Great solution

Absolutely a great solution to get a local model running on your phone so you can have better text to speech. Early phases, but this is very promising

Please, add SRT file export option…

Hello!

Thank you for the excellent WhisperBoard app β€” it works perfectly offline on my iPad, the transcription is very accurate, and the interface is clean and simple. I especially love that everything runs on-device, no ads, no subscriptions.

I often use it to record thoughts/interviews and I see segments with timestamps right in the app (e.g. [00:00:00.00 - 00:00:02.00]). This is already almost ready for subtitles!

Are you planning to add export to .srt (or .vtt) with these timestamps? It would be a huge help for creating subtitles for videos/audio. Many users have requested this in reviews, and it would make the app even more versatile.

Thank you for your great work! Looking forward to updates 😊

Best regards

Amazing !

Minor suggestions: Would be nice to have β€˜quantized’ explained more clearly. Also to have examples of differences between each model transcribing the same clip.
