All,

Voice/note dictation software that works everywhere, on all of your 
devices! Notes are kept on their server, in your personal account. I'm 
currently taking advantage of their totally free version, which so far 
is excellent!

https://dictanote.co

Free voice dictation software that comes very close to replacing 
conventional voice recognition software such as Dragon Naturally 
Speaking. It is cloud-based and works through a web browser web client, 
so it works on all of your devices so long as your device can run the 
Google Chrome browser.

It works a lot better than the built-in voice dictation in Windows 10 
and in Windows 11 as well as on my Chromebook.

It has an extensive list of basic voice commands that allow you to 
manipulate your document and add punctuation. The default commands are 
free, and custom commands cost an account subscription of $4 per month 
for the professional version.

I followed their instructions and created a web app on Windows, Chrome 
OS, and on my Android cell phone as well. You can also use it on Linux, 
which is a nice thing considering Linux doesn't have a built-in voice 
recognition system.

I now have in Windows, Linux, and Chrome OS, and icon on my taskbar that 
launches the app in a standalone Google Chrome web app.

Attached is a PDF of the complete list of voice commands that are included.

One of the really nice features is you can start dictating on your cell 
phone and continue dictating on your computer, and then take what you 
have and paste it into an email or a Word document.

I spend most of my time working on Chrome OS and this is now my default 
voice dictation software for all the email that I write.

On Android, you can follow these instructions to create an "App" on 
yo_ur phone:_

You can r_un Dictanote in a normal browser tab, or as a stand alone "Web 
Ap_p". This is what the web app looks like:
