Can we move away from the habit of just copy-pasting clickbait video titles with no information as to what they're actually about? Lemmy gives you a description field, you have the power to summarise videos which should really be blog posts!
I'm not watching a video for something that can be 3 lines of text.
I'm supposing this is some speech to text? It's completely on device? If it's not on device, i don't see many difference between giving data to google and giving the same exact data to somebody else.
Yes, it is text to speech engine that works completely on the device. Actually, I use it right now to write this.
I'm using it to type this comment and I REALLY like it! But I will say it tries to do punctuation for me, and that drives me nuts.
(Video is about an open source voice to text, input method for Android, by the way.)
What's the name of it? Then I don't have to watch a video
Futo Voice Input, and there are links in the post ☺️ Weirdly, it doesn't seem to be on Fdroid (yet?), but you can install it as an APK from their website.
I'm going with yet. They do mention an F-Droid build on GitLab.
There are four build flavors:
dev- for development, includes Play Store billing and all payment methods, auto-update, etcplayStore- Play Store build, does not include auto-update and only includes Play Store billingstandalone- does not include Play Store billing library, includes auto-updatefDroid- does not include Play Store billing nor auto-update
Gotcha. I missed that on their GitLab page, Thank you for pointing it out to me!
I figure if I lurk here someone will come along and breakdown whether this is legit to install or not
Louis Rossmann is a respectable person in the open source/right to repair arena
Right on, that helps to know, thank you
Howsabout you try it and let us all know if your phone gets hot?
I tried it on my device... Works great!
But it's just a Voice to Text utility at the moment, so only where there's a mic icon for said VTT applications. But they're working on integration with open source keyboards and also suggested the possibility that they'd make one of their own keyboards.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
