Microsoft word dictation on mac4/26/2023 I could put the fondle slab on the standing desk, plug myself into the air pods, and walk around the room talking to myself like a crazy man.Īs a matter of fact, I just did and still am. I often find myself getting sleepy at about two in the afternoon, and it’d help if I was able to dictate into my iPad for an hour or so. This opens up the possibility of stalking around the office and dictating copy, as I like to do. They're just accurate as my wired headsets. But Word's on board dictation feature seems to handle the AirPods without a problem. It really wanted that hard connection between Mic and processor. One clear advantage Word does have – ugh, I can't believe I just wrote that - is in Bluetooth connectivity.ĭragon was always hopeless with wireless headsets. Kept wanting to call him Admirable Coal Hammer. And it doesn't like 'Kolhammer' much, either. Its main failing is in recognising the sort of weird made up words I tend to use in novel writing, especially sci fi stuff like The Shattered Skies. But it's more than good enough to fill in. It's not nearly as snappy, responsive or accurate as Dragon - or at least as the second last version of Dragon, which was the peak for MacOS. I still don't have a decent multi-app solution for speech recognition, but I have been using the built-in Dictation feature that ships with the latest version of MS Word (which I get thru a 360 subscription). You might recall I lost access to Dragon Dictate a while back when they stopped doing Apple updates. Been trying out my AirPods Pro as a dictation rig.
