Vozkey

Dictation that stays on your phone.

A keyboard that types what you say. Tap Speak, talk, tap Stop, and the words land in whatever app you are already in.

Vozkey was built for people who can speak comfortably but cannot type comfortably: essential tremor, arthritis, RSI, weakness, a limb difference, a hand in a cast. Every control follows from that.

Built for hands that shake

• Tap to start, tap to stop. Never press-and-hold — sustained pressure and a clean release is exactly the motion a tremor makes unreliable.
• Large targets, generously spaced, that do not move under your finger.
• No key-repeat-on-hold anywhere. Delete a whole word with one tap instead of holding backspace down.
• Word corrections. Teach it a name it keeps getting wrong once, and it applies the fix from then on.

How it works

iOS does not allow a keyboard extension to open a microphone. Only an app can. So Vozkey has two parts: you open the app and tap Arm microphone before you go off to type, and the keyboard then uses the microphone the app is holding for you.

After you tap Stop, transcription takes a few seconds. Vozkey runs a large, accurate speech model on your phone's own processor instead of a fast one in a data centre. That is the trade being made: you wait a moment, and your voice never leaves your phone.

What Vozkey is not

It is a dictation keyboard, not a replacement for your typing keyboard. There are no letter keys. You switch to Vozkey to speak and back to your usual keyboard to type. Backspace, delete-word and clear-all are there so you can fix something without switching away.

Requirements

iPhone running iOS 26 or later. Newer iPhones transcribe noticeably faster. English and Spanish.
