Paraphrase AI rewrites text you type or paste — in the writing style you choose, and in the language you want it back in. Paste your text, pick a style, tap Paraphrase. No account, no sign-up, nothing to set up. Three rewrites a day are included; Premium lifts the limit. It does one job: it says the same thing a different way. A sentence, a paragraph or a whole essay comes back as an Enhanced Version you can copy or share. HOW A REWRITE GOES Tap Paste to drop in whatever you copied, or type into the Input box; a live character count sits underneath. Pick a style — Humanize, Standard and Formal sit as pills, and More opens the full list. Choose the output language if you want one other than English. Tap Paraphrase. The Enhanced Version appears below it, with a copy button, a share button and the name of the style used. 28 WRITING STYLES Humanize is the one most people come for: it takes flat, machine-sounding text and gives it a natural human tone. Standard covers everyday rewriting and Formal polishes. Premium adds 25 more, among them Academic, Simple, Concise, Persuasive, Professional, Technical, Casual, Funny, Email Polisher and SEO Optimized. ANY OUTPUT LANGUAGE The output language is a searchable list of world languages, and it is open to everyone rather than held behind Premium — write a note in English and hand it over in Spanish. The app's own interface is a separate setting: it comes in 39 languages, it matches your phone, and you can change it in Settings. WHO IT SUITS Students turning a rough paragraph into something that reads properly. Anyone writing in English as a second language who wants an email to land right. Anyone holding a block of machine-written text that still reads like one. WITHOUT PREMIUM Three rewrites a day using Humanize, Standard and Formal, with the full output-language list. The count resets the next day. WITH PREMIUM Unlimited rewrites, all 28 styles, and the History tab: every finished rewrite saved with the original text, the Enhanced Version, the style used and the date. History keeps your 100 most recent rewrites, stays on the device, is never uploaded, does not sync between your phone and your tablet, and goes when the app does. WORTH KNOWING FIRST Rewriting happens online, so you need an internet connection. There is no account and no sign-in. Premium is held against your Apple ID, so Restore Purchases carries it to another device. Dark mode, the interface language, Rate Us and Report a problem are all in Settings. Subscription & Payment Information Premium is offered as: Weekly: $2.99/week Monthly: $6.99/month Annual: $34.99/year Lifetime: $69.99, paid once A free trial appears on the plan screen only when the App Store says your account is eligible for one. Payment will be charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple ID settings. Any unused free trial period, if offered, will be forfeited when a subscription is purchased.

SpeechToMarkdown
Read full descriptionHide full description
Turn your voice into clean, structured Markdown — entirely on your iPhone or iPad, with zero setup and zero cloud. Speech-to-Markdown listens as you talk and turns your rambling into a well-organized document in real time. Speech-to-text runs on Apple's on-device SpeechAnalyzer; formatting is handled by Apple's on-device Foundation Models. No servers, no API keys, no sign-in — it even works in airplane mode. HOW IT WORKS Just start a session and talk. As you speak, your words stream into a live document that gets restructured on the fly — headings, lists, and paragraphs appear as you go. Pause, resume, or start a new session anytime; everything is saved automatically and stays on your device. THREE WAYS TO USE YOUR VOICE • Format — free-form dictation. Ramble, and the whole document keeps getting reorganized as you add more. • Edit — turn your voice into an instruction. Select some text, then say "turn this into a bulleted list" or "rewrite the intro" and only that part changes. • Append — a fast mode for long documents. Only your new words get formatted and added to the end, so sessions stay quick no matter how long the document grows. THREE OUTPUT FORMATS Choose Markdown, plain text, or HTML — pick per session, switch anytime. BUILT FOR PRIVACY Everything happens on-device. There's no account to create, no analytics, no ads, and nothing is ever uploaded anywhere. Your recordings and documents live in the app's local storage and are visible in the Files app, under your control. SESSION HISTORY Every session is saved automatically. Reopen any past session to keep talking, edit the document, or export it — your raw transcript is always one tap away from the formatted result. GREAT FOR Meeting notes, journaling, blog and spec drafts, to-do lists, brainstorms, voice memos you actually want to read later — anywhere you'd rather talk than type. REQUIREMENTS iOS 26 or later on an Apple Intelligence–capable device: iPhone 15 Pro or newer, or an Apple Silicon iPad, with Apple Intelligence enabled in Settings.
