Questions about yap
What is yap?
yap is a mobile keyboard application for iOS that lets users speak and have their speech transcribed and rewritten into text on their clipboard. It operates as an additional keyboard within existing apps like WhatsApp and offers rewriting modes including boss, casual, roast, rizz, and hindi. The app is currently available for free during a beta period.
How does the recording and pasting process work?
The app works by having the user press the yap key on their keyboard, talk or ramble, and then paste the cleaned-up version which is already on the clipboard in the mode they picked. It sits inside the keyboard you already use so the message never leaves the app you are in, requiring no app switch or new tab.
What rewriting modes and custom features are available?
yap offers several rewriting modes including boss for full sentences with real punctuation, casual for untangled voice, roast for sharper tones, rizz for warmer shorter messages, and hindi for Hinglish to clean Devanagari conversion. Users can also create and save custom tone presets described in a sentence.
Where does the keyboard integrate and what apps does it support?
The keyboard lives where you already type by installing one key to your existing keyboard, and everything you've ever said sits behind it searchable and pinnable. It works in every app including WhatsApp, Slack, Gmail, comments, and forms.
How does yap handle Hinglish and mixed-language speech?
yap keeps the sentence you meant when most dictation tools hear Hinglish and pick a side, deciding how it should be spelled instead. For example, it converts 'arre yaar kal ka plan cancel karna padega' into proper Hindi script.
What features help with frequently used phrases and history?
Some reviewers say the app allows users to pin lines they send constantly such as addresses, UPI details, or standing excuses for one-tap access. Users can also search a phrase from three weeks ago and paste it again.
Who is yap specifically designed for?
The app is designed for managers, clients, anyone who screenshots things, group chats, long-suffering friends, and people who are late again. It also suits those who want to speak messy and have it come out right.
How does yap adapt tone for different audiences?
The website states that yap is built to speak how you actually speak, keeping every register and making the same sentence sound different depending on who is reading it. Users can pick the room before they paste or set their own.
How does the history and deletion system work?
The app includes a searchable, pinnable history of past recordings where transcripts are text, not audio, allowing users to delete any of them, any time. It also features a hold-to-yap mechanism where you hold it down and release when done.
What are the technical requirements for installation?
The keyboard adds one key to your keyboard and everything you've ever said sits behind it, making it possible to search and pin flat addresses or other repeated text.

The official website of yap is gottayap.com.
