How do I fix voice transcription when it keeps translating English to Swedish (or wrong language)?

If your voice transcription is incorrectly translating English to Swedish (or another wrong language), this is a known issue where the underlying AI model sometimes guesses the wrong language during auto-detection.

Solution

Explicitly set the transcription language in your user profile preferences instead of relying on auto-detection:

1. Go to your user profile preferences
2. Find the voice/transcription settings section
3. Manually select "English" (or your preferred language) instead of "Auto-detect"
4. Save the settings

Why this happens

The AI model used for transcription sometimes makes incorrect assumptions about the language being spoken, especially when:

• There are mixed language environments
• The speaker has an accent
• Background noise affects detection
• The auto-detection algorithm makes an incorrect initial guess

Alternative approaches

If the issue persists after setting the language manually:

• Speak more clearly and distinctly
• Reduce background noise during voice input
• Consider restarting your session and trying again

Still having issues?

If manually setting the language doesn't resolve the transcription problems, contact our support team at support@abundly.ai with details about:

• Which language you're speaking
• Which language it's being transcribed as
• Your current language settings

This helps us identify if there are additional technical issues affecting your transcription experience.
