Futo is owned by a billionaire and they give away tons of money to many foss projects, including GrapheneOS.

    I'm not [deleted] , but I was curious about the owner myself.

    A quick search brought up the following quote (it's from the organization's website - so take it accordingly):

    That organization is FUTO, founded in 2021 by 18-year Silicon Valley veteran, programmer/founder of Yahoo! Games, and WhatsApp seed investor Eron Wolf.

    KontraGoog Hi @KontraGoog and @jacobb, you might be interested in my speech to text app called Transcribro. It has a higher delay, more UI options, and settings to customize the behavior, along with some useful features, one of them introduced with 0.3.0 makes editing mistakes or just adding more words take less switching back to another keyboard to fix capitalization and punctuation. Check it out on GitHub here: https://github.com/soupslurpr/Transcribro and check out the release notes of the latest release (at the time of writing, 0.3.0) here: https://github.com/soupslurpr/Transcribro/releases/tag/v0.3.0

    It's available on the Accrescent app store and GitHub releases.

    Has anyone used both Transcribro and Futo Voice? How do they compare?

    I've just come here looking for an alternative to transcribio. I could not get it to work while Heliboard was running (would never be available on keyboard switch). It would only appear when Heliboard was disabled, and even then wouldn't respond when active.

    Yes, mic access enabled.

    will give FUTO a go.

      FUTO keyboard is a killer app. So good.

      Off topic:
      One small tweak I'd like to see is the enabling by choice an option to visibly include special long press characters behind each key as you can see in Heliboard.

      BadRobot Hey, could you give more info on what you mean by "would never be available on keyboard switch"? It takes around 3 seconds of not speaking for it to start computing the transcript. You can trigger it earlier by tapping on the mic button.
