Voice Bubble — Hands-free typing

A floating mic bubble that types into any field by voice. Built for hands-free / one-handed use.

Voice Bubble adds a small, draggable microphone bubble to every page. Click any text box, press the mic, and just talk — your words are typed straight into that field, live. Built for hands-free and one-handed use, but handy any time talking is faster than typing. WHAT IT DOES • Types into whatever field you click — search boxes, forms, textareas, and rich editors (works with modern web apps like Gmail, Docs-style editors, chat apps). • A floating bubble you can drag anywhere; it remembers where you put it. • 18 languages, switchable on the fly. • Auto-stops after a configurable pause, so you don't have to reach for "stop". • Append to a field or replace it on each dictation. • Per-field buttons: record, clear the field, and release it. HOW IT WORKS Voice Bubble uses your browser's built-in speech recognition. The microphone is requested once and then works on every site — no re-prompting as you move around the web. PRIVACY • No accounts, no tracking, no servers of our own. • Your settings (language, pause time, mode) and the bubble's position are stored locally in your browser. • Speech is transcribed by the browser's built-in Web Speech API, which sends audio to the browser vendor's speech service for recognition — the same service any website's voice input uses. Voice Bubble adds nothing on top of that. WHY IT EXISTS I built Voice Bubble for my girlfriend after she dislocated a finger and spent weeks with her arm in a cast, which made typing slow and painful. I hope it makes working at a laptop a little easier for you too. TIP Click a text box, press the mic in the bubble (or the small record button that appears inside the field), and start talking.
