So I was looking for an app for voice input, Since there would be times when typing would be inconvenient, Such as when Walking outside, But I could never stomach using google's voicevoice assistant.
I found FUTU short while ago, and it felt very polished. In fact, I wrote most of this comment using it.
It's a voice-to-text plugin. You can use it with a keyboard that triggers voice input, such as HeliBoard. Unfortunately, it does not work with Google Keyboard, since they integrate their own voice...

I've been using this combination for the last two weeks. Futo is nice because it enters punctuation into sentences, unlike Google Keyboard. For HeliBoard, you'll want to set up the Swipe library and configure the shortcuts at the top so the microphone button is always present (long press on it when reordering shortcuts).

The website doesn't have a lot of info, is this solely for text input?

In addition, you can make it the system voice app, so pressing the mic button in firefox will trigger FUTO.

Great! How much is it? I couldn’t find it on the website and it’s strange to have to download an app just to figure out how much it is!
