Open Settings → Preferences → Language I speak. The list has a search box.
Which one to pick
- Detect as I speak: fine if you speak one language per note. It can mix up close languages, so pick yours if it guesses wrong.
- One language (Hindi, Spanish, Japanese…): the note is written in that language's own script.
- Hindi + English (Hinglish): for mixing Hindi and English. The note comes back entirely in Roman letters, the way you would type it in a chat: Kal subah mujhe bank jana hai, then the client meeting at 3 pm.
- Language pairs (Tamil + English, Bengali + Hindi, and every other pair of Indian languages): the same as Hinglish, for your two languages. Everything comes back in Roman letters.
Language pairs need the latest version of the app.
Good to know
- The setting applies to new recordings. Notes you already have keep their text, so record again after changing it.
- A note that switches between three or more languages is not supported yet. See the known issue.
- Names and brand words come out better once they are in your vocabulary.
