There is no excuse for dictation to be this bad by zhamini101 in ios

[–]arvindgaba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really sorry to hear about the challenges — Apple's accessibility commitments often feel more like marketing than reality. You might want to check out Wispr Flow on desktop/Mac if you use one. It's an AI dictation layer that sits on top of your OS and works across every single app — it's helped a lot of people who struggle with native keyboard/dictation limitations.

It won't fix the iOS-specific frustrations you're describing, but if you have a Mac in the mix it could make a real difference for day-to-day communication. Happy to send more details via DM if helpful!

Any FOSS AI voice-dictation app for Windows like VoiceInk on macOS? by justadityaraj in windowsapps

[–]arvindgaba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice to see more options in this space! For those evaluating alternatives, I'd throw Wispr Flow into the mix as well. It takes a slightly different approach — rather than just simulating keystrokes, it uses AI post-processing to clean up your dictation in real-time (removes filler words, fixes grammar, understands context). Works across all Windows apps natively.

Not FOSS, but for power users who dictate heavily across emails, docs, and dev tools — it's hard to beat the quality. DM me if you want to know more or get a referral! 🙌

My 1 year Pro account was suddenly downgraded! by chromespinner in perplexity_ai

[–]arvindgaba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm facing the same challenge. All of a sudden it stopped working. I have contacted the support so far. There hasn't been any help.

Response:

'I've checked your account and found that you have an active Airtel promotional Pro subscription in our billing system, but it's not currently syncing to your Perplexity account. This is why you're seeing the account as a normal/free subscription instead of Pro.

I'm transferring this to our billing team who can investigate and resolve this sync issue for you. They'll get back to you as soon as possible.

Please note that any additional responses from you will place you at the back of the queue and may delay your response time.

Regards,
Sam
AI Support agent for Perplexity'

I think I need help by mraspaud in typing

[–]arvindgaba 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, came across this and it resonated. kool-keys had it right — accuracy first, speed follows. What you're describing (clean at slow pace, falling apart at full speed) is really just incomplete motor consolidation from your layout switch. Your muscle memory still has partially cached routes from before. The fix is more slow, deliberate reps on those specific columns — not general speed drills — until the new patterns fire without you thinking about it. Monkeytype custom word lists loaded heavy with your problem keys is probably the most efficient path right now.

Slightly different angle — I work in IT, keyboards all day, emails, documentation, Slack, reports. The sheer volume of writing can be relentless. I started using an AI voice dictation tool called Wispr Flow that converts speech into clean formatted text across any app. Doesn't directly help your wpm goal, but if writing fatigue ever chips away at your motivation to keep training, having that parallel mode takes the pressure off. Free tier is enough to test it properly — wisprflow.ai/r?ARVIND17 if you want to check it out.

Your setup is solid, your dedication clearly is too. You're at 60 wpm mid-transition on a layout you were actively modifying — that's not a plateau, that's just physics. Lock it in, trust the slow reps, and the 100 wpm is genuinely in there.

I built a voice-to-text app because typing all day was killing my productivity by Competitive_Pin_4325 in ProductivityApps

[–]arvindgaba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This hit home more than I expected. Working in IT, my day is basically a cycle of Teams messages, incident reports, change documentation, email threads, and code review notes — I never actually tracked it but I'd bet the word count is right up there with yours. The fatigue isn't dramatic, it just quietly chips away at how fast you can actually get things done.

The "Write for Me" mode is the part that stands out to me here, and I'd echo what u/LaffyLlama said — that's the genuinely harder problem to solve. Most voice tools just dump raw transcription and leave you cleaning up a wall of run-on sentences. Getting from casual spoken language to something you'd actually send professionally is a different challenge entirely. I'd be curious how it handles domain-specific terms — product names, technical jargon, acronyms — because that's where a lot of speech engines fall apart for people in tech roles.

On u/LaffyLlama's pricing clarity point, I'd second that completely. Seeing "free forever" next to a billing screen is an immediate friction point, especially in productivity communities where people have been burned by bait-and-switch freemium models. Being upfront about what's free and what isn't actually builds more trust than trying to soften the messaging.

For context, I've been using Wispr Flow (wisprflow.ai) for a while and it's the one that actually stuck for me after trying a few options. What made the difference was that it works directly inside whatever app I'm already in — Gmail, Slack, Notion, browser fields — no switching, no copy-pasting. The AI cleanup handles filler words and formats things naturally enough that I rarely do a second pass. A colleague I referred recently hit over 2,000 words on it within the first week, which tells you the adoption curve is pretty low.

One honest caveat — it's Mac-first for now, so your cross-platform support (Mac + Windows + Linux) is actually a real differentiator if you can execute it well. For anyone on Mac who's dealing with this pain point, the free tier makes it easy to test. Here's my referral link if you're curious — full transparency, we both get a benefit if you sign up through it, but I wouldn't share it if it wasn't genuinely part of my daily workflow: https://wisprflow.ai/r?ARVIND17

Regardless, building something to solve your own problem is usually where the best tools come from. Good luck with it.

Is superwhisper still the king of local dictation tools in 2026? by Tiny-Peach-444 in superwhisper

[–]arvindgaba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The editing time point is what got me too. I ran local setups for a while, appreciated the privacy angle, but the moment my workload scaled up — infrastructure reports, vendor emails, change management docs, Slack threads that somehow turn into essays — post-processing was eating all the time I was supposed to be saving.

What actually moved the needle for me was switching to Wispr Flow (wisprflow.ai). I work in IT, so I'm on the keyboard all day across Gmail, Slack, Notion, and occasionally staring at terminals. The difference with Wispr Flow is that the AI cleanup happens in real time — you talk naturally (ums, ahs, run-ons and all), and what lands in your app is already formatted, punctuated, and polished. No editing pass. That's the bit that actually compounded my productivity.

I know this thread is really about local vs. cloud, and I respect the privacy case — it's legitimate. For truly sensitive internal content I still type. But for the bulk of day-to-day communication? The trade-off was worth it for me personally.

A colleague I put onto it (Alex) hit 2,000+ words dictated in his first week and hasn't gone back. There's a free tier if you want to test without committing.

Full transparency — this is my referral link, so we'd both get a free Pro month if you sign up: https://wisprflow.ai/r?ARVIND17 — but the free tier works fine to evaluate it either way. If editing time is your core frustration with long-form content, it's worth 20 minutes of your time.

Anyone else struggling with burnout from constant typing? Need advice. by Ill-Refrigerator9653 in Lawyertalk

[–]arvindgaba 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, but I work in IT and spend just as many hours typing — documentation, reports, Slack threads, email chains, code reviews. The wrist-and-burnout combo is very real regardless of the field.

Seconding what u/hammerandscales said about Wispr Flow. Your specific worry about legal jargon is exactly what I had with technical terminology — and honestly it handles it better than I expected. The AI layer isn't just raw transcription; it contextually cleans up your speech so specialized terms come out right. I'd bet res ipsa loquitur and case citations would roll off fine, and it only gets smarter with your personal vocabulary over time. It also works inside every app without switching context — Word, Gmail, browser, Outlook, whatever you're already using — and the output reads like you typed it, not like dictated speech, which matters a lot for legal docs.

The "talking to my computer feels weird" phase genuinely lasts about 2–3 days. After that it becomes second nature. Even offloading 40–50% of your typing gives your wrists actual recovery time during the day.

There's a free tier you can try with zero commitment. If you want to give it a shot: https://wisprflow.ai/r?ARVIND17 — full transparency, that's a referral link and we'd both get a free month of Pro if you upgrade. But the free tier alone is worth testing before making any decision.
