Voice typing in
Instagram.
Captions, comments and DMs are all typing, and all of it comes out better said. Dictate the caption while the moment is still fresh, then answer the DMs at conversation speed instead of thumb speed.
Three steps, once
1. Install.
Four steps, once, on Android or Windows. No account and no card for the free plan.
2. Open Instagram.
Tap into the caption, a comment, or a DM. All ordinary text fields.
3. Press and talk.
Hold the key on Windows, tap the bubble on Android, then talk like a person. Whole sentences land at the cursor about two seconds after you pause.
A spoken caption sounds like you, because it is you. Reading it back once beats retyping it three times trying to sound natural.
Instagram gets text, never audio.
Fastspoken types through the keyboard layer on Android and at the cursor on Windows, so Instagram receives ordinary typed characters, exactly as if your hands had done it. On the free plan speech becomes text on the machine in front of you: 0 words of what you said sent to a server, no account, and it still works with the wifi off. The typing is free because it runs on your machine, which is the same reason nothing you say leaves it. See the whole machine.
No server in the loop on the free plan.
Questions about Instagram
Does it work in captions, comments and DMs?
Yes, all three are ordinary text fields, and Fastspoken types wherever the cursor is.
Do hashtags work?
Say the words, then add the hashtags by hand. Names and spellings you use constantly can live in your on-device dictionary, so they land right every time.
