# Building an AI-Powered Note-Taking App in React Native — Pa…

## Summary

Part 4 of a series on building an AI-powered note-taking app in React Native adds on-device automatic speech recognition (ASR) using React Native ExecuTorch and the Whisper Tiny EN model. The tutorial covers configuring microphone permissions, initializing the SpeechToTextModule with streaming audio capture via React Native Audio API, and handling start/stop transcription with real-time committed and non-committed text updates. The result is a fully private, offline, low-latency voice input feature with no API costs.
