To enter text by speaking
You can enter text by speaking, anywhere that you can enter text with the onscreen
keyboard.
1 Touch a text field.
2 Touch the Microphone key on the keyboard.
Or just swipe your finger across the keyboard from left to right.
3 When prompted to “Speak now,” speak what you want to enter.
Say “comma,” “period,” “question mark,” “exclamation mark,” or “exclamation
point” to enter punctuation.
When you pause, what you spoke is transcribed by the speech-recognition service
and entered in the text field, underlined. You can press the Delete key to erase
the underlined text. If you start typing or entering more text by speaking, the
underline disappears.
You can edit the text that you enter by typing or speaking. See “Editing text” on
page 44.
Text that you enter by speaking is

continue entering text to keep it.
