![]() ![]() ![]() If you haven’t tried full-blown dictation software like Dragon in recent years like myself, you’ll truly be amazed at how precise the program is at dictating error-free text as you speak naturally. After reading a bit of text and walking through a brief tutorial (about 10 minutes total), the app is remarkably accurate at understanding your voice and dictating speech consistently. When people think Nuance and Dragon Dictate they typically think speech to text dictation features. ![]() While half decent dictation features come with every Mac (and are powered by Nuance’s technology), the voice recognition features you get with latest version of Nuance’s Dragon Dictate for Mac go well beyond simply dictating speech to text. They simply aren’t accurate and consistent enough to replace our tried and trusted mouse and keyboard or touchscreen. There’s good reason too: the voice recognition features built into our devices have always had the reputation of being half-baked. For many of us, using voice recognition technology wasn’t even a consideration until features like dictation and Siri arrived on our iPhones and iPads. Using our voice to control computers has never really taken off.
