FUTO Voice Input

Offline voice input for Android keyboards and apps

Free plan · from $7 one-timeDictationChecked Oct 6, 2026

What is FUTO Voice Input?

FUTO Voice Input is an Android app that adds speech-to-text to keyboards and apps that support Android's standard voice input APIs. Recognition is based on OpenAI's Whisper model and runs entirely on the phone, and FUTO says recordings are never saved or sent anywhere. The app can be used without paying; FUTO asks people who find it useful to buy a one-time license, which is also valid for FUTO Keyboard.

FUTO Voice Input has a free plan. Paid plans start at $7 one-time through FUTO Pay ($9.99 as a Google Play in-app purchase). See every plan

Good for

  • Android users who want voice typing that works with no connection
  • People using keyboards such as HeliBoard, FlorisBoard or SwiftKey
  • Users who do not want dictation sent to a cloud service

Worth knowing

  • It is Android only and does not work with Gboard or Samsung Keyboard, which are tied to their own voice input.
  • The README says development has largely shifted to FUTO Keyboard, and the app notes that no major updates are expected.
  • Only 17 languages are offered by default; others are hidden because the smaller Whisper models handle them poorly.
  • The source code is under the FUTO Source First License 1.0, and Android's SpeechRecognizer API is not supported yet.

Key features

Voice input for keyboards and apps
It answers Android's standard speech recognition intent with a floating window, and it acts as a voice input method that opens in place of the keyboard when a compatible keyboard calls it.
Fully on-device recognition
All processing happens offline on the phone using Whisper models. FUTO says recordings are never saved or sent anywhere, and the app goes online only to download optional models.
English and multilingual models
English-only and multilingual models each come in three sizes, with 39, 74 or 244 million parameters. Smaller models respond faster and larger ones are more accurate.
Automatic language detection
The spoken language is detected automatically, with manual selection available. Seventeen languages are offered by default, and a setting reveals less well trained ones.
Several ways to install
The app is available from Google Play, from FUTO's F-Droid repository and as a standalone APK of about 70 MB. Only the Play Store build uses Play billing.
