Quick answer:<\/strong> On Android, open Gboard settings, go to Languages, add “Hindi, Devanagari”, then tap the mic on the keyboard and speak. On a computer, open a Google Doc in Chrome, choose Tools, then Voice typing, pick Hindi, and click the mic. On iPhone, use Gboard’s mic or Apple Dictation with a Hindi keyboard.<\/p><\/div>\n\n Google voice typing is the speech to text feature built into Google’s keyboard and some Google apps. Speech to text means software that listens to your voice and turns it into written words.<\/p>\n You will find it in three main places:<\/p>\n Hindi has been supported for years. Google’s India blog noted in August 2017 that Gboard added voice input for eight more Indian languages, and that Hindi already had it.<\/p>\n\n Many Android phones come with Gboard. If yours uses a different keyboard, install Gboard from the Play Store first and set it as your default keyboard.<\/p>\n These menu names come from Google’s Gboard setup help page<\/a>. Phone makers sometimes move things around, so on a Samsung or Xiaomi phone the path to keyboard settings can look slightly different.<\/p>\n Tip:<\/strong> To keep the mic listening for longer messages, double-tap the mic key. Tap it again or close the keyboard when you are done.<\/p><\/div>\n\n Pixel 6 and newer phones have “advanced voice typing” with extra features like auto punctuation and voice editing commands. But Google’s help page lists only English, French, German, Italian, Japanese and Spanish for these features. So for Hindi, you get standard voice typing, which still works well for clear speech.<\/p>\n\n On iPhone you have two routes. Both work well, and you can keep both installed.<\/p>\n\n Gboard on iPhone supports up to three languages at a time. Its App Store listing also says voice input from Gboard’s mic is sent to Google for transcription, so keep that in mind for private notes.<\/p>\n\n Apple’s own dictation also supports Hindi. Apple’s iOS feature availability page<\/a> lists Hindi (India) under Dictation. Add a Hindi keyboard in Settings, then General, Keyboard, Keyboards. Make sure dictation is turned on in the same Keyboard settings. Then switch to the Hindi keyboard and tap the mic key.<\/p>\n The same Apple page shows Hindi is not on the on-device dictation list, so you need an internet connection for it.<\/p>\n\n On a laptop or desktop, Google Docs is the simplest free option. According to the official Docs help page on dictation<\/a>, it works in Chrome, Edge and Safari, and Hindi is on the supported list.<\/p>\n Note:<\/strong> Voice commands like “select paragraph” work only in English in Google Docs. Spoken punctuation like “comma” and “new line” may also not work in every language, so plan to add some punctuation by hand.<\/p><\/div>\n Then copy the text into WhatsApp Web, an email or your script file.<\/p>\n\n This is where many people get stuck. Hindi voice typing usually writes in Devanagari script. But many creators and young users write Hindi in English letters, often called Hinglish or romanised Hindi.<\/p>\nWhat is Google voice typing?<\/h2>\n
