How to talk to SideCoach via voice? Can it speak back?

Learn how to talk to your AI coach via voice and have it speak back.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Yes! In fact, we encourage you to speak to your coach using your voice. We believe rambling is the most effective way to lay out your raw and unfiltered thoughts to your coach.

Plus, we speak much faster than we type.

Speaking to Your Coach

SideCoach offers both text and voice messaging. To send a voice message, tap the microphone icon in your conversation with SideCoach and speak your message. SideCoach will transcribe what you say and respond accordingly.

Hearing Your Coach's Response

We recommend reading rather than listening to your coach's responses. We read faster than we listen.

Hearing your coach's replies might be helpful when you're on the go or cannot look at your screen.

Listen to Specific Message

To hear SideCoach speak back for a particular reply, tap the speaker icon next to that message to generate a one‑off voice response.

Automatic Voice Mode

If you want all new messages from your coach to be read aloud automatically, you can enable the auto‑voice toggle in your conversation. Tap the speaker icon near the main user voice input record button.

After turning on auto‑voice, every future message from SideCoach will be delivered both in text and via voice.
