A little help from the herd
Let’s get you
uttering.
Utter is coming soon for iPhone. Here’s how it works, and where to find help.
Need a hand?
Email hello@useutter.app. You’ll hear from Sam, the person making Utter.
For a technical problem, include your iPhone model, iOS version, Utter version, and what happened. Please leave private messages and recordings out of your email unless you choose to share them.
Open Utter in Messages
Open a conversation in Apple’s Messages app, tap +, then choose Utter. Wait for Listening before you speak. Tap Done to add the transcription at the cursor in your draft. Utter never presses Send for you.
Cancel discards the recording. You can start listening again without closing the panel.
Move Utter to the top
In the Messages + menu, press and hold Utter, then drag it up so it’s easy to reach next time.
Microphone not working?
Allow microphone access when iOS asks. You can change it later in Settings → Privacy & Security → Microphone. Make sure Utter is allowed, then reopen it in Messages.
If the panel gets stuck, close and reopen Messages. If that doesn’t help, email the details above.
Does it need a download or an account?
The speech model is included with Utter. Dictation runs entirely on your iPhone, with no separate account or internet connection required. Utter requires iOS 26 or later; an Apple Intelligence device is not required.
Free trial and lifetime unlock
The download includes ten successful transcriptions per device. Canceled recordings and failed transcriptions don’t use a free turn. The lifetime unlock is a one-time purchase, planned at $3 USD; your App Store shows the price in your region.
The unlock belongs to the Apple Account used to purchase it. Open the Utter app and choose Restore Purchases to restore it on another supported device signed into that account. Buying and restoring require an internet connection; dictation works offline.
Switching scenes
Tap anywhere on a scene to switch to the next one. In the Utter app, turn Cycle scenes off to keep your chosen scene each time you use Utter.
