The Android keyboard

Setting it up

1. 1
   Allow the microphone
   SayFeather only listens while the button is orange.
2. 2
   Turn on the SayFeather keyboard
   Android warns that a keyboard can read what you type. SayFeather only sends the spoken text to your AI to be cleaned up, and only if you set that up.
3. 3
   Switch to SayFeather
   Tap Choose keyboard, or tap the keyboard icon at the bottom while you are typing.
4. 4
   Download the speech model
   Speech is recognised on your phone. The model is downloaded once, best over Wi-Fi.

Using it

Tap the microphone, speak, tap again. The keyboard also has next keyboard, delete, Enter and a space bar. Enter uses the field’s own action, such as Send or Search, when it has one.

Settings in the app: the language you speak, whether to clean up the text, whether to press Enter after dictating, your words, the built-in terms, the speech model, the licence and AI for clean-up. The licence, AI and sync work as on the computer.

Good to know

• Speech recognition runs on your phone with Whisper. Your voice does not leave it.
• Larger speech models hear better but are slow on most phones.
• If you prefer to keep your own keyboard, use the floating button.
