Google just dropped a new AI dictation app on iOS, and it looks like Android is coming soon

Google just released a brand new offline-first dictation app called Google AI Edge Eloquent. It is currently available on iOS and is designed to take on the growing market of AI-powered transcription services like Wispr Flow. It offers a surprisingly robust set of features completely for free and it looks like it’s coming to Android soon, too.

Once you download the app’s Gemma-based models, you can start dictating entirely on your device. The app shows a live transcription as you speak, and when you hit pause, it automatically filters out filler words like “um” and “ah” to polish your text. From there, you have options below the transcript to transform the text into formats like key points, formal, short, or long.

You can keep the app strictly offline for local-only processing, but there is also a cloud mode that utilizes Gemini models for heavier text cleanup. The app even allows you to import specific keywords, names, and jargon from your Gmail account or manually add your own custom words so it never mishears your frequent vocabulary. It also keeps a detailed history of your transcription sessions, showing your words-per-minute speed and total word count.

The Android version is likely coming soon

While the app is currently only available on Apple devices, there is a lot of evidence pointing to an Android version being right around the corner. Interestingly, the App Store description heavily references an upcoming Android release and its seamless system integration. According to the description, Android users will be able to set Eloquent as their default keyboard for system-wide access across any text field, and it mentions a floating button feature that will allow for easy access to transcription from anywhere.

Also, while I was researching this article, I noticed there was a prominent “Download for Android” button sitting right at the top of the page. It was inactive, but it was a clear sign that a Google Play Store launch was imminent.

That button has now completely vanished from the site. It seems whoever handles the site for this experimental app realized the button was pushed live a bit too early and quickly pulled it down. So, I would bet the Android version is coming soon!
