Kolibri
Voice input for any Android field: you speak, and the field already holds finished text.
What happens to what you say
Spoken
So, um, we kind of filed the appeal, mm, yesterday evening.
Inserted in the field
We filed the appeal yesterday evening.
These pairs come from the check set the app is verified against on every build.
What it does
- Adds punctuation and capitalization.
- Removes fillers and repetitions.
- Resolves self-corrections: “on Friday, no, on Thursday” leaves Thursday.
- Writes numbers, dates and amounts as digits; case numbers in their court format.
- Understands spoken commands: “period”, “colon”, “new line”.
- Rewrites a selection: select text and say what it should become.
- Hold the button while you speak, or tap once for a long dictation.
How it works
The button appears next to the keyboard when your cursor is in a text field. To show it and insert text, the app uses the Android accessibility service: you switch it on yourself, after a separate disclosure inside the app. The service does not read the screen, never appears in password fields, and does nothing unless you tap.
Speech goes to the dictation.trust.moscow server in Russia, where recognition and cleanup happen. About 0.8 s passes between stop and finished text: phrases are sent for recognition while you are still speaking, not after.
What happens to your data
Voice recordings are not stored anywhere. Text is not stored on the server — it exists only while a single dictation is processed. Dictation history stays on your phone and is off by default.
No ads, no third-party analytics, no data sold.
