History & Diagnostics

This page explains how to use recognition history, API Log, and the Recording Test page to troubleshoot provider setup, network requests, local model loading, and recording quality.

Recognition History

Recognition History lets you review previous voice input results and basic metrics.

Where to open

1. Open BiBi Keyboard settings
2. From the settings home page, open Recognition History
3. Browse by source, time, or content

What you can inspect

• Source: keyboard input, floating ball input, external input, etc.
• Provider: the ASR engine used for that recognition
• Transcript: the resulting text
• Timing: total time, ASR time, and AI post-processing time when available

API Log

API Log stores recent ASR / LLM call summaries. It is useful for checking whether a failure comes from credentials, endpoint configuration, model name, network issues, or a provider-side error.

Where to open

1. Open Settings Home → Recognition History
2. Tap API Log
3. Use the filters to show ASR, LLM, or failed calls

What is recorded

API Log includes:

• Provider, model, request host, and path
• Duration and success / failed / canceled status
• Request structure summary, response summary, or error message
• Local ASR model loading and inference summaries

Privacy

API Log stores only local request summaries. API keys, recorded audio, and full transcripts are not saved in API Log.

When to check API Log

• A newly configured API key fails during testing
• A provider suddenly stops working
• You want to verify which model or endpoint is being called
• A local model is slow on first use and you want to confirm model loading
• AI post-processing returns an empty result or an error

Recording Test

The Recording Test page lets you test the current ASR setup without opening the keyboard, while showing key recording and recognition status.

How to use

1. Open Settings Home → Recording Test
2. Confirm the current ASR configuration
3. Tap the record button and speak
4. Review the transcript, error message, timing, and audio analysis information

Recommended use cases

• Verify a newly configured provider before using it in the keyboard
• Confirm that a local model is downloaded and can load correctly
• Compare results after changing VAD, silent-part filtering, or upload compression
• Capture an error message or API Log summary before reporting a problem

30-day ASR Stats

The About page shows recent online ASR failure-rate statistics for the last 30 days. Use it to notice providers that are failing more often and decide whether to switch providers, enable a backup ASR engine, or adjust endpoint/network settings.

Clearing Records

You can clear recognition history or API Log from their page menus. This only deletes local history and summaries; it does not affect usage records in provider consoles.
