Apps to Record Students Reading
Apps to Record Students Reading help teachers hear every student without sitting with each one. WriteVoice records a student reading aloud and turns it into a dated, written transcript you can review later.
You skim text instead of scrubbing through audio files, so checking a class set takes minutes.
It runs on iPad, iPhone, and the web, and it is free to start.

Check a class set of readings without the audio pile-up
Audio-only recordings mean listening to every file from start to finish.
With a transcript, you can see how far each student read and count the words read in the time given.
Notes are saved by date, so you can compare a student's reading in September with their reading in December.

Start CreatingFrequently asked questions
Is the transcript word for word?
Close to it, but the AI tidies grammar and punctuation, so small slips can be smoothed over. For error analysis, listen while the student reads, and use the transcript for word counts and reading logs.
Is student audio stored?
No. Audio is processed in real time and deleted right away, so only the text is kept in your notes.
Can students record at home?
Yes. Students can record on a family iPhone or iPad, or in a web browser, and the text syncs to their notes.
How does WriteVoice work?
You speak, and WriteVoice turns your voice into text. The AI removes filler words, fixes grammar and punctuation, and formats the result for you.
Do I need to clean up the text after?
Usually not. WriteVoice returns clean, formatted text with up to 99% accuracy, so most of the time it is ready to use as is.
Which apps does it work in?
It works in any app on your phone through the WriteVoice keyboard. Dictate into email, messages, notes, docs, and chat.
How accurate is it?
