Say It, Then Send It with Speech to Text (opens in new tab)

Writing on a phone remains difficult because typing is slow and native dictation produces messy transcripts. Grammarly Keyboard’s speech-to-text feature aims to solve this by converting natural speech into polished, send-ready text directly within any iOS app. It removes filler words, verbal corrections, and grammar errors while preserving the speaker’s tone and intent.

Polished Dictation Anywhere

• Speech-to-text is built into the Grammarly Keyboard.
• Users tap the microphone, speak naturally, and receive cleaned-up text in the active app.
• The feature supports multiple languages, accents, and speaking styles.
• Users can switch between dictation and typing or further edit text with Grammarly’s keyboard.
• Grammarly’s AI assistant is also available within the same keyboard.

Designed for Mobile Writing

• The feature targets frequent mobile writers, including professionals, students, and people capturing ideas while away from a desk.
• Noise reduction helps improve recording quality.
• Recording starts only when the user taps the microphone.
• An on-keyboard indicator and iOS’s orange status light show when the microphone is active.
• Audio is deleted after transcription and is not stored, linked to the user’s account, or used for model training.

How to Get Started

• Download Grammarly for iOS from the App Store.
• Add Grammarly under Settings → General → Keyboard → Keyboards → Add New Keyboard.
• Enable full access so the keyboard can operate across apps.
• Open any text field, tap the Grammarly microphone, and begin speaking.

Grammarly’s speech-to-text is presented as a practical alternative to raw phone dictation, especially for users who want fast, polished mobile messages without manual cleanup.
