AI TranscribeTurkish transcription on iPhone: audio to text
You have a Turkish recording on your iPhone — a voice note, a meeting, an interview, a lecture — and you need it as text.
Short answer: AI Transcribe transcribes Turkish directly on iPhone: record in the app or import an audio/video file up to 3 hours, and the Turkish transcript appears with timestamps. Language detection is automatic, so mixed-language recordings don’t need any setup.

How to transcribe Turkish audio on iPhone
- Open AI Transcribe and record live, or tap Import to pick an audio or video file (any common format — m4a, mp3, wav, opus, mp4).
- Leave the language on Auto Detect (or select Turkish explicitly).
- The transcript is generated in minutes, with timestamps.
- From the transcript: Summarize, extract to-dos, or Translate — for example, transcribe in Turkish and read the summary in English.
What about Apple’s built-in transcription?
Apple’s built-in Voice Memos transcription does not support Turkish — its language list covers about 10 languages (English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, French, German, Japanese, Korean and Chinese). For Turkish audio on iPhone, a transcription app is the practical route.
Frequently asked questions
Do I have to set the language before recording? No — automatic language detection recognizes Turkish on its own. Selecting it manually is optional.
Can I translate the Turkish transcript? Yes. The built-in Translate tool converts the transcript into any of 46 languages, right after transcription.
How accurate is Turkish transcription? With clear audio, modern speech models are near-human for Turkish. Background noise and heavy crosstalk are the main accuracy killers, in any language.
What does it cost? Free to download and try; the Pro subscription (weekly or annual) unlocks up to 3 hours of transcription per day.
