Aqua Voice for iOS
Aqua Voice for iOS is live. It lets you write and edit text using only your voice anywhere.
The key features are:

  • Ultra Low Latency
  • All New Model (Avalon 1.5)
  • Voice Edit Mode
    Aqua for iOS uses an all new model backend that's more accurate, contextually aware, and faster. It's also more noise robust, which is perfect for using your phone on the subway or other high-noise environments.
