On Device voice to text mobile app service.
Real-time speech-to-text mobile application; privacy-first: no audio goes off the device.
The Problem
There were privacy issues with existing transcription apps that store audio on remote servers, which were not suitable in the classroom, legal environments or personal settings, “Existing transcription apps store audio on remote servers — a privacy concern for classrooms, legal settings, and personal use. Users needed a reliable transcription tool that keeps all data local.
The Solution
An app that lets you transcribe audio using on-device speech recognition and does not record or send audio, everything is processed and stored on the device.
What I Built
Introduced confidence indicators in the UI to indicate the appropriate time for re-speaking a phrase, minimized the UI to one screen, one purpose, and added Google's on-device recognition engine to the Flutter's speech synthesis library.
Outcome
Strong user trust as a result of positioning as privacy-focused: utilized in classrooms, legal note-taking, accessibility settings where server-based apps not acceptable.
Future Scope
Multi-language support, Export to common formats (PDF, DOCX), Offline speaker diarisation to label who said what in multi-person recordings
