matters most. You download only what you need, so your storage (and patience) stays intact.
We also made it playful — the Dynamic Island lights up with recording status, and there’s even a step-by-step video tutorial built right in. No manuals, no headaches. Just tap, talk, and watch your voice become text.
So whether you’re a student turning lectures into notes, a creator capturing podcast ideas on the fly, or just someone who values their privacy (and hates typing with thumbs), WhisKey was built for you.
And yes, we promise: your voice never leaves your device. What you say is yours — and only yours.

This is apparently THE app I need to do what I wanna do and have private transcript. But I find that the integrated keyboard simply doesn’t work and loses control of the audio device. Inside the app the note taking function works flawlessly and there’s a lot of value to that for my purposes so I’ll hang onto it, but I will not be paying until the keyboard works correctly. And all my testing no matter what I do and try it simply doesn’t inject the resulted recording type into that app text input for some reason, even though our permissions are enabled, and I followed all the instructions.
Developer Response
Thanks for your feedback! I appreciate you bringing this to my attention. I'll definitely be using your feedback to improve the UI and address these issues. To help me troubleshoot the keyboard issue, could you please provide more details, such as: device info, os version? Please reach out to me directly : admin@forthrighttech.com Regarding the audio interruption, it sounds like you've already granted permission. I'll be working on improving this feature in future updates. Thanks again for your patience and feedback!
Really helpful for voice input
SFOBATMAN
I'm thoroughly impressed with WhisKey, the keyboard extension app that utilizes whisper model technology for voice input. It far surpasses the iOS dictation feature in terms of accuracy and efficiency. The app's whisper model allows for smooth, natural speech recognition!!
AWESOME WORK

When I’m doing vibe coding, this app is a must-have. It magically filters out all my “um” and “ah” fillers and turns my speech into clean text. Some words still come out incorrect, but hopefully the next update will fix that.
* allow user to set chunk length
* fix some UI/UX issues
