FAQ
Does LiveSTT require an active internet connection to transcribe speech?
No. LiveSTT processes 100% of speech-to-text offline on-device, leveraging local neural engine weights. Transcriptions and live translations are calculated entirely locally, making it highly secure and reliable even in zero-connectivity environments like airplanes or remote locations.
What powers the high transcription accuracy of LiveSTT?
LiveSTT integrates advanced Apple Speech Analyzer frameworks under iOS 26 alongside local SenseVoice-Small models. This hybrid local execution achieves up to 98% accuracy on clear speech and operates at up to 3x real-time speeds, providing swift and precise transcriptions.
