Open the original- What it measures
- The readme says the app downloads Whisper TFLite models, and it offers a compact English-only model and a larger multilingual one.
- What it does not show
- The readme says 'entirely offline' but does not describe the processing step by step. The row reads that wording as on-device recognition.
