WhisperTranscribe.ai Help & Support Center

Need help with billing, subscriptions, account access, file uploads, or transcription issues? You can find the most common solutions below first.

If you still need help, please email support@whispertranscribe.ai or use the live chat in the bottom-right corner of the website.

To help us resolve your issue faster, please include:

  • the email used for payment
  • your login method (Google, Apple, or email login)
  • the approximate payment date and time
  • any receipt, invoice, or order screenshot
  • screenshots of the issue or error message

Common Problems

I upgraded, but my account still shows a free plan; my paid access disappeared

This usually happens because the account you are currently logged into is not the same one you used when making the payment. Please make sure you are using the exact same login method that you used at checkout.

Examples:

  • Paid with Google login -> please continue logging in with the same Google account
  • Paid with Apple login -> please continue using the same Apple Sign In
  • Paid with email and password -> please continue using the same email login

I used Apple Sign In, but I can't find my subscription

If you originally registered or purchased through Sign in with Apple and selected Hide My Email, please make sure you continue using the same Apple login method and keep using Hide My Email when signing in. Only then can the system correctly match your original account.

If you switch to a different login method, or do not use the same Apple login method, your subscription may appear to be missing.

If this still does not resolve the issue, please send support your receipt details and approximate payment time, and we will help verify the correct account.


I get an error when trying to cancel my subscription

Sometimes this may be caused by a temporary server issue. Please try a few more times first.

If the problem continues, please send a screenshot of the error page to support and let us know at which step the error occurs: whether it happens on the Account page, the Manage Subscription page, or the final cancellation step.


I did not receive an invoice

If your payment has not been completed successfully, your account cannot be activated.

This usually means that the payment is still in pending status or has not actually been completed in the billing system.

Please check your inbox and spam folder first. If you still cannot find it, please send support a screenshot of your payment attempt.


My bank shows the payment as successful, but the website does not

Sometimes banks first show a temporary authorization or a pending charge. This does not necessarily mean that we have successfully received the payment on our side.

If the order was not actually completed on our side, you may not receive an invoice yet and your account may not be activated immediately.


My transcription is stuck or frozen

If your transcription stays in processing for a long time, please stop uploading new files and contact support. Please include your account email, file name, and a screenshot.


I'm having trouble uploading a large file

The current maximum file size is 5 GB. If your file is larger than 5 GB, the upload may fail or return an error.

For large files, we recommend that you:

  • split the file into smaller parts before uploading
  • or convert it to MP3 first to improve upload speed and stability

You can convert audio or video to MP3 here:

https://whispertranscribe.ai/convert-audio-video-to-mp3

Some workplace, public, or restricted networks may also block large file uploads. If you keep seeing upload errors, we recommend trying again on a more stable network.


My transcript is broken into too many short lines

If your transcript appears in many short lines, it is usually caused by timestamps or speaker segmentation. You can turn off segmentation and timestamps, or export a cleaner reading format when available.


I reached my plan limit

Plan limits are based on the amount of transcription time included in your subscription. If you have already used all the minutes included in your plan, you may need to upgrade or purchase additional capacity, depending on your plan.


Billing & Account

How do I cancel my subscription?

Please go to the billing portal, or open Account Settings -> Manage, then choose the cancellation option.


What if I want a refund?

Please review the refund policy first:

https://whispertranscribe.ai/return-policy


How do I download my invoice or receipt?

You can download your invoice or receipt from the billing portal or from the relevant section in your account settings.

In many cases, a copy will also be sent to your email.


How do I add company or tax information to my invoice?

If the billing portal supports invoice editing, you can update your billing details there. Future downloaded invoices will usually include your company name or tax information.

If this is not currently supported, please email us the information you want to appear on the invoice, and we will reply within 2 business days.


How do I reset my password?

You can use the password reset option on the login page, or reset it from your account settings.

If you originally signed in with Google or Apple, please continue using the same login method unless your account has already been changed to email/password login.


How do I change my email address?

This is not currently supported.


How do I delete my account?

Please first check whether there is an account deletion option in your account settings. If you cannot find it, please contact support using the email associated with your account.


Using WhisperTranscribe.ai

Can I record directly and then transcribe?

Yes. In addition to uploading audio or video files, you can also record directly on the online recording page and then transcribe:

https://whispertranscribe.ai/transcribe-record


What can WhisperTranscribe.ai be used for?

WhisperTranscribe.ai can be used for audio/video transcription, subtitle generation, content summaries, translation, and turning spoken content into clear, readable text.


Does WhisperTranscribe.ai offer a free preview?

Yes. With free usage, you may only see a partial transcript preview. If you upgrade afterward, you may need to upload the file again to generate the full transcript and unlock full export options.


What does "transcription minutes" mean?

Transcription minutes are calculated based on the duration of the audio or video you upload, not the number of words in the final text.

For example:

  • A 10-minute audio file uses about 10 transcription minutes
  • A 45-minute video uses about 45 transcription minutes

How do I enable speaker identification?

If your file and selected language support speaker identification, you can enable it before starting the transcription.


How can I improve transcription accuracy?

Please make sure you select the correct language before starting.

Also, try to keep the audio clear and the speech easy to understand whenever possible, as this can significantly improve accuracy.


Can I translate my transcript?

Yes. If translation is supported in your current workflow, you can translate the transcript after transcription is completed.


Subtitles, Export & Formatting

How do I add subtitles or captions to my video?

After uploading and transcribing your file, open the transcript and download the SRT subtitle file when available. SRT files can be imported into most video editors and media players.


How do I adjust subtitle line length or segmentation?

You can configure subtitle-related settings before or after transcription on the following page:

https://whispertranscribe.ai/subtitle-generator


What export formats are supported?

Supported export formats include:

DOCX, PDF, TXT, SRT, VTT, STL, EDL, XML, CSV, XLSX, HTML, JSON, FCPXML


Do I need to upload my file again after upgrading?

Sometimes, yes. If you first generated a free preview and only upgraded afterward, the system may require you to upload the file again in order to generate the full transcript and unlock full export options.
