Talk. It's written down.

Dettato records a voice memo and turns it into text on your phone. Then it hands you a Markdown file you actually own.

Get it on Google Play

Android 13 and up. Free, with a one-time upgrade.

What Dettato does

Capture before it's gone.

One tap from a home-screen widget or a Quick Settings tile. Talk. Stop. It's saved.

Read it, don't relisten to it.

The transcript appears while you speak, and you can edit any word that came out wrong.

Keep the file.

Export as Markdown into your notes vault, or save the raw audio wherever you like.

It works with no signal

Transcription runs on your phone's own speech engine. Airplane mode, a basement, a plane at altitude: it still writes everything down. By default Dettato only ever uses the recognizer on your own phone, and if a language has no offline pack it saves the audio rather than sending your voice somewhere else.
