Roadmap

The next releases, in the expected order. No dates are promised. Each feature is described in the guide once it ships, and the changelog lists every release.

In development

Google Play In development

The Android app is on the releases page; see the phone page. A listing on Google Play is being prepared: Google asks a personal developer account for a closed test with at least 12 testers taking part for 14 days in a row before the app can apply to be published.

You can help Voltip get there sooner by joining the closed test: join the community group to sign up, and the group explains how to take part. You need an Android phone with Google Play and a Google account. Please stay in the test until it ends, since a tester who leaves early is not counted.

Planned

• Streaming recognition with other cloud services. With the built-in service, text while you speak comes from the service itself; with another provider it still needs the local live transcription model.
• A check that the field in focus accepts text before pasting.
• More local models, such as Whisper, and measurements on AMD and Intel graphics cards.
• Exporting and importing all data, and a diagnostics bundle.
• Code signing for the Windows packages.
• An iOS app, with the phone as a microphone and keyboard as on Android. Planned for a later release.

Deliberately left out

• Listening all the time, or stopping when you fall silent. An always-on microphone could type other people's words into the app in front, and stopping on silence cuts off dictation in a noisy room.
• Polishing sentence by sentence in Type as you speak. Sentences already typed cannot be taken back and rewritten.
• Speaker separation and meeting detection. Importing audio and video files and exporting their subtitles is available; see Import audio or video.
• Browser addresses, the clipboard or screenshots as context for AI polish. They can contain sensitive content unrelated to the dictation.
• A browser-only version. The global shortcut, typing into other apps and local models need a native app.
• Packages for Windows on ARM and Linux on ARM, for now.
