Google didn’t offer a timeline for bringing it to other devices. There is a watchface I have called voice recorder watch from the galaxy store.

The app was introduced among a series of improvements coming to Google’s new smartphone, the Pixel 4. It only makes sense that the voice recorder app itself would receive a similar upgrade. And at Google I/O, it rolled out live transcription and captioning in Android, as accessibility improvements.
The company this spring introduced a new speech recognition system that works instantly and offline, which first launched in its keyboard app, Gboard, on Pixel devices. The voice recorder app is among many advances Google has made recently in terms of voice processing and real-time transcriptions. In the search results, every instance the search term was spoken was highlighted in the playback bar so you can tap to go right to the part of the recording you need.Ĭurrently, Recorder works in English but Google says more languages are coming in the future. The app also offers an advanced search functionality where you’ll be able to search for sounds, words or phrases. It’s unclear how well the Recorder app will fare when it’s not hooked up directly to an audio source, as it likely was for this event, but rather placed on a tabletop or used in a noisier environment. In real-world environments, voice transcription apps often fail because of background noise or bandwidth issues. The Recorder app was demonstrated onstage during the event, live, and was offering - from what was shown - an error-free transcription. “This means you can transcribe meetings, lectures, interviews, or anything you want to save,” said Sabrina Ellis, VP of Product Management at Google.
