Hovor: Voice to Text

Speak faster than you type. Hovor turns your voice into clean text, everywhere on iOS.

Speak instead of typing. Hovor turns your voice into clean, formatted text in seconds — in any app on iPhone and iPad.

— THE HOVOR KEYBOARD Dictate in Messages, Notes, Gmail, Slack, Telegram, ChatGPT, Safari — anywhere the system keyboard works. No app-switching: tap Start Hovor, speak, watch the text land in the field. Ukrainian and English layouts ready at the same time — switch UK ⇄ EN right inside the keyboard.

— THE KEYBOARD LEARNS WITH YOU As you type with the Hovor keyboard, the app silently captures your vocabulary — names, slang, brands, technical terms — and surfaces them under "Learned from keyboard" with a language tag (UK/EN). Your recognition model starts catching your words without any setup.

— SMART REPLACEMENTS WITH FUZZY MATCHING Build your own rules: "open ai → OpenAI", "btw → by the way", "color|colour|kolor → color". Hovor catches near-misses too — Sensitivity slider from "Stricter" to "Wider". Fix typos, enforce canonical spelling, preserve brand casing. Flip on "Exact match only" for any rule to pin names and precise terms so they never trigger on near-misses. Your voice always comes out the way you want it.

— PICK THE MODEL THAT FITS YOUR TASK • Hovor Cloud — fastest, Pro-included • Parakeet — on-device, audio never leaves the phone (NVIDIA, ~4 GB RAM) • Whisper — on-device, iPhone 13 Pro and newer • BYOK — connect your own OpenAI, Anthropic, Deepgram, ElevenLabs or any OpenAI-compatible URL key and pay the provider directly

If BYOK fails, automatic fallback to Hovor — you never lose a dictation.

— WORKFLOWS: STT × TONE × TRANSLATE Save pipelines per task: "Email professional", "Slack casual", "Coding". Long-press the Hovor pill — override the tone for one dictation only.

— MEETINGS WITH SPEAKER LABELS Record any meeting and Hovor automatically detects and labels each speaker. Read a clean per-speaker transcript, rename people, and copy the whole conversation or just one person's lines — all stored on-device.

— VOICE FINGERPRINT Enroll your voice once and Hovor ignores everyone else — useful in shared or noisy rooms. Fully on-device and opt-in.

— LIVE ACTIVITY & DYNAMIC ISLAND Watch your live word count on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, and stop a session without opening the app.

— SNIPPETS, DICTIONARY, HISTORY Reusable phrases — signature, address, PIN, canned reply — one voice command in any field. Private data is marked "local-only" and never leaves the device. Every dictation is saved on-device with search, edit, and export.

— SILENCE & NOISE FILTER Voice Activity Filter trims silence and background noise before transcription. Tune sensitivity if quiet or whispered speech is being cut.

— STATS & GAMIFICATION Words per minute, best WPM, day streaks, weekly challenges, activity heatmap. Watch your speed grow over time.

— PRIVACY BY DEFAULT Audio is processed and immediately discarded on our servers. Nothing retained. BYOK keys live only in this device's iOS Keychain — never synced to iCloud, never sent to Hovor. On-device mode keeps audio fully off the network.

— ONE ACCOUNT, UP TO 5 DEVICES Pro syncs dictionary, snippets, workflows, stats, and the keyboard vocabulary across iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Windows.

— PRICING Free: 2,000 words/week, 20 replacements, 20 snippets, 3 workflows, 30+ languages Pro: $11.99/mo or $89.99/yr — unlimited server dictation, translate, full sync One-time (lifetime): • BYOK Unlock — bring your own AI provider keys • Local Unlock — unlimited offline dictation • Local + BYOK Bundle — both at a lower price

Family Sharing supported for every one-time purchase.

Hovor — for everyone who speaks faster than they type. Try it once and you won't go back to the keyboard.
