About
Speak instead of typing.
ARA is a private voice-to-text keyboard for messages, email, notes, browsers, and other text fields. Use the microphone, speak naturally, then finish. ARA inserts the complete result where you are writing.
WHY ARA
• On-device voice transcription
• Long pauses keep your earlier words
• Supported offline recognition languages
• One-tap cleanup for the visible sentence
• A personal dictionary for names and specialist terms
• Reusable text snippets
• Local word predictions and keyboard haptics
• Keyboard appearance controls
LOCAL WRITING INTELLIGENCE
On iOS 26, Apple Foundation Models can improve cleanup on supported devices. ARA uses local rules when the model is unavailable. Both methods stay on your iPhone.
PRIVACY BY DESIGN
ARA has no account, advertising, analytics, or cloud speech. Full Access carries commands and results through Apple's App Group on this device. The keyboard extension contains no network code.
ONE-TIME UNLOCK
One lifetime purchase unlocks every ARA feature forever. There is no subscription.
ARA requires iOS 17 or later. Language availability depends on the on-device speech recognition installed on your iPhone.
