PocketVoice

Pocket Voice turns your voice into text in any app on your phone. Tap the floating bubble, speak naturally, and your words are dropped straight into the text field you were typing in — whether that's a message, an email, a search box, a note, or a comment.

Stop thumb-typing long replies. Talk instead.

WHO IT'S FOR

Pocket Voice is a productivity tool for anyone who would rather speak than type — people sending long messages on the go, writers capturing thoughts hands-free, multitaskers replying while cooking or driving (hands-free, please), and people who simply find dictation faster than tapping a small keyboard. It is also useful for people who find on-screen typing uncomfortable, including those with hand fatigue, RSI, or limited dexterity, but the app is built for general productivity, not as a medical or assistive device.

HOW POCKET VOICE USES THE ANDROID ACCESSIBILITY SERVICE

Pocket Voice registers a single Accessibility Service called "Pocket Voice Dictation" in your system Accessibility settings. Here is exactly what it does and does not do.

What the service does:

Detects which text field you currently have focused (so it knows where to put your words)

Detects when the on-screen keyboard opens, moves, or closes (so the floating bubble can reposition out of the way)

Inserts your dictated text into that focused text field after you finish speaking and confirm, using the standard Android accessibility text actions (ACTION_SET_TEXT, with a clipboard-paste fallback for apps that don't accept it)

Hides the bubble automatically inside banking and other sensitive apps

What the service does NOT do:

It does not read, log, or transmit any screen content from other apps

It does not record audio — your microphone is only used by the recorder when you tap to dictate, not by the accessibility service

It does not capture keystrokes, passwords, payment fields, banking fields, or PINs

It does not perform autonomous actions, click buttons on your behalf, send messages for you, or act as an agent

It does not change your device settings

It does not run when you are not dictating — it stays passive until you press the bubble

Data handling: text you dictate is sent to a speech recognition service over HTTPS to be converted into words, then inserted into the field you chose. The Accessibility Service itself does not store or transmit the contents of any text field — it only reads the current text of the field you are dictating into so it can splice your new words in at the cursor, and writes the result back.

You explicitly grant the Accessibility permission yourself in Android Settings the first time you set up Pocket Voice, and you can disable or revoke it at any time from Settings > Accessibility > Pocket Voice Dictation. The app will stop inserting text the moment you do.
