Outspoke is a free and open-source speech-to-text keyboard for Android.
All transcription happens entirely on your device using the NVIDIA Parakeet ASR model via ONNX Runtime - no audio ever leaves your phone, no account required, and no internet connection is needed after the model is downloaded.
Features
- Fully on-device inference - completely private
- Works as a standard Android Input Method (IME) in any app
- Downloads the model once over Wi-Fi; works offline afterwards
- No Google Play Services, Firebase, or any third-party telemetry
- Minimal permissions: microphone, notifications, foreground service
Requirements
- Android 11 (API 30) or higher
- ~700 MB free storage for the model file
Open Source Outspoke is licensed under GPL-3.0 license. Source code and build instructions are available on GitHub.
WhatsNew:
* Reduced first-word hallucinations
* Memory-pressure resilience
* Holding the mic button is now more reliable
* Soft script-hallucination handling
* Fixed sentence-boundary capitalisation of mid-sentence continuations to prevent stranded capitals like "...do it. To be able...".
Anti-Features: NonFreeNet(this application promotes/depends a non-Free network service):
⇒ Depends on HugginFace to download models.
While you can download the APKs here directly, you should preferably use an F-Droid client so the app stays up-to-date on your device. Some clients have this repo enabled by default, e.g. Neo Store, Droid-ify, or, of course, the IzzyOnDroid client by Sunil. With others (like the official client) you'll have to add this repo manually (see the hint on top of the package list for how to do that).
