RealtimeSTT Desktop App – Chinese UI, Drag & Drop, Fully Local & Free

RealtimeSTT Desktop App – Chinese UI, Drag & Drop, Fully Local, Free

I built a desktop GUI wrapper for RealtimeSTT with a clean Chinese interface. Figured I'd share it here in case anyone needs a ready-to-use desktop app instead of CLI.

What it does

Drag in an audio or video file → get transcription text / SRT subtitles / TXT output. All processing is local using Whisper – no data leaves your machine.

Key features

• Chinese UI – fully translated interface (handy if you work with Chinese-speaking users)
• Drag & drop – no CLI needed, no config files
• Local only – works offline, privacy-first
• Multi-format export – plain text, SRT subtitles, timestamped output
• One-click installer – Windows .exe, no Python/Node knowledge required
• Free & open source

Try it

Would love feedback on:

• UI/UX – anything confusing?
• Feature gaps – what's missing?
• Bugs, crashes, edge cases

All feedback welcome!
