About FloatAI: ai voice to text
FloatAI is voice to text for the app you already have open. A floating mic sits over your screen. Tap it, speak, and your words are typed where the cursor is.
If no field is focused, or you turn direct insertion off, the transcript shows in a card with a Copy button.
Features
• Floating mic: dictate in messages, email, notes, documents, and search boxes without leaving the app
• Cursor insert: the transcript is typed into the field you are using
• Copy card: when insertion is off, copy the text in one tap
• On-device speech: Basic mode runs a downloaded speech model on your phone
• Speed and Accurate: pick a faster transcription or a more precise one
• Voice notes: save what you said and open it later
• History: review past transcriptions
• 100+ languages, plus auto-detect
• Silence stop: recording ends when you stop talking
• Draggable bubble: move it and it snaps to the edge of the screen
How it works
1. Allow the microphone, the floating bubble, and text insertion.
2. Open any app and put the cursor in a text field.
3. Tap the mic and speak. Voice to text appears at the cursor.
What people ask
What is FloatAI? A speech to text app with a floating microphone. You keep the keyboard you already use.
How do I dictate into another app? Focus a text field, tap the floating mic, and speak. FloatAI inserts the transcript at the cursor.
Does voice typing work offline? Basic mode transcribes on the device after the speech model is downloaded. Speed and Accurate modes send the recording to be transcribed.
Is FloatAI a voice keyboard? It floats above your keyboard, so you can type and dictate in the same field.
Download FloatAI and use voice to text in the app you already have open.
Use it for voice dictation, speech recognition, and talk to text when you would rather speak a message, email, or note than type it.
ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE
Using the Android AccessibilityService API for one optional feature: inserting text from the floating mic. When you dictate with the floating mic bubble, the service types your transcribed words straight into the text field you are using in any app, at your cursor, so you don't have to copy and paste.
• Off by default. You turn it on yourself in Android Settings after an in-app explanation, and you can turn it off at any time.
• It only looks up the text field that has focus when a transcription is ready, then inserts the text there.
• It does not read, collect, store or share any other screen content, and nothing it accesses is sent to our servers.
• While it is on, it also brings the floating mic bubble back after your phone restarts.
• Without it, the floating mic still works: your text appears in a popup with a Copy button.
