Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing issues and this hasn't been reported yet
  • This is a single bug report (please file separate reports for different bugs)
  • I am using the latest version of Claude Code

What's Wrong?

Environment: • Device: iPad Pro M5 (brand new) • iPadOS: [latest, just updated] • Claude Code app: [version — Version 1.260409.0] • Account: [email protected] Description: Voice mode in Claude Code had been working reliably — ~15 hours/day for a full week. Approximately 90

minutes before filing, voice stopped working mid-conversation with no change on my end. Steps already taken: • Force-quit and reopened app • Rebooted iPad • Rebooted laptop • Updated iPadOS to latest • Uninstalled and reinstalled Claude Code app • Verified mic works: ChatGPT voice works fine, <Claude.ai> voice works fine on the same iPad, ChatGPT and iMessage work. • Laptop voice dictation (Windows 11 Pro, Alienware) also working fine right now.

Expected: Voice mode functions normally in Claude Code on iPad. Actual: When I press the dictation button it says “Sorry, we didn’t catch that. Transcription failed. Please try again.” This started towards the end of my last Claude code session around 86% token usage and carried over to the new session that I am currently in.

Working without dictation is not a sustainable action plan and I use my iPad M5 for 95% of my work with Claude Code; so this is definitely urgent.

Scope: Appears specific to Claude Code iPad app. <Claude.ai> voice on same device is unaffected.

extent analysis

TL;DR

The most likely fix for the voice mode issue in the Claude Code iPad app is to investigate and potentially reset or update the app's configuration or dependencies related to voice transcription.

Guidance

  • Verify that the issue persists after a full restart of the iPad and reopening the Claude Code app to ensure it's not a transient problem.
  • Check the app's settings or documentation for any specific configuration or permissions required for voice mode to function correctly, as it may have been altered or reset during the update or reinstall process.
  • Since the issue started after a period of heavy use and near the end of a session, it might be related to token usage limits or session management; review any relevant settings or limits in the app or its documentation.
  • Consider reaching out to the app's support or community to see if others have experienced similar issues, especially given that it's reported as a regression.

Notes

The provided information suggests that the issue is specific to the Claude Code iPad app and not related to the device's microphone or other apps. However, without more detailed error messages or logs, it's challenging to pinpoint the exact cause.

Recommendation

Apply a workaround by checking the app's settings and configuration for any potential issues or resets, and consider reaching out to the app's support for further assistance, as the problem seems to be related to the app itself rather than the device or operating system.
