Speech To Text

Speech To Text

On Android and iOS devices, it’s possible to record speech using the device’s native keyboard option to prepopulate text in a field. While the speech-to-text feature isn’t a feature of our platform per se, it can definitely assist you in speeding up the input of lengthy text data and notes in the field.

Android

Turn your speech into text by selecting the text box of a field and bringing up the keyboard. Then, press the keyboard’s microphone icon to record your voice in the text box.

iOS

iOS has very well-developed speech-to-text support. The support article on the Apple website explains how to easily dictate speech to your phone and quickly transcribe it into any of your app’s text fields.
