Samsung Notes.
Samsung Notes blocks accessibility tools from typing into the note body, which is why most dictation apps quietly fail there. Fastspoken types through the keyboard layer instead, the one path Notes accepts, so the whole note can be spoken.
Three steps, once
1. Install.
Four steps, once, on Android or Windows. No account and no card for the free plan.
2. Open Samsung Notes.
Open a note and tap into the title, the body, or a checklist item.
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.
This page exists because Notes is the app that breaks other tools. Typing at the keyboard layer is not a workaround here, it is the design, and it is the same reason your words never need a server.
Private in Samsung Notes, by architecture.
Fastspoken types through the keyboard layer on Android and at the cursor on Windows, so Samsung Notes 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 Samsung Notes
Why do other dictation apps fail in Samsung Notes?
The note body opts out of accessibility injection, so tools that type through accessibility cannot reach it. Ordinary keyboard input still works, and that is the layer Fastspoken uses.
Does it work in checklists and titles?
Anywhere Notes shows a cursor. Title, body, checklist items, all normal text fields to a keyboard.
