Wispr Flow is the dictation upgrade Android users deserve

This new Android app makes voice input easier and more accurate than ever—even compared with other top options.

Gee whiz, Gboard: You’re really falling behind.

For all the many ways Google’s Gboard keyboard makes tapping out text a breeze on Android, its ability to transcribe your speech and turn it into words isn’t exactly awe-inspiring.

Android’s voice-to-text setup has always been pretty good, relatively speaking—but now, newer and more effective options are popping up, and it’s suddenly seeming like a system from the past.

Last month, I introduced readers of my Android Intelligence newsletter to a new Android voice typing tool called Typeless that blows Gboard out of the water with its ability to actually understand what you’re saying and transform it into accurate, neatly formatted, and impressively cleaned-up text.

This week, another new contender has come along that’s a step better yet.

Psst: If you love these types of tools as much as I do, check out my free Cool Tools newsletter from The Intelligence. One useful, new discovery in your inbox every Wednesday!
