Beta

Try LocalType before it launches

LocalType is still being tested. Android phones differ enormously in how they handle audio and how much they can run locally, which is exactly what we need testers for.

What would help most

A range of phones

Especially older or less common devices, where local speech models are hardest to run well.

Languages other than English

Accuracy varies per language, and we would rather hear about it from you than find out after launch.

Real everyday use

Noisy rooms, Bluetooth headsets, long messages, switching between languages from one message to the next.

Sign up

We need your name and the Google account email from your phone. The rest just helps us see which devices we have covered.

This has to be the email of the Google account on your phone. The test runs through Google Play, so that is where the invitation lands. A Gmail address works, and so does any other address tied to a Google account. We only use it to contact you about the beta, and you can ask us to remove it at any time.
