Who is voice typing for?
Students use it to draft essays and take lecture notes. Writers and bloggers use it to get a first draft down quickly. Professionals dictate emails, reports and meeting notes. Content creators use it to prepare scripts and subtitles. It is also a helpful accessibility tool for anyone who finds typing slow or painful.
Tips for the most accurate transcription
Use a quiet room and keep the microphone close to your mouth. A headset or earphones with a built-in mic usually give better results than a laptop microphone. Speak in complete sentences at a steady pace, and select the exact language and accent you are speaking, for example English (India) or বাংলা (বাংলাদেশ). For the best accuracy, open the page in Google Chrome or Microsoft Edge.
