Just wanted to say what a truly excellent app and the feature where it can learn words is beyond useful. Also beautifully designed.
Thanks so much for making such a great TTS app — this was literally my favourite app of 2025 (and probably most used).
Pipit is awesome. I'm constantly evaluating it against some of the others. Its much better in speed and overall interface.
I absolutely love the app! I've tried so many dictation apps before... This works wonderfully. It's amazing what you can achieve with such a small model.
First of all, this is really good and it's much faster than I even thought. I feel like this app itself is more fluid.
I like the way it works. Being able to trigger either mode with the same hotkey is very convenient and intuitive!
L'application est ultra rapide, bien conçue. Bravo et merci une fois encore pour cet excellent travail.
You've got an awesome tool here!!!
I've been using Pipit for nearly 30 days and I'm really enthusiastic.
Well done, honestly. And thank you so much for making it free.
