AICHE +Xcode Integration

Voice input for iOS development

Speak your code documentation directly into Xcode.

Start Documenting
Works on:
macOS

The short answer: open Xcode, position your cursor in a comment block or markdown documentation file, press ⌃+⌥+R, speak for 30-50 seconds, and AICHE inserts the transcribed documentation where your cursor sits.

Typing comprehensive Swift documentation with parameter explanations, usage examples, and edge cases takes 15-25 minutes per class, leaving codebases undocumented.

  1. Open Xcode with your Swift or Objective-C project.
  2. Position cursor in a documentation comment (/// or /**) or README file.
  3. Press ⌃+⌥+R to start recording.
  4. Speak your explanation, describing what the code does and how to use it.
  5. Press ⌃+⌥+R again-AICHE transcribes and inserts the formatted text.
  6. Add Swift-specific markup (like - Parameter:) manually if needed.

Heads-up: AICHE transcribes prose, not Swift syntax. Use it for documentation comments and README files, not for dictating actual code implementations.

The pro-tip: when documenting view controllers, dictate the user flow and state management while reviewing the IBOutlets and actions on screen. This produces documentation that matches actual UI behavior.

Result: documenting a 300-line view controller that takes 35 minutes of typing becomes 8 minutes of dictation, and your codebase ships with complete explanations.

Do this now: open any Swift file with an undocumented function, add a documentation comment above it, press ⌃+⌥+R, and dictate what it does and when to call it.
