You use it where you already type: press a shortcut on macOS, speak, and get cleaned text copied or pasted without sending audio to a hosted speech API. On mobile, Local Whisper is both the recorder app and the keyboard. Record in the app, keep model packs and history on the device, then use the keyboard to bring modes, punctuation, and Local Whisper actions into other text fields. Large model-pack installs retry transient download failures and verify files before a pack is marked ready. iOS transcribes locally with WhisperKit/Core ML or Apple's SpeechTranscriber on supported iOS 26 devices. Android records local WAV audio and transcribes on-device through sherpa onnx ; Parakeet-TDT v3 INT8 ONNX is the default Android pack, and Qwen3-ASR 0.6B INT8 ONNX is the broader multilingual pack. There is no cloud speech fallback. Download the models once, then run them locally. Built-in runtime paths stay on-device or localhost. Configure LM Studio with a private LAN server only when you want that setup. No hosted speech API. No account. No telemetry. No transcript upload. Double-tap Right Option from any app to start recording and copy the result. Hold Right Option to record until release, then paste the result at the current cursor. Use the menu bar for status, engine and grammar switching, history, settings, updates, and service controls.
