Your phone becomes an encrypted wireless dictation microphone for any computer. Speak into the phone; the words appear on your screen. Below are the questions people actually ask.

Getting started

How do I connect my phone to my computer?

  1. On your computer, open tebchart.com/dictate in any browser. No login, no download, no account. A QR code appears straight away.
  2. In the tebDictate app, tap Dictate to your computer.
  3. Point your phone's camera at the QR code on screen.
  4. Start speaking. Your words appear on the computer, at the cursor.

Do I need to install anything on the computer?

No. The computer only needs a web browser. Nothing is installed, and nothing runs after you close the tab.

Can I use it without a computer at all?

Yes. Open the Dictation pad from the home screen and dictate straight into your phone, then copy or share the text. This uses exactly the same speech engine as the paired mode.

Troubleshooting

It says my language has no on-device speech pack

tebDictate only ever transcribes on your own device. When a language has no on-device pack installed, it stops and tells you, rather than quietly sending your audio to a server. To fix it, install the offline speech data for that language in your phone's own settings, or choose a different language in tebDictate's settings. You can always type instead.

  • iPhone: Settings ▸ General ▸ Keyboard ▸ Enable Dictation, and add the language under Dictation Languages.
  • Android: Settings ▸ System ▸ Languages & input ▸ On-device speech recognition, then add the language.

The QR code will not scan

Make sure the camera permission is granted, the screen is not too dim, and the whole code is inside the frame. If your computer's browser is behind a strict corporate proxy, ask your IT team to allow tebchart.com.

Pairing timed out

Pairing sessions expire after about 15 minutes for security. Reload the page on your computer for a fresh code and pair again.

Subscription

How do I manage or cancel my subscription?

Subscriptions are billed and managed entirely through the App Store or Google Play, never by us directly. On iPhone: Settings ▸ [your name] ▸ Subscriptions. On Android: Play Store ▸ Menu ▸ Subscriptions.

Do I need an account?

No. tebDictate has no sign-up and no login, and we hold no user records.

How do I delete my data?

Everything tebDictate keeps is on your own phone. Erase it from Settings ▸ Privacy & data ▸ Delete all history, or delete the app to remove all of it.

A note for clinicians

tebDictate is a dictation tool. It does not provide medical advice, diagnosis or treatment, and its Interpreter is a communication aid that does not replace a professional medical interpreter. You remain responsible for reviewing anything it transcribes before it becomes part of a record.
