'Following using Siri to using the dictation for text in May...'

30/5/2022

This month we followed on from using Siri to using dictation for text. This new function is specifically for dictation. By enabling the Dictation function on your Apple device, typing a lot of text is a thing of the past. You do have to check that the translation of your spoken word is accurately recorded, just as you do when touch typing.

When the Dictation function is enabled, you can tap on the microphone symbol which is located to the left of the Space Bar on the keyboard, then speak. We all tried it out and had a lot of fun.
