Get started on iOS
Scribe0 for iOS brings on-device transcription to the bedside. A compact Parakeet model runs on your iPhone’s Neural Engine — consult audio is processed on the phone and never uploaded.
Requirements
Section titled “Requirements”- iPhone 13 or later (A15 chip or newer)
- iOS 17 or later
- For fully on-device note drafting: iOS 26 with Apple Intelligence
Install
Section titled “Install”- Install TestFlight from the App Store.
- Open your Scribe0 invite link on the phone and accept.
- On first launch, grant microphone access and let the app download the speech model (~110 MB, one time).
Your first note
Section titled “Your first note”- Tap record and speak — text streams live as you talk.
- Stop, pick a prompt, and enhance. Drafting routes: on-device (Apple Intelligence), sovereign cloud (Amazon Bedrock, Australia), or OpenRouter.
- Share the finished note into any app with the share sheet, or copy it.
You can also import voice memos recorded on the phone and transcribe them the same way. Past notes live in the History tab, stored on-device.
Good to know
Section titled “Good to know”- The iPhone runs a smaller speech model (110M) than the desktop apps (0.6B) — excellent for clear dictation, slightly less forgiving of noisy rooms.
- Diarization (speaker labels) is supported.
- There is no sign-in and no cloud sync; notes stay on the phone.
