Monologue is what happens when you talk through your work instead of typing it. It starts as dictation that writes what you meant. Use it for voice notes on a walk. Use it for meetings without a bot. Give the transcript to your agents and keep building. It stays with you from Cursor to a walk to a call. WHY PEOPLE SWITCH Most dictation apps get the words down. Monologue gets the intent. It cleans filler, matches the tone of the app you are in, and remembers your names and jargon. WHAT YOU GET • Dictation in any app. Cursor, Slack, email, iMessage, docs. Talk, and the text is ready to send. • Voice notes on a walk. Record from iPhone or Apple Watch. Transcript and summary waiting when you are back. • Meetings without a bot.

Both are free to download. Monologue sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.99 per month and FloatyDo sells 2 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
FloatyDo holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Monologue has 294 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 84% and 83% positive.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 15, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
