Add Wispr Flow to your LinkedIn profile

Last updated: November 5, 2026

Available on: Mac, Windows, iOS and Android. Not all accounts see this option. The numbered steps below describe desktop. Connecting LinkedIn is optional and free.

Add Wispr Flow to the Apps section of your LinkedIn profile to show how you use it. Connecting does not affect dictation or other Flow features.


Connect your LinkedIn account

You sign in directly on LinkedIn; Flow does not handle your LinkedIn password. Permission covers basic profile identity and read and write access to profile credibility signals so Flow can display its card.

For identity, Flow keeps only your LinkedIn member ID, discarding your name, picture and locale. LinkedIn receives your Wispr account identifier, product name, usage-derived statement and Top User status—not dictation contents. Flow does not post to your feed.

One LinkedIn account can link to only one Wispr account. Linking it to a second Wispr account produces the finish-connection error listed below.

  1. Open Settings → System → Extras in Flow, not Settings → Connectors.

  2. Click Connect beside Add Wispr Flow to LinkedIn.

  3. Sign in to LinkedIn in your default browser.

  4. Check that it is the LinkedIn account you want to use.

  5. Complete any two-factor authentication.

  6. Authorize the requested access.

  7. Check for “You're connected to LinkedIn!” in Flow or a green checkmark in the Extras row.

Sign-in opens in your default browser, not inside Flow; “Opening browser for LinkedIn consent...” appears for up to 10 seconds.

Completing authorization brings Flow forward on any screen. While status loads or Flow connects or disconnects, a “Loading” spinner replaces Connect, Try again or ⋯, preventing repeat actions.

Both browser result pages return you to Flow automatically; choose Return to Wispr Flow if needed.

The success screen’s View on LinkedIn opens your profile; close the screen with X. In Settings, ⋯ → View on LinkedIn opens the feed, not your profile; ⋯ also contains Disconnect. Flow cannot show which LinkedIn account is connected.

Other ways to start

Eligible Top Users who haven't connected may receive a one-time Unlock my trophy notification in the Flow bar and bell list. Its action starts the same authorization. Category muting does not hide this notification. Displaying the card or selecting its action marks it read, not archived.

Successful connection also archives the notification when notifications refresh, but this can fail; use Archive or Archive all if it remains. It moves to Archived and isn't resent after disconnecting.

If Flow displays the Add Wispr Flow to LinkedIn prompt, Connect LinkedIn starts the same authorization flow. The prompt advances to the success screen when authorization completes.

iOS location and retry message

On iOS, find Add Wispr Flow to LinkedIn under Settings → Connected apps. Tap Couldn't connect — tap to retry to retry a failed connection.

Android connection screen and messages

On Android, select Connect LinkedIn on the Add Wispr Flow to your LinkedIn profile screen. Failure messages include “Couldn't connect to LinkedIn. Please try again.” and “LinkedIn connection cancelled”.


What appears on your profile

  • Capability statement: Flow chooses it from your usage and onboarding role; the role alone can determine it. You cannot customize it. Accounts younger than 30 days receive a generic statement and are reassessed on the first nightly review after reaching 30 days.

  • Top User trophy: You need both 100,000 lifetime dictated words and 20,000 words in the last 30 days. Falling below either threshold removes the trophy. The 30-day total uses whole UTC days, excluding today; today's words count at the following day's review.

  • Updates: The card may not appear immediately after connecting. Flow reassesses the statement and Top User status nightly and updates LinkedIn only when either changes. Updates can be deferred beyond a nightly review; when usage information is unavailable, an existing card stays unchanged and is reassessed the next night.


Disconnect or reconnect

Warning: Disconnect takes effect immediately on Mac, Windows and Android; iOS asks for confirmation first. After disconnecting an active connection, Flow can show “Removed from your LinkedIn profile” even if the card remains, without a separate warning. Disconnecting in Flow does not revoke its app access on LinkedIn.

  1. Open Settings → System → Extras.

  2. Choose ⋯ → Disconnect on the connected LinkedIn row.

  3. Check your LinkedIn Apps section.

  4. Remove Flow’s app access on LinkedIn if the card remains.

To reconnect, repeat the connection steps and authorize LinkedIn again.


If the connection fails

On desktop, Flow waits 2 minutes, then rechecks the connection. If connected, no timeout error appears; if disconnected, the timeout message has no retry button. If the recheck itself fails, the controls return without a timeout message. Complete LinkedIn sign-in and two-factor authentication promptly when starting a new attempt.

If you closed the connect window, reopen Settings → System → Extras to check whether the connection completed.

Connection and disconnection messages disappear after 3 seconds by default. Cancellation is informational; start, finish and timeout failures are errors.

What you see

What to do

Failed to start LinkedIn connection

Flow couldn't start, possibly before opening the browser; click Connect again.

LinkedIn connection cancelled

Authorization was cancelled, denied or interrupted by a LinkedIn error; click Connect.

Couldn't finish connecting LinkedIn. Please try again.

Click Connect to restart authorization.

LinkedIn connection timed out. Please try again.

Start a new attempt with Connect in the Settings row.

Connection expired — reconnect to keep showing your usage

Expired or revoked access requires reauthorization: click Try again, which replaces ⋯ and its Disconnect option.

Browser reports an error but Flow reports success

Check the connected checkmark in Flow and your LinkedIn profile before retrying.

No LinkedIn connection to remove

There was no active connection; this is a successful outcome.

Failed to disconnect LinkedIn

Removal failed; choose ⋯ → Disconnect again, then contact support if it still fails.

After retrying authorization, use the success check in step 7; stop if connected.


Still stuck?

If retries fail or your connected card stays missing, use Help → Talk to support in Flow on Mac or Windows, or email support@wisprflow.ai. Include your platform, device, OS and Flow versions, a screenshot of the row or error, and what you tried.

In the Mac and Windows support form, attach one image up to 10 MB; extra or oversized files are rejected without attaching anything.

While signed in, the desktop form sends no app logs. It includes your preferences file only if 3 MB or smaller, plus system information—architecture, timezone region and app version—and form details.

If sending from the desktop form fails, only your message text is copied to the clipboard for retry, not attachments. An unsupported image type stops submission without creating a ticket or copying your message.

Before sign-in, this desktop form can show “Feedback sent!” without creating a support ticket; use email instead.
