Getting started

Open yulu. When prompted, allow microphone, reminders, and calendar access. Tap and hold the blue circle, speak in Chinese, English, or both, then release. yulu transcribes your speech, extracts the action, and lets you save it to Reminders / Calendar or share it to any iOS app via the share sheet.

Common questions

The first launch takes a while.

yulu downloads WhisperKit's speech recognition model (~500 MB) on first launch. This happens once. After that, launches are instant.

My Chinese isn't being transcribed correctly.

Edit the Transcript field directly before extraction. The field is fully editable. Tap "Re-extract from edited transcript" once you've fixed any acoustic mishears.

The extracted title is too verbose, or the date is missing.

Every field in the Extracted section is editable inline — Kind picker, Title, Date toggle, DatePicker, Notes. Adjust whatever is wrong before tapping Save or Share.

How do I send a capture to LINE / Slack / Gmail / WeChat?

After extraction, tap "Share to…". This opens the iOS share sheet, which lists every app that can accept text. Pick your destination.

What's "cloud fallback" in Settings?

When the on-device model is uncertain about a complex sentence (e.g. holiday names, abstract time expressions), yulu can route the transcript to a cloud LLM for better accuracy. Two options:

Default is Off — yulu stays fully on-device unless you opt in.

How do I delete a capture?

In the History section, long-press the row → Delete.

Can I use yulu without an internet connection?

Yes, when Provider is set to Off. WhisperKit and Apple Foundation Models both run on-device.

Does yulu work with Siri or Action Button?

yulu registers an AppShortcut, so you can configure your iPhone 15 Pro+ Action Button to "Open yulu" via Settings → Action Button → Shortcut → Open yulu. Auto-record on launch is not yet supported.
