About WhispyFlow
WhispyFlow lets you talk instead of type — and listen instead of strain your eyes.
Hold a shortcut, speak naturally, and your words appear in whatever you’re writing: email, docs, chat, notes, forms. Select any text and hear it read aloud in a clear voice. Fast, private, and free — no subscription.
Why install it • Write faster without breaking your flow • Catch typos and awkward phrasing by hearing your writing out loud • Stay focused — dictate and keep typing in the same place • Use it anywhere on the web, not just one app • Keep your voice on your computer — no account required for core use
What you can do • Hold-to-talk dictation into almost any text field • Read selected text aloud (great for proofreading and long pages) • Switch dictation language when you need it • Choose how read-aloud should sound — including English or Chinese output • Hide the on-page mic button if you only want keyboard shortcuts
Everyday shortcuts • Dictate: hold ⌘⇧U (Mac) or Ctrl+Shift+U (Windows/Linux), speak, release • Read aloud: select text, then ⌘⇧Space / Ctrl+Shift+Space • Stop speaking: ⌘⇧X / Ctrl+Shift+X (or Escape)
Google Drive PDFs If you’re reading a PDF in Google Drive, select the text, press the read-aloud shortcut, then press ⌘C once when prompted. Drive doesn’t share highlights the normal way — that extra copy step unlocks it.
Built for real work Whether you’re drafting emails, editing resumes, studying, or clearing a backlog of messages, WhispyFlow is meant to feel light and immediate: speak, release, keep going.
Free to install. No subscription wall. Pin it, try a sentence, and see if your writing gets easier.
