Monologue for iOS - Turn your voice into polished writing—wherever you go.

Monologue turns your voice into polished writing—inside the apps you already use. From coding in the terminal to sending a quick message to grandpa, Monologue is the shortest distance between speech and writing. Unlike basic dictation, Monologue doesn't just transcribe. It rewrites, removes filler words, adds punctuation, and adapts to context. Your texts sound like texts. Your emails sound human. Your notes turn into clean lists and structured thoughts.

I was a Monologue desktop user but made the switch to Wispr Flow because they had an iOS app. Was never completely happy with Wispr Flow but it was better than Apple dictation so I stuck with it. As soon as I saw the Monologue iOS was released I immediately switched back. You can tell that this was created by people that care deeply about the experience. Every interaction I've had with this app brings a smile to my face. They've managed to make a digital experience feel analog: like I'm interacting with an old-school recording device. The dictation is excellent, better than similar tools I've tried and I've tried a lot, and most importantly, fast. Congrats on the launch and creating a delightful experience. If this doesn't win an Apple design award I will be shocked.

@joshuacolvin Thank you

@joshuacolvin You love to hear it! Feedback like this makes us want to double down on making Monologue experience 10X better! Thanks a ton! Re: Apple design award, fingers crossed — I also think @lucaslove @darustudio and @lucas_crespo did a fantastic job.

Awesome product! We’re currently building a startup that relies heavily on speech-to-text, and this looks like something that could significantly improve our workflow. Do you have plans to support Android as well, or are you focusing solely on iOS?

Naveen Naidu

@olexiy_vasylenko Hey, we do have Android and Windows app planned, but that will be for the second half of the year.

Victor Stepanov

@olexiy_vasylenko as Naveen said, Android is in the plans, but we'll still have to wait quite a bit. You can join the waitlist here if you want: https://www.monologue.to/waitlist

Ohhhhhh i love that we're both introducing voice messages to the world ahahah

How does Monologue build and maintain that personal context/vocab learning? Is it on-device fine-tuning, cloud-based user profiles with privacy controls, or a hybrid? Any cool tricks for handling domain-specific jargon (e.g., devs dictating code, lawyers with legalese, or medical pros)?

Also platform-wise (looks Mac/iOS focused from chatter), any plans for Windows/Android expansion, or deeper integrations like system-wide hotkeys in more apps (beyond the usual suspects like Cursor, Notion, etc.)? And how's offline/local model support looking for privacy-conscious users?

@cathcorm Dictionary and modes is where you can build your own personal context and vocab. I personally think modes is where Monologue shines a lot, and you can bring your own domain-specific jargons or your own writing so that Monologue adapts to your style

Catherine Cormier

@naveennaidu_m awesome!! thank you so much for taking the time to get back to me :)

Victor Stepanov

@cathcorm Windows/Android is in the plans, but more towards the second half of the year, you can join the waitlist here by the way: https://www.monologue.to/waitlist

@victorstepanov11 ouhhhhhh love that!

This is such a strong endorsement 🙌

“Digital experience that feels analog” is such a beautiful way to describe it. Huge congrats on the iOS launch : )

@rohithreddy Thank you

Victor Stepanov

@rohithreddy Thanks a lot! You love to hear it. We hope you'll love the new features coming up soon! Keep monologue-ing!

Switching costs are real: users have custom vocabularies, snippets, and habits. What’s your strategy for making it painless for someone to move their existing “voice workflow” to Monologue (e.g., personal dictionary, modes), and what’s the smallest ‘aha’ moment that reliably converts them?
Naveen Naidu

@curiouskitty On Mac, you can actually import dictionary from other apps into Monlogue, so it's easy for people to just move the dictionary and import it to Monologue, which in turn syncs directly with the iOS app as well

Voice-to-text apps usually nail accuracy OR the post-processing - rarely both. Curious about filler words vs intentional pauses. My voice notes are pretty chaotic but there's a rhythm to the rambling I'd hate to lose. How opinionated is the 'polished writing' step?

@Monologue congrats with the launch guys! i love your visual style

Congrats on launching Monologue, it looks promising for those looking to streamline their writing. How do you plan to ensure users stay engaged and come back regularly after their initial experience?

I love using Monologue on my Mac! Please make an Android version soon, too.

Thibault Mundele

I'm a heavy, heavy, heavy user of Wispr Flow. What would you say are the main differences with you guys?

Thibault Mundele

Actually just went on and downloaded the app on my phone. The simple fact that I can switch from one keyboard to Monologue keyboard without having to go through the app like Wispr is a big difference already. Funny that I'm saying that using Wispr Flow, but I will most likely switch to you guys. :D

And you're also less expensive. Love that!
