The company released its app for Mac and Windows first, then <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/06\/03\/wispr-flow-releases-ios-app-in-a-bid-to-make-dictation-feel-effortless\/\">launched on iOS in June 2025<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On iOS, users could use Wispr Flow through a dedicated keyboard. On Android, the interface is a bit different, as you can access the dictionary through a floating bubble. You can hold the bubble and dictate, or press once to start, and then press the close button to stop the process. Just like on other platforms, in addition to dictation, the app cleans up the filter words and also formats the text based on the context of the app and spoken content.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;Android finally gave us the freedom to build the voice experience we always wanted. Only when the platform gets out of the way can we truly expect voice to replace typing on mobile,&#8221; Tanay Kothari, co-founder and CEO of the startup, said. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The app can support translation in over 100 languages and can work across other apps. Along with the Android app release, Wispr Flow said that it has done an infrastructure rewrite that makes dictation 30% faster than before. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><div id='jwppp-video-box-30954931' class='jwppp-video-box' itemprop='video' itemscope itemtype='http:\/\/schema.org\/VideoObject' data-video='1' style=\"margin: 1rem 0;\">\n<meta itemprop='name' content='Wispr Flow Android app launch.mp4'\/>\n<meta itemprop='description' content='-'\/>\n<meta itemprop='thumbnailUrl' content='https:\/\/cdn.jwplayer.com\/thumbs\/u7o9uoMQ-720.jpg'\/>\n<meta itemprop='uploadDate' content='2026-02-23T00:01:00-08:00'\/>\n<meta itemprop='contentUrl' content='https:\/\/cdn.jwplayer.com\/v2\/media\/u7o9uoMQ'\/>\n<span class=\"jwppp-instant\" style=\"display: none;\" data-video=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/?jwp-instant-articles=1&#038;player=GQNKsmiX&#038;mediaID=u7o9uoMQ\" data-width=\"480\" data-height=\"270\"><\/span><div id='jwppp-video-30954931' class='jwplayer'>Loading the player...<\/div>\n<script class=\"tcembed-script\" type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/content.jwplatform.com\/libraries\/GQNKsmiX.js\"><\/script><script type='text\/javascript'>\nvar playerInstance_30954931 = jwplayer( \"jwppp-video-30954931\" );\nplayerInstance_30954931.setup({\nplaylist: \"https:\/\/cdn.jwplayer.com\/v2\/media\/u7o9uoMQ\",\n})\n<\/script><\/div><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While there are tons of <a href=\"https:\/\/techcrunch.com\/2025\/12\/30\/the-best-ai-powered-dictation-apps-of-2025\/\">AI-powered dictation apps available on desktop and iOS<\/a>, Wispr Flow is one of the few available on Android with this launch, besides Typeless, which launched <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/huang_song_\/status\/2013522407055860072\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">an app for the platform last month<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What&#8217;s more, the company has also released a new model for Hinglish, a mix of Hindi and English, for people in India who speak in mix-coded way. <\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-techcrunch-inline-cta\">\n\t<div class=\"inline-cta__wrapper\">\n\t\t<div class=\"inline-cta__logo\">\n\t\t\t<svg aria-hidden=\"true\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"41\" height=\"20\" fill=\"none\" viewBox=\"0 0 41 20\"><path fill=\"#fff\" d=\"M0 0v6.452h7.097V20h7.097V6.452h6.451V0zM27.742 13.548V6.452h-7.097V20h20v-6.452zM40.645 0H27.742v6.452h12.903z\"\/><\/svg>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"inline-cta__flag\">Techcrunch event<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"inline-cta__content\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"inline-cta__header-container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"inline-cta__header-container-desktop\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"inline-cta__header has-h-5-font-size\">Save up to $300 or 30% to TechCrunch Founder Summit<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h4 class=\"inline-cta__subheader\">1,000+<strong> founders<\/strong> and investors come together at <strong>TechCrunch Founder Summit 2026<\/strong> for a full day focused on growth, execution, and real-world scaling.
