Error code LT-MDL-01

No speech model installed yet

LocalType does its speech recognition on the phone itself, so it needs a speech model. Without one there is nothing to recognise with.

  1. 1 Open the LocalType app.
  2. 2 Go to Speech model and pick one. The app suggests the one that suits your phone.
  3. 3 Wait for the download to finish. It carries on in the background.

The model is downloaded once. After that voice typing works without an internet connection.

Still stuck? Send us the diagnostic report from the app — it tells us your device, your model and what went wrong, without any of your text.

LocalType is in testing
