Google Docs
Google Docs on a phone is where good intentions go to die: the document is right there, and typing more than a sentence into it is miserable. Tap the bubble, talk, and the paragraph lands where your cursor was.
Docs
A sentence of a draft, spoken into the document that was already open.
Why here
For a one-line message, typing and speaking are close enough. For a paragraph the gap is enormous — most people speak several times faster than they thumb-type, and the difference compounds over a draft. A commute becomes the first version of something, instead of a note reminding you to write it later.
A first draft you spoke is still a first draft. Speakline gets the words down; the editing is still yours, which is the honest division of labour.
How it gets there
Speakline isn't a keyboard, so there's no input method to switch to and back from mid-sentence. The bubble floats above Docs and the text is inserted at the cursor you left in the document. If the field refuses typed text, the words go to your clipboard instead and Speakline tells you so, so a long dictation is never lost.
Questions
Long enough for a paragraph at a time. What's capped is your monthly allowance rather than any one dictation: 120 minutes across the seven-day trial, then 15 minutes a calendar month free, or unlimited on Pro.
No. Speakline inserts text, with punctuation and capitalisation. Structure and formatting are things you apply in Docs yourself.
Yes. Speakline works in any Android app with a text field, so Google Docs is an example rather than a requirement.
Yes, in any of the thirty Speakline transcribes. It writes what you said in the language you said it, and does not translate.
Also
Google Docs is one example, not a supported-apps list. The same bubble works in Notion, Gmail, Slack, WhatsApp and Messages. The main page has a 40-second tour.
