Vibe Typer

Vibe Typer is voice typing for your iPhone: a dictation keyboard that turns what you say into clean, finished writing, in whatever app you are using. THE KEYBOARD The Vibe Typer keyboard has no letter keys. Switching to it is the whole gesture: it starts listening the moment it appears. Speak, tap to stop, and your words land in the field you were writing in, then you are handed straight back to your regular keyboard. Messages, mail, notes, documents, search bars: anywhere you can type, you can talk. MAGIC FORMATTER Speak messily. Get writing back. Before anything is typed, Magic Formatter rereads what you said, applies your spoken self-corrections ("actually, make that 3 PM"), drops the ums and filler, and fixes punctuation and capitalization. Give it standing instructions in your own words: "always use a concise style", "use British spelling", and it follows them on every dictation. Facts are guarded: names, numbers, dates and times never change. THE APP The keyboard does the talking; the companion app is where you sign in and make it yours: ⢠Dictate directly in the app and copy the result anywhere ⢠History: recent dictations kept on your device, never on our servers, with a word-by-word view of what Magic Formatter changed ⢠Custom dictionary: teach it names, jargon and product terms so they come out right every time ⢠Tone: choose how relaxed the writing sounds 99 LANGUAGES Speak any of 99 languages, or leave the language on Automatic and Vibe Typer detects the one you are using. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Audio is processed in memory to produce your transcript, then discarded. Recordings are never stored. Transcripts are not kept on our servers, and your audio and text are never used to train AI models. With no letter keys there are no keystrokes to log. Dictation history stays on your device, under your control. ABOUT FULL ACCESS iOS never lets a keyboard record audio, so the Vibe Typer app does the recording. The keyboard asks for Allow Full Access for one reason: to read your sign-in state and the finished transcript from the app's shared storage. That shared storage is its only data source. ONE ACCOUNT, EVERYWHERE Vibe Typer also runs on Linux, Windows and macOS. Sign in with the same account and your language, dictionary, tone and formatting settings follow you between your desktop and your phone. GETTING STARTED 1. Sign in with your email: a one-time code, no password. Signing in creates your free account. 2. Allow the microphone, then enable the Vibe Typer keyboard with Full Access in iOS Settings. 3. In any app, switch to the Vibe Typer keyboard and talk. Questions? We answer at vibetyper.com/support Privacy policy: vibetyper.com/privacy Terms: vibetyper.com/terms
