Urdu transcription returns the text in Urdu script, right to left, ready to copy or save as subtitles. It does well on clear recordings, and names and numbers are worth checking. Spoken Urdu and Hindi are close, and the page expects Urdu, so the text comes back in Urdu script.

Questions

Does it translate Urdu into English?

Yes: translate Urdu to English audio. This page keeps the text in Urdu.

Which script does it write in?

Urdu script, right to left. How it looks depends on the fonts on your device, and players that support right-to-left text show the subtitles that way.

My recording mixes Urdu and English. Will that work?

Try audio to text, which works out the language itself, and compare on a short clip. This page expects Urdu throughout.

Is it free?

Yes: 90 minutes a day, with no account.
