At its Worldwide Developers Conference, WWDC 2026, Apple launched a new systemwide dictation experience with its new Apple Intelligence model created based on Google’s Gemini on iOS 27.
The company said that the dictation experience is built into the keyboard and can correct spellings, punctuation, and capitalization, allowing the feature to work across apps.
AI-powered dictation apps have been very popular recently, including Wispr Flow, Willow, and Monolouge. These apps clean up filler words like “ums” and “Ahs” and format the text after transcribing based on context. The company started restricting some of these apps with iOS 26.4, where they needed extra steps to activate a session with keyboards for those apps.
